Some Words of Praise 



"The new magazine is fine. I find it a 

 great help in Botany and other science 

 teaching in the high school. We are get- 

 ting acquainted with the important tim- 

 ber trees of the United States. 



A. E. Warner, 

 Allegan, Michigan. 



"No forest officer should be without your 

 magazine. I like it very much indeed.''

 tractive — the illustrations are wonderful." 

 Miss Cora H. Clarke,

"I want to take this occasion to con- 

 gratulate you on the improvement in the 

 organ of our association, and also upon the 

 very interesting and readable material 

 which it has contained." 



R. P. Bass, 

 Ex-Governor of New Hampshire, 

 Peterborough, New Hampshire. 



"American Forestry Magazine is ex- 

 cellent and deserves success and wide dis- 

 tribution."

 Boston, Mass. 



"We like American Forestry. It is 

 educational in the line of forestry. Your 

 effort in conserving the forests for the 

 use of present and future generations is 

 a noble one, and should have the help and 

 support of every one interested in the wel- 

 fare and prosperity of mankind." 



Richard Bennett,

"I want to compliment you on your 

 very beautiful issue of American Fores- 

 try. It is certainly very pleasing in every 

 particular." E. W. Meeker, 



Mgr. Editor Hardwood Record, 

 Chicago, III. 



"1 wish to congratulate you and every- 

 one else who may have had a hand in the 

 recent change in the get-up of the magazine. 

 It is excellent. At the last meeting of the 

 Botanical Society of Western Pennsyl- 

 vania a couple of our members took up 

 the larger part of the time in reviewing 

 and commenting upon the August and Sep- 

 tember numbers — and it would not at all 

 surprise me if you get a few subscriptions 

 as a result of the favorable comments." 

 Dr. O. E. Jennings, 

 Editor, The Bryologist, 

 Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh, Pa. 



"I have very great pleasure indeed in 

 reading your journal, both the literature 

 and illustrations of which are most excel- 

 lent." J. A. DUTHIE, 

 Aberdeen, Scotland. 



"American Forestry is a thorough treat 

 to me every month and something which 

 I look forward to for weeks before it is 

 due." Allan L. Hansben, 



Upper Montclair, N. J. 



"1 want to congratulate you on the publi- 

 cation you have been putting out for the 

 past season. It is a live one and up to 

 date in every way. I trust it will accom- 

 plish the good that you are striving to 

 accomplish with it." 



W. S. Taylor. 

 Austin, Te.vas. 



"American Forestry arrived this morn- 

 ing, and I wish to congratulate you most 

 heartily on its splendid appearance. The 

 cover is very attractive and excellently 

 printed, and the stock used throughout the 

 whole job is certainly of the finest. The 

 cuts are well etched and show up details 

 magnificently, and altogether I think you 

 certainly ought to be highly congratulated 

 on the typography and general appearance 

 of the issue." A. C. Jennings, 



Toronto, Canada. 



"1 want to congratulate you upon the 

 appearance of .'\merican Forestry in the 

 new size. The illustrations are beautiful 

 and the general character of the magazine 

 is so high class in every respect that I 

 feel you have good cause to be proud of it." 

 Robert E. Miller, 

 Lancaster, Pa. 



"I had'occasion to visit some friends of 

 mine in Rochester a few days ago and 

 found the American Forestry lying on the 

 center table. I commented upon its pres- 

 ence and found both of the men of the 

 household extremely enthusiastic about it. 

 The father, a man of 83, told me in its 

 new form it was one of the most interest- 

 ing and up-to-date magazines he knew of. 

 I am frank to admit I have also become 

 converted and like your new form, com- 

 menting especially upon the columns or 

 page for children," F. F. Moon, 



Syracuse, N. Y. 



"The magazine published by the Asso- 

 ciation is a beauty, is very interesting, and 

 I have passed it around to my friends in 

 all parts of the State, urging attention and 

 interest in the work. I congratulate you 

 on your success and hope that the plans 

 of the helpful, efficient men that are inter- 

 ested in the Association will work to the 

 advantage of the organization and of the 

 whole country." 



Edward V. Preston, 

 Travelers Insurance Company, 



Hartford, Connecticut. 



"1 consider every issue of American 

 Forestry a treat." 



H. L. Churchill, 

 Forester, Glenn Falls. N. Y. 



"While I may be somewhat late in ex- 

 pressing my thorough appreciation of the 

 new magazine, nevertheless, I trust it is 

 not too late now, and not only are the ar- 

 ticles in it of interest, but especially did 

 the children's department catch my eye." 

 R. S. Maddox, 

 Forester, Nashville, Tenn. 



"I am a member of the Association, and 

 I cannot refrain from expressing my ad- 

 miration for American Forestry in its 

 new form." E. W. Bright,

"In looking over the recent numbers of 

 American Forestry I am much impressed 

 with the remarkable change and improve- 

 ment both in tlie make-up and matter of 

 this publication." 



Frederick W. Kelsey, 

 150 Broadway, New York City. 



A Beautiful Calendar. 



James D. Lacey & Company sent out 

 early this year a calendar on the prepara- 

 tion of which they expended the best of 

 taste and not a little money. It consists 

 of a large original photograph about ten 

 by nineteen inches, of a beautiful group 

 of Sitka Spruce trees. This is handsomely 

 mounted and tied with a satin ribbon, 

 and bears a calendar pad of practical 

 size at the bottom. This calendar has 

 had a rather wide distribution and its 

 beauty has brought forth many an ex- 

 pression of praise for it, the firm receiv- 

 ing compliments upon the beauty of the 

 production from practically every one who 

 became a fortunate possessor of one of 

 the calendars. 



Wyman's School of the Woods 



The forestry students of Wyman's School 

 of the Woods, Munising, Michigan, 

 have completed the winter term as con- 

 ducted in Munising, and are now com- 

 forltably located in their summer home on 

 Perch Lake, about four miles from the city. 

 The field work during the summer term 

 will include surveying, topographic map- 

 ping and estimating, besides dendrology, 

 ornithology, forest botany and woodcraft. 

 The great activities in woods operations in 

 the immediaite vicinity will give the men 

 the best of opportunity to study logging 

 and forestry work as it is actually carried 

 on by the lumber companies in the Upper 

 Peninsula of Michigan. Some of the stu- 

 dents have built their own log cabins and 

 will do their own cooking, while the others, 

 living in tents, will eat at the regular camp 

 table. The work will be carried under the 

 direction of Thomas B. Wyman and R. R. 

 Fenska.
