FORF.STRY SECTION IN SCOTTISH NATIONAL EXHIBITION. 21 7 



32. Forestry Section in the Scottish National Exhibi- 

 tion, Edinburgh, 1908, organised by the Royal 

 Scottish Arboricultural Society, ist May to 31st 

 October. 



As soon as it was definitely known that a Scottish National 

 Exhibition was to be held in Saughton Park, Edinburgh, the 

 Council of the Society arranged that an Exhibit of Forestry 

 should be included in it. A suitable space in the North Garden, 

 facing the main avenue, was allotted free of charge to the 

 Society, on part of which a Pavilion, hired for the occasion 

 from Mr John M'Manus, London, was erected to receive such 

 of the Exhibits as required to be kept under lock and key ; on 

 another part a shed has been put up to protect the timber 

 boards from the weather, and the remainder of the space is 

 occupied by Exhibits which do not require special protection. 



It is intended that a detailed report of the Society's Exhibit 

 be published in a future issue. Meanwhile we give a list of 

 the names of those who have been good enough to respond 

 to the Society's invitation to enter Exhibits under the headings 

 given below, viz. : —
