AUSTRIA-HUNGARY. 



Germany's neighbor to the south-east, and until 

 1866 a member of the German Empire or Federation, 

 largely settled by Germans and hence swayed by 

 German thought, developed forestry methods on 

 much the same lines as the mother country. Yet there 

 are differences to be found, due to difference in eco- 

 nomic development, and there is for the United States 

 perhaps more to be learned from Austria in the matter 

 of introducing forestry methods, especially as lately 

 practiced in Bosnia-Herzegovina, than from any 

 other country, for economic conditions are in several 

 respects alike.
