Golden Profit in the Eucalyptus
Tree Flourishes in California, viii Rapidly
Replenish Denuded Forests s s f: f Co. 1, e

The story of eucalyptus is the mod
ern story of Jack and his beanstalk.
Only beanstalk which could attain
great height in a night could meet
jack requirements; only hardwood
tree which can attain maturity in a
decade can meet the requirements of
the shortsighted American who has
sacrificed his groves of oak and walnut
and hickory. The eucalyptus tree in
the modern story is much more sub
stantial thing than the beanstalk in
the fable, and its growth is no less
sure. Eucalyptus will save the timber
situation in the United States, not
wholly perhaps, but appreciably. And
since California is the only state in
the Union having the climatic condi-
tions absolutely essential to the grow
ing Of this wonderful tree, it is plain
that the profits will be reaped in Cali
fornia.

IA rugged, billy area, which was
practically useless for any of the crops
he was engaged in growing-to euca-
lyptus. Several months ago this far
mer was offered 100000 for his 200

at the rate of $4,000 an acre. The

Rapid Growth of Trees

In its first year the slender shoot
will sometimes grow six inches in a
single day. There is a large grove in
San joaquin county whose trees, now
four years old, have an average height
of 81 feet and an average diameter of
5 inches. This is height growth of
II feet in year. The average is a
little less, being from IL to Is feet a
year. One Seeding at the age of 8
years was 125 feet in height and 36
inches in diameter. This tree grew
in sandy loan where there was sulirri-
gation-ideal growing conditions.
At from three to five years OF age
eucalyptus trees make excellent fuel,
though they are rapidly becoming toe
valuable to sacrifice in this way. Al
from seven to nine years of age the
wood Of the trees is good for wagon
tongues, insulator pins and other
rough usages. At from nine to
twelve years the wood is superb for al
hardwood purposes. and its durability
and polish equal that ofany hardwood
grown in America. After 10 years
Of age it is often profitable to allow
the trees to stand, because their value
increases year by year. There ar
some conspicuous examples Of valuable
matured groves in California. Har
rison Mecham owns a grove. Of trees
22 years old at Stony Point, which il
valued at $4,000 an acre.

Wealth in Eucalyptus

In fact, a brief study of the eucalyp-
tus bulletins which have been issued
by the forestry breau of the United
States department of agriculture and
and experiment station of the Univer-
sity Of California impress the reader
with the fact that the discovery of the
possibilities Of eucalyptus culture in
California is of more Importance, even
to the future wealth of the state than
was the discovery of gold. Unesti-
mated millions of dollars will be made
form eucalyptus groves and the re-
wards, unlike the rewards in mining,
will be evenly distributed. Every man
who grows eucalyptus trees with any
degree Of intelligence and care is as.
sured Of his profits.
Exactly what the profits will be de
ponds, naturally, upon the rapidity
with which the grove comes to matur
ity. Though hundreds Of eucalyptus
groves Of varying size are now grow
ing in California, these have, as a rule
been planted upon land which was Of
little value for any other purpose
Vel on this waste land the develop
ment of the trees has been more thar
astonishing. The trees duplicate full
ly their performance in their NATIVE
Australia. The Californian nov
learns that he can afford to devote hi
very best land to eucalyptus, and thu
results will be proportionately greater
Authoritative facts and figures con
corning rate of growth are at hand.

the trees, and that by cutting and
selling them himself he could obtain
that sum, and he would still have his
land with the stumps, from which new
trees would spring up more rapidly
than than the original grove had
grown. Thus he estimates that his
200 acres of "useless" land has piled
up profit for him at the rate of 81 so
an acre year for Is years. He says
that his only mistake was in not plant
ing lis useful" acreage to eucalyptus
Also
The usual basis for figuring the val
uation Of a eucalyptus plantation is
the value of the lumber contained in
the trees. The prices of telephone
and telegraph poles, piling, fence posts,
railroad ties and fuel are based upon
the board feet measurements. In
selling the product of grove the
owner will, Of course, figure to dispose
Of it for purpose which will pay the
pighest price, consequently he will be
unwilling to sell for any purpose at a
lower price than the timber is worth
as lumber.

Value of the Lumber

The Forestry society of California
has issued a bulletin giving the result
of its Investigations along this very
line. In part this bulletin says:
1.-The price at which eucalyptus lum-
Der can be sold 10 years hence is some
what problematical, owing to the rap
id decrease of hardwood and the con-
stantly advancing prices. Present
ggures are taken as a basis from which
to figure the present value of groves.
The different varieties of eucalyptus
lumber vary somewhat in price. The
kinds used for interior finish, furniture
cabinet work, ETC., bring higher prices
than the kind used in heavy construc-
ton, agricultural implements. etc. 1t
is ascertained that the present retail
price of finished eucalyptus lumber is
1925 to $40 per thousand; eucalyptus
flooring, 500 to S110; dimension
timber used in wagon construction
farming implements, etc, $50 to 500
The average wholesale price, accord
ing to the best information at hand
is about $40 per thousand except fol
selected lumber, which will demand {
higher wholesale price. If $40 il
taken as the average wholesale prize
of all grades of eucalyptus lumber TIL
value of lumber in tree Il inches b.
80 feet is exactly s.. This price
then, is the average value OF the euca
lyptus tree 10 years old growin'
throughout the state Of California TIC

WAR BALLOON LEAVING SHED
Especial Correspondence.)

toptCEdl SOFTCSBOlluChtCsI
OMAHA, Neb., June Uncle
Sam has started training his SOL
Idier boys in aerial fighting. A
new type of war balloon invented
by two officers of the kaiser's
army, and adopted by Germany,
has been purchased by Uncle Sam
to experiment with.
It's a huge gas bag and resem-
bles monster yellow grub
worm" like the kind boys use as
bait for catfish. The balloon
proper is long, cylindrical bag,
attached to the rear of which is a
large, loose air bag. Balance is
maintained by the force of the
air in the appendage, which also
automatically releases the gas in
the cylinder as the balloon as
|cends.
This is the first real war bal
loon the government has had,
and in that it is far behind Eng
land, France and Germany, where
the opinion is decided that the
wars of the future will be fought
In the air; that the largest and
most powerful of battleships will
be helpless in the hands of an
aerial fighting craft that can drop
down upon the "dreadnaught" a
powerful explosive and hurry
away before the astonished crew
has time to train a gun upward.
Experiments with the war bal
loon were made at Fit. Omaha dur
ing the aeronautical school" May
lila. Capt. Chas. De Forrest
Chandler was teacher in bal
looming to class of 20 captains
and first lieutenants from FIT.
Kas.
Three captive balloons, for the
Kindergarten class, dirigible
balloon for the seniors, and the
war balloon for the post gradu-
ates, was the order of lessons.
The war department is enthu-
siastic about the way the army
officers took to the idea of getting
up in the clouds to fight, and as a
result of this years school there
Twill probably be similar sessions
every year, for it will take lots of
practice upon the part of Uncle
Sans soldiers to get into the Eu-
Iropean class of sky warriors.
