#GERMAN FORESTRY BXPERI-

·MENTS IN CHINA,

During the ten yenis st G-fan occupation of the Kisochow colony one of the most active branches of the Government has been the for estry department. After experiments' with a large variety of trees to determine what would, grow best and quickest here the acacia was chosed as the tree to be used most in the affor estation of the bare hills surrounding Tsingtau, The reasons for this selection were twofold:

A treà war winted to make shade and cover the bills as soon as possible,, regardless of its value, and the pant soil, precluded the use of a variety which would not grow in almost any sort of earth. While these acacias (robina pseudo-acacia) have been grow. » fog, more valuable woods of all sorte, adaptable to the climate, were being constantly pleated."

In the winter of 1906-07 acacias planted in 1952 and 1903 were cut for the first time. All timber up to five centimeters (1.97 inches) dia. meter was sold to the Shantung Mining Com- pany for mining timber. This company bas made extensive experiments with the wood, and now reports that for mining purposes the acacia is as good or better than the pine and cedar varieties now being imported from Japan. The demands of the company nie growing from year to year and are.now 706,180 cubic feet per annum." With the satisfactory results

of these tests the German Government has de cided to go beavily into the 2ccia-raising busi- ness here, as there are large tricts of land. Apparently worthless for anything else. The Acacias also have many other good points. Unlike the pines, they are not subject to disease. or ravages by insects Furthermore, the entire cost of production is covered by the sale of

refuse twigs, etc., to the natives for firewood, while the mining company has agreed to take all timber offered at 5 per 35.314 cubic feel- Comular Reports..
