The Australian anti fever tree- that fa the blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus- has now spread its fame throughout the world, but there are many who do'not properly estimate its splendid (jua'itics. It has been estimated that the Australian bine gums, which stud the face of the Col.my, contain about five hundred million gallons of pure volatile oil, that is t.be mortal foe of fever and ague.
