esteemed for the construction of wharves, jetties 
and bridges. It grows to large dimensions. Trees 
are to be found in South Victoria containing 20 000 
feet super of timber. It furnishes also good railway 
sleepers and street paying blocks. This Eucalyptus 
grows naturally near the coast and is never found 
far inland." Pkt. 15c, oz. $1.50.

way ties, poles, piles, etc. Pkt. 15c, oz. $1.00. 
E. DIVERSICOLOR. "Karri Gum." One of the most 
magnificent of all trees, specimens having been re- 
corded in Australia nearly 400 feet high. It grows 
quickly and forms a straight trunk. Succeeds best 
in fairly moist situations near the coast and will 
thrive on alkali land. It is also one of the most 
handsome for avenue planting. The wood is very 
strong and used for masts of ships, wagon build- 
ing, etc. Pkt. 15c, oz. $2.00.

old have attained the height of 150 feet and a diam- 
eter of 3 to 6 feet. It is usually of erect growth 
succeeds best near the coast and on account of its 
rapid growth is probably the most profitable tree 
to plant. The wood is durable above ground; large 
quantities of it have been sawed at San .lose, Cal., 
for felloes, poles, reaches and singletrees of wagons 
flooring, insular pins and anything requiring 
strength. It takes a fine polish and is valuable for 
furniture and interior finishing. Pkt. 15c, oz. 50c,

also ascends the mountains to an elevation of 5000 
feet, but here becomes a dwarf tree or mere shrub. 
It is extremely hardy, growing where there is snow 
for several months in the year. Should prove one
