Forestry and Taxation 227 



purpose of this book to furnish a history of the 

 movement for forestry reform in this country, our 

 survey of the subject would be incomplete if we 

 did not devote a chapter to the various phases 

 through which the movement has passed. At the 

 same time we ought to consider some of the work 

 which is done by various governmental and educa- 

 tional institutions, and the matter of agitation and 

 instruction. Finally we must show how within quite 

 recent years the movement has begun to have some 

 results, both in legislation and actual silviculture.
