Is it to be British oak ? Mr. Harrison. Clearly, sir. I thought the honorable member alluded to difference of counties, because there is an actual or supposed difference in the value of timber grown in the north and south of England it is clearly British ; the contract is for the supply of all the British oak required for the use of the navy ; arid I take that fact as conclusive, that, in the minds of those who are best informed upon the subject, there is no difficulty in the private yards on t...he subject; and in consequence of the economy prac- tised in the use of timber, there is less danger now than there ever has been of a failure of oak timber. Mr. . Did you say it was at a less price ? Mr. Harrison. At a less price than the price within the last year or two. I do not. Know how much less. Mr. - You mean to prove this ? Mr. Harrison. We shall apply for the copy of the contract, sir. Of late years a very great saving has arisen in the use of oak, more than at any other period ; some of the great works which used to come in competition with the navy for timber, are now otherwise supplied.
