FUCALYPTUS AND MALARIA.

Before ii was known that the malarlal
poison was introduced into TIN blood by
mosquitoes II was a common practice 10
plant eucalyptus. or blue gum, trees IN
injected areas Right up to the end of the
nineteenth century the idea was commonly
held that malaria was caused 10y the
pestilcntial exhalations which arose from
the marshy ground As Is well known, the
eucalyptus tree produces enormous
quantities of a volatile oil that has marked
antiseptic properties The dtSlnfectlng
odors exhaled by the leaves we're supposed
to correct the harmful vapOrs of the
marshes This is now known to be a
totally wrong impression, Yet the TACT
remains that the planting of eucalyptus
trees did result IN freeing districts from
the infection. Many eases might be men
toned. but one of the most striking is the
instance of a district about twenty miles
from Algiers 1t was not possible for any
one to reside IN the locality without con-
tracing malarial fever In an aggravated
form Thirteen thousand eucalyptus
trees were planted over the area IN one
year Within a year, malarial fever was
almost unknown in the district, the disease
disappearing as soon as the trees were two
or three yards in height
What IS the connection between the
eucalyptus and the disappearance of the
malarial trouble? This has beenonly very
recently explained There Is probably no
tree having a greater avidlty for water
than the eucalyptus. Experiments with
seedlings grown in water have shown that
a baby blue-gum will take up the liquid
at an extremely rapid rate Compare the
two pictures showing an experiment with
a eucalyptus anda plum tree As blue
gums grow at marvellous rate (often
much as ten or twelve feet is added to-
their height in single season, the cons
sumption of moisture from the soil goes
on at a rapidly increasing rate. Now, II IS
well known that the malarial poison is
introduced into the blood of man through
the agency Of certain variety OF mosquito
lAnophelcs.. and the dwelling-place of
these insects, when in the larval stage, is
TO be found in pools of water With the
planting Of the eucalyptus trees the pools
disappear and the marshy land becomes
comparatively dry Thus the breeding
places of the mosquitoes are destroyed
and the insects are no longer able to carry
on their pernicious activities. "-S. Leon
ard Bastin, in St Nicholas
