earthly carried North with him 200
pounds of camphor leaves, from which
he has since distilled a sufficient
amount of camphor gum and oil to
convince him that the possibilities of
camphor as a commercial product and
money-maker are far superior to the
raising of citrus fruits. His faith is
so strong that he proposes to plant
thirty acres of camphor trees next fall
and positively asserts that in ten
years, under ordinarily favorable con-
ditions such grove will bring an in
come of 1000 a. year at low esti-
mate. He urges our people to procure
seed and start groves of camphor trees
as rapidly as possible and will himself,
at as early date as necessary, set up
a suitable distilling plant to extract
the gum. We hope this will prove
TO be the beginning of Il new and i'm
portant industry which will add much
TO the wealth and resources of De
