" Splendid timber to last in the ground." Fruits varying in size. Acacia 

 Creek, Macpherson Range. (W. Dunn, 2 E.G. 157.) In sending some specimens from 

 Acacia Creek, Macpherson Range, close to the border, Mr. W. Dunn gets indignant. 

 " This timber is of great value for lasting under ground ; its other virtue is : will stand 

 the' sun without cracking. I doubt if ever this timber has received its just reward- 

 timber ignorance and faddism preventing it from winning its way and coming to the 

 front." This is an aspect of the subject that I have dealt with in my " Forest Flora of 

 New South Wales."
