CONSERVATION INFORMATION 



The efforts of this section were directed towards Informing the general 

 public of the work of the Department, so as to secure their continued 

 support for the main objectives of the Department which Is to protect from 

 depletion and bring about the full development and utilization of the 

 natural resources under Its administration In the best Interests of the 

 people of Ontario. 



Publications 



The majority of our publications were prepared for the public although 

 some publications were prepared for certain Departmental groups. The use of 

 general publications saves considerable time In answering personal letters 

 requesting specific Information, 



Most of the original writing is done by the staff of the Department, 

 mainly by personnel of this section. 



During the year the following publications were published: 



General 



Minister's Annual Report in two parts: (l) Highlights (2) Detailed. 

 SYLVA. Volume 11, No's. 2-6, Volume 12, No. 1. 



6,000 copies of each issue of this magazine are now produced 

 in order to meet increased demand. It is also interesting to 

 note the increased use of articles and photographs from SYLVA 

 by magazines and newspapers internationally. 

 The American Association for Conservation Information awarded its 

 plaque to SYLVA for the most outstanding contribution made during 195^ 

 toward conservation education by any similar magazine on the North American 

 Continent,
