• W2327095890 abstract "The quebracho forests of northern Argentina and southern Paraguay have the distinction of being the only forests of their kind in existence. Here and here only, between the 20th and 3ist parallels, quebracho is found in sufficient quantities to permit commercial exploitation. Quebracho as a botanical species is not entirely confined to this particular region, but in no other portion of the globe has it been found to be so abundant and of so desirable quality. The heartwood of the quebracho yields a valuable extract highly desired in the tanning of high-grade leathers and in such demand in both Europe and the United States for the last thirty or more years that this forest product has become of great economical importance. Foreign and domestic companies, principally the former, have invested large sums of money in forest holdings and in the establishment of tannic acid factories. The industry has assumed such dimensions that it is the leading factor in the development and colonization of northern Argentina. Besides being utilized in the manufacture of tannin, the quebracho tree is converted into many other wood products consumed domestically. Chief among these are railroad ties, boards, beams, poles, piles, fence posts, and cross arms. It is also a desirable wood for certain general construction purposes but is limited in these uses because of its heavy weight and short lengths. It is fine-grained and takes a beautiful polish as well as being the hardest, heaviest, and most durable wood known. In fact in Argentina, especially in the quebracho region, this wood is put to almost every use for which wood can be employed. According to official statistics' the total area of forest land in Argentina is 264,0I2,000 acres, which is 36.I per cent of the land surface. This, however, includes some burned-over forest land and also a good deal of woodland, open and scrublike. The great bulk of the forest is located in the northern part of the country. The quebracho region alone is estimated to cover Ioo,ooo,ooo acres, or I3.7 per cent of the total land surface of the republic; but only 45 to 60 per cent of the region is actually timbered. The term quebracho is of Portuguese derivation, literally meaning break Unfortunately, in parts of South America the term has been indiscriminately used, being applied to any wood having sufficient hardness to turn an ax. In the quebracho region, however, quebracho has a definite meaning, for the reason that it is practically the only wood accepted and" @default.
