Excerpt from Tree Planting in Natal
Natal is not, never has been, and never can be, an over-sea timber exporting country. The indigenous forests are unable to meet the domestic requirements of the Colony; they have constantly decreased rather than increased, and as they are in great measure in private ownership this is likely to continue.
Even the enormous imports of foreign timber which have arrived during recent years have done little towards saving what remains of the forests; the Colony and its hinterland have developed with corresponding rapidity, fresh demands have arisen, and the only salvation for the indigenous timber is the fact that it is not standing in the forest already planed and grooved as the imported material arrives.
