A nation at war makes strange demands on its public servants. When the government decided to launch a huge program of rubber production through the cultivation of guayule, it blithely tossed the job into the lap of the Forest Service--thus precipitating a scramble for botanical reference books to find out what on earth guayule might be. This artcile describes the project that ensued, explains how so unprepossessing a citizen of the plant world came to burst, Cinderella-like, upon the public consciousness, and speculates as to its future.
