BOOK REVIEWS 



I'rcncli Forests and Fori-slry. by Theodore 

 S. Woolsej', Jr. Joliii Wiley & Sons, 

 Inc., New York City. Price, $2.50. 



Tliis work emlxxlies tlie results of a 

 study of the more important phases of 

 forest practice in Corsica, .'Mgeria and 

 Tunisia. The author has not attempted to 

 present a complete investigation of forestry 

 'n all its ramifications, but has rather aimed 

 to set forth the essentials of French 

 inethods which might be applied directly in 

 the United States, or would otherwise prove 

 of value to English speaking loresters. His 

 wide experience and studies abroad in- 

 clude not only Continental Kurope and the 

 French Deiiendencies described in the book, 

 l)Ut also forest management in British India 

 as well. Mr. Woolsey makes, in French 

 Forests and Forestry, a most valuable con- 

 tribution to the forest literature of the day. 



1000 Hints on Flowers and Birds, by Mae 

 Savell Croy. G. P. Putnam's Sons, New 

 York City. Price, $1.50. 



A very serviceable book, written for those 

 who are interested in flower culture and in 

 the establishment of wild life about the 

 home, and so handled that it is of equal 

 value to those who must live in cities and 

 are limited in their efforts to a small back 

 jard or a porch .garden, and those more 

 fortunate ones living in the country or 

 I he suburbs, who may spread themselves in 

 planning and beautifying their gardens and 

 grounds The instructions for flower cul- 

 ture in Mrs. Croy's book are briefly and 

 clearly given, and the information, classified 

 under appropriate headings and exhaustive- 

 ly indexed, will prove invaluable to the 

 flower lover and gardener. 



The Bird Study Book, by T. Gilbert Pear- 

 son. Doubleday, Page & Company, Gar- 

 den (. ity, N. Y. Price, $1.25. 



To those who are interested in bird life 

 and who desire to acquire a .greater fa- 

 miliarity with the habits and activities of 

 wild birds, this little book, charmingly illus- 

 trated, will prove a mine of pleasure and 

 i" formation. It is not intended so much 

 'or the advanced student oi ornithology a5 

 for the beginner, taking up l)ricfly the 

 classification of birds, their form, color, 

 distriiiution, migration, songs and foods, 

 and it answers many questions which natu- 

 rally occur to the stiidfiU of bird lore. 

 To know birds is to love them, and to be 

 introduced to them through the medium 

 of Mr. Pearson's book is to insure that 

 love born of intimate knowledge.
