the forests from fire by providing a fire 

 patrol of efficient men, well organized and 

 well equipped; and, second, the inspec- 

 tion of the public lands and the separation 

 of the agricultural from the non-agricul- 

 tural lands, the latter being included in re- 

 servations and kept permanently for the 

 production of timber. These two objects 

 the Association has kept before the public 

 by all the means of education which are 

 available. It has also made representa- 

 tions to the Government for the improve- 

 ment of fire legislation, which has done 

 considerable towards perfecting the statu- 

 tory authority for the protection of the 

 forests. Xo matter how efficient the leg- 

 islation is, however, it needs to be backed 

 up by a strong public opinion, and the 

 Association, which is not a Government 

 institution, but a voluntary institution to 

 whose membership all the members of the 

 Pulp and Paper Association will be wel- 

 come, is doing a great deal to educate 

 the public and form such a necessary back- 

 ground of public support.' 



Paper journals continue to announce ex- 

 periments to find materials for paper- 

 making to take the place of wood. Straw, 

 bamboo, sugar cane waste, cornstalks are 

 all considered, but in every case they 

 are less economical than wood. These 

 things point to the importance of preserv- 

 ing our forests which are daily growing 

 more valuable.
