'The T rees Grow So Quickly ...'
• AUCKLAND, Tue. (P.A.).—“l’ve been told that when, you plant a tree in New Zealand you have to get out of the way in a hurry,” exclaimed; the chief forester for Associated Pulp and Paper Mills, Tasmania (Mr R. H. Needham) when he arrived by air toaay.
He will study methods of cultivating pmus radiata and beech.
Mr Needham predicts a great future for Australia and New Zealand in the pulp wood industry. American and Swedish wood was much dearer than that produced here and in Australia.
He recently visited America to study logging operations and found that timber which previously was wasted was now being used to make pulp, but such utilisation there was not comparable with that done in New Zealand.
