Comment 791 



Chow-Tsz-chi resigned about the time we made reference to him, 

 and has been succeeded by various ministers who have shown less 

 ardor in advancing the forestry movement; indeed, attempts to 

 discontinue the small beginnings of a forest service were made by 

 more than one of them, and this may have been accompHshed by 

 this time. Meanwhile, we bring in translation the very wording 

 of the Chinese forestry laws, kindly prepared for us by Mr. 

 Sherfesee.
