BIG TREEs.-The big-tree of
California, is surpassed in size
only by the eucalyptus of
Australia, while the redwood may
claim the honor of being the third
largest tree in the world. The largest
known redwood Is $6G feet in height
aud twenty feet in diameter. The big
tree attains a greater diameter, but
does not reach proportionately
greater height Thus there are big
trees recorded having diameter OF
forty-one feet, but we have seen none
mentioned being over 400 feet in height.
The height of the largest known
eucalyptus tree is stated to be 40 feet,
but the diameter is only twenty-seven
feet. So while taller than the largest
big-tree, if their proportions are the
same, the California tree has about
twice the bulk of the one which grows
in Australia.-.T Nicholas.
