 1920. — At its annual meeting in August, 1920, the forestry society of Franche-Comt6 and Bel- 

 fort adopted a resolution asking the government to remove the prohibition on exports of 

 firewood and charcoal because in eastern France available supplies were considerably in ex- 

 cess of local needs. The assistant secretary of agriculture replied that while it was impossi- 

 ble to alter present restrictions immediately because of the great need in France for fuel of 

 all sorts, he would attempt to find a market for firewood and charcoal from this region, and 

 that where production remained in excess of consumption he was inclined to look favorably 

 upon permitting such exports as might appear justified. — S. T. Dana.

 tendant a I'augmentation de la production du bois d'oeuvre. [Increasing the production of 

 timber.] Bull. Trimest. Soc. Forest. Franche-Comte et Belfort 13: 283-288. 1920.— The 

 general councils of the departments of the Haute Saone and the Jura have expressed their 

 desire to support the efi"orts of the forest service; to secure the submission to the forest regime 

 and the reforestation of waste areas belonging to the communes; to increase the proportion 

 of conifers in the mountains; and to convert the stands of broadleaf coppice in the plains into 

 high forest by increasing the number of young reserves. The conservators of waters and 

 forests in these 2 departments have expressed their approval of this program to increase the 

 production of timber, and have issued instructions accordingly to the forest force.— 5. T.
