they will stay at Guildford, I have small doubt. 
They have been fed there, and the whole place 
seems well suited to them. So that, should they 
stay in England, we shall easily be able to es¬ 
tablish the fact; for, if it is easy to see the 
birds now in the full of the leaf, it will be much 
easier to see them later when the leaf is off.” 
RAILWAY NURSERIES AND FORESTS. 
In order to reduce the cost of the ties and 
insure a proper supply, the principal railways ot 
Brazil are being compelled to give their atten¬ 
tion to the planting of forests for supplying 
ties, in a manner even more advanced than that 
followed by a number of the great railways of 
the United States which are nearly face to face 
with similar conditions. An outline of the situ¬ 
ation and of the means taken to avoid further 
trouble and to reduce expenses on this score 
appears in the annual report of the Paulista 
Railway Company, which operates the largest 
railway in Southern Brazil, of which the follow¬ 
ing is a synopsis: 
The cost of wood fuel and sleepers on the 
Paulista line, with a track mileage of 691 miles, 
is about $390,000 per annum, the fuel being used 
on the short branch lines. As this is*one of the 
largest items of expense, it was determined to 
experiment with afforestation. A_ nursery of 
250 acres was established at Jundiahy in 190J. 
and planted with 40,000 trees, _ of which 30,000 
are eucalyptus and the rest various other kinds, 
both indigenous and imported. Two other 
tracts, of 65 acres each, were also planted with 
eucalyptus, the total number being 20,000. The 
company now has 60,000 trees of various kinds, 
and the expenditures in five years, including 
the purchase price of the ground, have been 
$45»°95- The eucalyptus was found to be the 
best adapted for the material, not only because 
of its weight, compactness, and holding power, 
but also by reason of its extraordinary vigor 
and rapid growth. Some trees in the nursery, 
planted five years ago in poor soil, are now 
58 feet tall, with diameters of 15^2 inches each 
at the base. 
The company has determined to carry out its 
scheme on a large scale, and has acquired 3.750 
more acres of fine -land near the city of Rio 
Claro. On this and other available lands it is 
planned to plant 1,000,000 eucalyptus trees. As 
present improvements on the land last pur¬ 
chased will produce sufficient revenue to pay 
back the capital expended in buying it, it is 
estimated that the total cost of this experiment 
in forestry, which will be completed in 15 years, 
will be $150,000, or 15 cents per tree, while 
the returns on each tree when cut up will be 20 
times its original cost. It is also estimated that 
the 1,000,000 trefes will prove an ample and con¬ 
tinuous resource for fuel and sleepers for all 
the company’s lines, thereby saving the com¬ 
pany approximately $300,000 a year. 
The growing of trees for railroad work in 
Brazil is to be taken up generally by railways 
serving the dry zones and those portions of the 
country where the cost of getting out native 
forest trees is excessive.
