following four are those which have
been principally planted in California:
Eucalyptus globulus, the Blue Gum.
This is by far the most common spe--
cies. 1t is the most rapid grower and
makes excellent fuel, being probably
as good as any for that purpose Ii
withstands a1kali we'll, but the young
trees are easily killed by frost:
Eucalyptus rostrata, the Red G1nl
This species has been considerably
planted and is increasing in favor. 1t
does not grow as rapidly as blue gum,
but otherwise is superior to it. The
wood is better than the globulus, and
the tree withstands more drought,
frost and alkali.
Eucalyptus corynocalyx, the Sugar
Gum, is more hardy than either OF
the others, and a valuable tree in
many situations.
Eucalyptus tereticornis, the Forest
Red Gum, is less known, but is now
being considerably planted
When the value and qualities of the
different species of eucalyptus have
been more fully tested and de-
monstrated, and the adaptation of
different kinds for different purposes
and localities has been more fully de-
termined, the Importance which the
crop may come to have in the agri-
culture of California may easily be
foreseen. We would refer those inter
ested in the matter especially to the
Forestry Station of Santa Monica,
where a special study of this matter
is being made and where large trees
OF some sixty species Of eucalyptus
may be seen growing.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-05-08

and possibilities OF such planting that
we will direct attention.
AS a fuel proposition alone It is
difficult to see how a good eucalyptus
plantation can fail to yield good IN
terest on the investment. With the
scarcity and high prices OF wood in
most parts of California and the de-
mand for eucalyptus wood tor fuel
there is no reason to expect anything
but good prices for all that can be
raised. This is at present, and may
always be, the chief object in growing
the crop And yet, with variety Of
kinds available, and with their varying
qualities and the growing scarcity Of
timber, it is not unreasonable to ex-
pect that in all the uses of wood and
lumber eucalyptus is in the future TO-
play an important part. AS yet a beg i'm
ming has scarcely been made in testing
the adaptibility Of the various species
for mechanical purposes. AT present,
next to the use of fuel, we may men,
ton the demand for railroad ties, fence
posts, telephone and other wire-sup-
porting poles, piling and similar pur-
poses of whole trunks. The use of
eucalyptus for sawed lumber can
scarcely be considered as we'll begun
as yet.
Aside from the value of the wood
there is still another possible source
Of profit in the extraction Of the oil
which gives the characteristic odor to
the leaves of many of the species.
The value of this oil as a liniment
and for other medical purposes is be-
ing highly 1auded, and when more
generally known and used may develop
an important source OF revenue from
disti1ling the oil from the leaves and
twigs of the trees when cut for wood
or timber.
Species of eucalyptus flourish ex-
ceeding1y we'll all over California at
the lower attitudes. In all our principal
valleys the trees may be seen. AS.
commercial proposition, for acreage
planting, good fruit or vegetable land,
capable of irri cation, is usually con-
sidered too valuable for this purpose.
1t is rather land with natural moisture
at not too great depth where irri-
cation facilities have not been develop
ed and where the valuation is com
paratively low, which is to be looked
upon as eucalyptus land. The trees
will withstand considerable range OF
conditions and grow we'll when once
fairly started. They are considerably
tolerant Of alkali, flourish both in wet
and dry ground, if the water level is
not too deep in the latter case. but
cannot be successfully grown where
too low temperatures prevail. The
more tender species especially, and the
young trees of all kinds, are decidedly
susceptible to frost.
Eucalyptus is grown from seed, an
abundance of which is produced on
the trees This is extremely small
and fine, produced usually in the fall
in pods or capsules. The seed pods
should be gathered just before they
open and spread on sheets in the sun
They soon open, the seed may be
shaken out, and may be planted at

EUCALYPTUS GROWING.

The following, from the California
Fruit Grower, is valuable to all who

If there is one proposition above

al
reasonable prospect Of profit in euca-
lyptus culture in this State. In view
Of the present very active interest IN
the subject, discussion at this time
of some Of its features may be OF
interest The eucalypts are family
of trees, natives of Australia and
neighboring islands, many species Of
which have been introduced into Cali
fornia within the last thirty years. The
trees are evergreen, with flat, usually
elongated, leathery leaves and char
acteristic odor. Of the many species
known to exist some sixty or more
have been introduced into California,
although only four or five have been
at all generally planted, and one has
by far the predominance. The trees
are adapted only to a seml-troplcal
climate, being in most cases injured
by a temperature below 25 degrees F.
AS represented by the species most
commonly known in California, the
eucalyptus tree is known particularly
for it's almost phenomenally rapid
growth, producing at the same time
a wood of considerable hardness and
of good fuel value. The size which
some IF these trees have attained in
a given number Of years is almost be-

Of growth Of trees to which we are
accustomed. Used almost entirely at
first for wind breaks and avenues, a
new era Of eucalyptus planting is now

different parts Of the State with the
idea of harvesting the wood itself as
definite crop. It is to the methods

A Farm Dog.

A good collie dog, when properly
trained, will drive farm animals much
more carefully and with much less
worry to them than does the ordinary
person; and when a poor helper and
worthless dog are set to chasing
them look out for trouble In the
case of cows, garget, milk fever,
bloody milk, shrinkage of milk, milk
tainted with fever, cream that will
not come to butter-these are among
the results that arise from frightened,
worried and overheated cows. The
owner may think himself fortunate
if at the same time there are no
legs broken. Collies make good dogs
generally, but they are specially fit
ted for this sort of service-Ho ONE

once, in the fall, or saved until the
next spring. They are planted in
shallow boxes or flats, covered
with fine soil, and kept moist
until termination begins, which
is usually in about ten days. AS soon
as the seedlings are an inch or two
high, or large enough to handle, they
should be transplanted to pots or
other flats, in the latter case about
two inches apart. The young seed
lings are very delicate and need care
full attention to keep them growing in
good condition. In growing a large
quantity a lath house or some similar
covering is necessary for good results.
When six inches high the seedlings
are ready for transplanting to the
permanent field. Experience has
shown that seedlings Of this size are
much more satisfactory and make
better subsequent growth than those
which are grown to height Of two
or three feet before planting. If the
seed was sown in the fall, the trees
should be ready for planting in March,
before the end of the rainy season,
so that there will still be sufficient
moisture to promote growth With
dry soils where there is no possibility
whatever of watering the young trees,
the seed should be sown in July, which
will bring the trees on ready to plant
in December, when plenty Of moisture
is to be expected This is not always
feasible, however, an account of frost
If the ground is dry it is desirable
to water the trees when set out, and
if possible they are usually watered
more or less during the first two years.
Some are also installing permanent
irrigation facilities for eucalyptus
plantations, believing that the accel-
Grated growth will warrant this. but
this is not necessary to secure an ex-
cellent growth on land adapted to the
crop.
The trees are planted eight by five
feet eight by four, six by SIX, or
even four by four in some instances
The idea is usually to thin Out part
Of the trees in few years, the wood
thus obtained having value for fuel or
possibly for small fence posts. It is
desirable to cultivate the ground for
the first two years, after which pro-
lection from fire is the only attention
necessary.
The rapid-growing species OF euca-
lyptus under favorable circumsraces
make prodigious growth. Starting
in spring at six inches, height of
as many feet the following fall is to
be looked for. In two years height
Of twenty to twenty-five feet and a
diameter of three inches is not an
exceptional growth. A height of fifty
feet in six years and one hundred feet
in ten years is a good average de-
velopment, with a diameter Of two
feet at fifteen years. At thirty years
the tree may reach a height Of one
hundred and fifty feet and a diameter
OF three to five feet.
For fuel purposes the trees may be
cut at from five to- eight years, after
which they will sprout up pr2fuse1y
from the butt. About three sprouts
should be allowed to grow from each
stump, and in another five years an
other crop of wood may be harvested.

TEMPE
HELD UNDER A PEACE BOND
The Hearing of Robt. Bowen Yester'
 day Afternoon.

The hearing of Robert Bowen charg- cd with assaulting his mother-in-law. Mrs. Oehrlein. on the Hermosa Tract last Monday morning. was held in Jus tice Nielsen't court yesterday after noon. Mir. Bowen was brought in from his home on the desert the night before bv Constable Sigala. He had gone there immediately after the trouble at home Monday and upon the arrival of the constable Tuesday afternoon made no effort to avoid arrest and ap- peared rational in every respect. From the evidence submitted yesterday a. the hearing it developed that 1t is more or less of a family row, but at the same time it is evident from that and past circumstances. that MT. Bowen is not absolutely in his right mind at times. Mrs. Oehrlein and Mrs. Bowen both testified that the morning of the trouble, MT. Bowen was preparing to leave for the ranch and intended tak- ing Mrs. Bowen and their little girl along Mrs. Bowen objected to going ou the grounds that from past events. she did not consider it safe. neither did she or her mother want the little girl to go along for the same reason. Mrs. Oerhlein testified. and her evil dence was corroborated by Mrs. Bow en. that she went to the rig and made an effort to take the little girl out, whereupon Mir. Bowen struck her in the face and getting out of .:Ie buggy continued to strike and abuse her. Mir. Bowen directly cOntradicted this. and claimed that his mother-in-law struck him first. In either case. it was evil dent that g fight had ensued as Mrs. Oehrlein and MT. Bowen both showed signs of combat. MT. Bowen contend ed that his wife was in the rig with him. and that Mrs. Oehrlein pulled him out of the rig and began beating him and what damage he did to her was done in self defense. Though he ap- pcared rational at the time of the hearing. it is the opinion of those who have known him for the past twenty five years that he would have never committed the acts testified to had ne been in his right mind at the time.
 In view of the circumstances as above related, Justice Nielsen found the defendant guilty but to await de- velopments. merely held him under a five hundred dollar bond to preserve the peace.
