PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATURAL HISTORY 

 ASSOCIATION OF MIRAMICHI. 



The formation of a Natural History Society at Miramichi 

 is another evidence of the fresh interest that is being taken in 

 the Maritime Provinces in all branches of Natural History. 

 The papers of greatest interest to Ottawa Naturalists in the 

 first number of the Proceedings of the Association are : " The 

 Anowra of New Brunswick," by Philip Cox Ph. D , "Our Winter 

 Birds," by J. McGregor Baxter, M. D., and " The Moths ot 

 Miramichi," by J. D. B. F. MacKenzie.
