N.Z. SOFTWOODS
SUITABILITY FOR PULPING Press Association. WELLINGTON, To-day. With regard to the attack by the Victorian Minister of Forests, the Hon. r. F. Richardson, on New Zealand forestry companies, and his assertion that nowhere was softwood used for
pulping, the Press Association has been requested to publish an' extract from the report of the Minister’s ora department, completely controverting his statement. The report says:“A timber which is being successfully used for building, furniture, railway purposes and box-making and has been proved suitable for pulping, for making both paper 1 and artificial silk, can hardly’ be described as useless, and evidence here set out justifies the conclusion that pinus insignis, grown in Australia and New Zealand, compares favourably in usefulness with other softwood timbers well known on the markets of the world.”
