TO OWNERS OF WOODS. 



The Author of " The New Forestry " begs to state that he 

 has, as far as practicable, anticipated the wants of his readers in 

 his book, but in consequence of the enquiries he constantly 

 receives from owners of woods, he wishes to state that he advises 

 on all subjects connected with woods and game preserves. 



He inspects woods separately, takes stock of their contents, 

 condition, and value; reports fully, sets out timber for sale, 

 arranges planting operations, makes out lists and estimates, directs 

 labour, and when engaged by the year over-looks the whole work 

 of the woods. Terms moderate, according to distance. 



He has for a considerable time been engaged in re-organising 

 the woods on a number of estates throughout Great Britain, his 

 acquaintance with woods and game preservation in nearly every 

 county, and knowledge of Continental and British forestry, 

 enabling him to advise under a great variety of conditions, so as 

 to avoid the mistakes of the past and secure better crops of 

 timber in the future. 



When personal inspection is not desired, he advises by 

 letter if particulars regarding soil climate and situation are 

 furnished.
