SOFT WOODS FAMINE
HOW TO MEET IT AN EXPERT’S WARNING SYDNEY, Dee. 24. Sir Herbert Matthews. secretary of the Central Council of Agriculture in London has arrived on route to NewZealand. He issued a warning that a famine in soft woods was imminent. Sir H. Matthews said that although Australia and New Zealand used large quantities of soft woods little was being done to replenish the forest. This unhappily was the position throughout the world, but New Zealand was fortunately taking reafforestation seriously. New Zealand methods, however, could not be adopted in England because early maturing soft woods oould not be grown in Great Britain.
