 Bhotea pergunnahs of Keinaon. Fl. Aug. to Oct. Sometimes thirty feet 

 in circumference. The wood is particularly valued for its durability, 

 and is therefore much used in the construction of Himalayan houses, 

 as are also the planks of Abies Pindrow. Deodar yields a somewhat 

 coarse, very fluid kind of turpentine, vphich is much valued in Upper 

 India as a stimulating application to foul and indolent ulcers. The 

 leaves and small twigs of the Deodar are likewise brought down to 

 the plains, being much used in native medicine. {Royle.)
