Some Valuable Woods.

Many of the finest woods in exist-
ence are vet unknown, CIR only slightly
known, to the manufacturers Of wood
In the civilized world. The woods of
Central and South America are, per-
maps, the most remarkable as we'll as
the least known. In the yet untouch-
I'D forests Of this continent are many
woods far finer than any of those now
In use. These woods range from pure
white to Jet black in color, and many
OF them are most beautifully marked
and veined. Some of them are so hard
that they turn the edges of axes,
chisels, and ether tools, while the
band saw only cuts them slowly. In
the Columbian Exposition there were
many displays of little known woods,
and the finest oil them were those from
the Argentine Republic, Brazil and
other South American countries. Some
OF these Southern woods yielded to the
teeth of the band saw not the ordin-
ary sawdust. but fine powder, fine as
the finest flonr, so hard were the
woods. Some of the m burnt very
slowly Others possess qualities tnat
keep them free from insects. Some
OF them seem to be practically inde-
structible by air and water. All alcng

the snow, line on those great eleya.
tions, throughout the great river val.
leys and in some of the wide areas OF
the level country In South America
are great forests of fine woods that are
specially fit fer the finest cabinet and
furniture work. and also for ship
building, carpentry and other indus.
trial arts in which wood is the raw
material" These great forests are
now an unknown quantity in the COM
mercial world. but they will come
rapidly into the knowledge of men
and into Industrial use when once the
railroad has reached them. Before

South American and Central American
republics will be threaded by railroads
