THE CHINESE WOOD-OIL TEEE. 7 



The Department of Agriculture will have on hand one year from 

 now for distribution to bona fide experimenters a limited number of 

 1-year-old trees, and these will be ready to send out in February and 

 March. Applicants for them must have the necessary conditions of 

 soil, temperature, and rainfall and the actual intention to take up 

 the serious study of this industry before their requests for plants can 

 be granted. Experiments with single trees have been made, and 

 what is now desired is the creation of acre plantations in the hands 

 of private individuals.
