Tho Oregon Larcil.

After experimenting with Oregon Larch
lumber to test its fitness and adaptability fot
making doors, moul.ling,, capitalists have
put up mill in Oregon for cutting this TIM
bcr. From the careful tests they have made
they have come to the conclusion that Oregon
larch Is the coming lumber of the coast for
the purposes above named. II is stronger and
tougher than cedar, has no taste OF smell, no
pitch, takes q better finish, holds screws and
nails better ,and better fitting joints and lemons
saD be made with it.
This Oregon larch is noble tree found on
dense IN forests in some places, the trees hav-
ing an average diameter Of six feet. 1t is not
found below an altitude Of 800 or 5000 feet,
and is but little known comparatively. The
trees grow to u great height, and surpass the
well known red and yellow or Douglass fir
1t is not rellly larch, as IT, tar2arack, which
is 4 coniferous tree with decicluous leaves, is
the American larch and the European iarch
