Camphor Cultivation in Burma "

Abstract

"Cinnamomum Camphora", the source of natural camphor is an evergreen tree belonging to the family of Laurels. In its native habitat it grows up to be a very handsome tree attaining a height of 100 feet, with large and spreading bran- ches and a trunk of 2 to 3 feet in diameter. The tree is indi- genous to the Eastern coast of China and the islands of the Japanese Archipelago. It is particularly abundant in Formosa, which produces nearly one-half of the world's supply of camphor.
