THE
timber resources of the world are failing.
Billions of trees are annually felled without others being planted to replace them. Within 25 years a timber famine, together with a corresponding increase in prices, is Inevitable.
New Zealand, Perpetual Forests, Ltd., are pursuing a policy of afforestation which will give their bondholders a unique position in the realm of timber producers within a decade.
By purchasing one £30 bond (by instalments) you become entitled to the rights in one acre of the finest pine land in the world, planted with 680 trees.
The vaine of this bond will be, at a conserva- tive estimate, £250 in approximately twelve years, at which time the wood is suitable for pulping: or, if the timber is allowed to attain maturity, at the end of twenty years, the bond will be worth an estimated value of £500.
