stone, and there are rocks everywheres although the soil seems wonderfully rich. The cedars of Lebanon may have been great in the past, but they have now dis appeared. The only ones left are situ- ated about nine or 10 hours from Baalbek. The trees grow in the thin soil, which GOV. CTS the white limestone, the ground be- ing coated with spines, cones and leaves. The oldest trees are seven in number. and the tallest Is not more than 80 feet high. The largest of all is about IS feet thick, so you see they are mere sprouts in comparison with the big trees of California and quite small as compared with the giants of Washington and Ore- gon The cedars which were taken for the temple probably came from the region
 where the old cedars stand, although other parts of the Lebanon mountains may have then been covered with woods. The logs must have been cut in the forests and carried over the mountains. . dis. tance of 70 or 50 miles, to the seacoast. The rafting was done under the direction of King Hiram of Tyre, and the logs were probably lowed down to Jana, and thence carried up the mountains of Judea to Jerusalem. a distance of about 40 miles. The cedars bear cones which are about as large as a goose egg, the leaves or spines of the cones being solid rather than de- tached, as those of our cedars at home. The wood is whitish in color; it is soft and for building is far inferior to cypress or pine.
