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.
