NATURAL ORDER 



RHAMNE^E. 



THIS Order is fairly well distributed over the earth, and Australia has one or two good representatives of its 

 timbers. Red Ash is a particularly fine timber for cabinet use, the texture, weight, and colour being suitable for this 

 special class of work. It is rarely found in the market and so is not in ordinary use. 



SPECIES ILLUSTRATED IN COLOUR : 

 Red Ash (Alphitona excelsa, Reiss).
