How Camphor Is Made.

Camphor is the result of evaporating an
essential oil found in two different trees
the Cinnamomum camphora. which grows
IN China and Japan, and the Dipterocarpus
camphora of Sumatra and Borneo. From
these two trees it is obtained in very differ
ent manners. In the Cinnamomum it ex-
lists in root and branch stems and leaves,
which are chopped small and put into earth
en- vessels, which are heated. These vessels
are covered with hoods. and rice straw is
placed IN them. The camphor is volatalized
and rises. 1t condenses on the straw, from
which 1t is afterward cleared. In the Dip
terocarpus il is found in the trunk in a sol
id form. and it is obtained by cutting the
tree down and splitting it open. 1t is found
IN pieces from to feet long and about as
thick as mans arm. a moderate sized
tree will yield about 10 pounds of camphor,
a larger one about twice that quantity.
inns Kind is more highly esteemed than the
other, so that in Japan 200 pounds of native
camphor are valued at one pound of the
Bornean.-New York Telegram
