Merle,

Right.  The medicinal compounds are terpines.  There are some 30 such compounds 
in the Chinese Cedar active against murine leukemia.

Big authority, here: I just read this today, thanks to YOU!

PS  Merle, do you grow the Ti-tree? (I see you have Eucalyptus on the property. 
 We had them in Chile, imported from Australia, and they are all over 
California and Arizona).  The scent of the Ti-tree oil is to me like a blend of 
Citronella Oil and Turpentine scents.  Interesting; but burns my eyes a little 
when worn on the skin to remove benign skin growths sometimes called 
"skin-tags".  They say it's good for removing moles, too, but haven't tried 
that.
