It is with the deepest regret that we announce the resignation 

 of Mr. Daniel Logan as Editor of the "Forester," which was 

 submitted on July 9, and which perforce had to be accepted

 faithful services in connection with the Board's publication have 

 been greatly appreciated and he will be missed by all of his 

 Honolulu friends.

 activities of the four divisions during the fiscal year ended June 

 30, 1920. 



The new bovine tuberculosis regulations approved by the 

 Governor on July 6, 1920, appear in this issue. 



Plans are being made to relocate and enlarge the tree nursery 

 at Hilo, so as to make a larger number of trees available for

The crop of koa seeds in the forests back of Honolulu appears 

 to be better than usual this year and an effort is being made to 

 secure a large supply for reforestation work by the Division of 

 Forestry.

 tinues at the insectary of the Entomologist, and these are sent
