attempt was to be made to establish’ plantations of trees in the 
Islands, Mr. B. C. Aston, Secretary of the New Zealand Insti-

tunity to undertake an experiment with New Zealand Flax

from Kew, Mr. J. A. A. Wallace, of Lochryan, Stranraer, very 
kindly sent twelve seedling plants four years old, and twelve 
seedling plants two years old, and a packet of seed, which have 
n sent out with the trees and cuttings in charge of the Forest
