After carefully considering the still

NO TIMBER in SOUTH AFRICA.

The vast veldts and kopjes of South
Africa are almost destitute Of trees.
In fact. the, only trees Of any size In
all that country are the blue gums,
which are not native to South Africa,
the original stock having been i'm
ported from Australia many years ago.
In Australia the blue gum tree often
grows to a height of 300 feet, though
away from It's native haunts 1t rarely
reaches such a growth. The blue gum
yields the eucalyptus oil, one OF the
must valuable Of antiseptics. while 1t
is claimed that the leaves, rolled into
the shape Of cigars and smoked, will
cure asthma.
