Anacahuite Wood

Anacahuite Wood.—In the year 1860 considerable quantities of this wood were imported from Mexico, into Germany, as a supposed remedy in phthisis, but it failed to sustain its first reputation. It is the product of Cordia Boissieri DC. (See P. J., Dec., 1862, 272, with figure.)

The Dispensatory of the United States of America, 1918, was edited by Joseph P. Remington, Horatio C. Wood and others.
