NEW SOUTH WALES. 
The Darling River is a vague locality, but reference to Stvirfs map accompanying 
his " Narrative of an Expedition into Central Australia" shows that he was only on 
the Darling from a little above Wentworth, leaving it to go north by north-west in the 
vicinity of Menindie.

' Turpentine Bush. Said to differ from the Budda on account of its mode of 
growth, colour of flowers, and non-palatability of it to stock. It a'ppears much more 
bushy from its base and more twiggy in its branches. It has a smaller leaf, and is 
certainly distinct in its pale purplish flowers. It generally grows in dry places, usually 
in small clumps by itself, away from the common Budda, E. MitcJielli. It is 'easily 
recognised by its bushy habit, colour of flowers, and occurrence in dry situations."

' Turpentine Bush." Is full of turpentine. A low bush up to 8 or 10 feet high, 
with many stems branching or springing from one root. Useless as a fodder plant, 
but sheep eat the flowers when they fall. Has pretty pink and white flowers. Found- 
only on red soil. (A. W. Mullen, Bourke.)

PHOTOGRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION. 
Turpentine Bush, Bourke District. " The Turpentine bush is 1 J inches from the right-hand edge of the 
picture and 2 inches from the top edge. It is a little round bush of dense foliage and many stems 
from one root, and rarely grows higher than 8 feet. It and the ' Budda ' are almost identical in 
leaf and flower, but different in appearance, as the Budda generally has only one stem. The Budda 
and Turpentine only grow on red sandy or loamy soil out of reach of flood, and are not edible for 
stock." (A. W. Mullen, L.S., photo.)
