 feet 8 inches circumference, and there are two limbs 3 feet by 

 7 feet 8 inches, and 4 feet by 6 feet 2 inches respectively. The 

 tree has a large spreading top, and appears to be fairly healthy. 

 Is not this a record size ? 



In Yarm-on-Tees, in the North Riding of Yorkshire, there 

 may be seen a good specimen of the Californian Redwood 

 {Sequoia sempervirens), trained as a wall-tree over the gable end 

 of a building, and completely covering the whole wall from top 

 to bottom. The total height is about 40 feet, and the tree is in 

 a very healthy condition, and certainly has a splendid appear- 

 ance. Do any of your readers know of a similar case ?

Erratum. 



Mr Fisher informs us that a somewhat important error occurs 

 in his article on the Forest of Retz, in Vol. XVIII, (1905) of 

 our Transactions, an error which he has only noticed recently. 

 On p. 99, under the heading Revenue, the first sentence should 

 read, "The average annual yield of the whole forest from 1898 

 to 1900 was 2,684,430 cubic feet (solid), realising ^^24,613," 

 in place of " 684,430 cubic feet " as in the text.
