AT a meeting held on the 28th of March last year (1883), 

 presided over by the Marquis of Lothian, while the assem- 

 blage was representative of all interests scientific, prac- 

 tical, and professional it was resolved: 'That it is 

 expedient in the interests of forestry, and to promote a 

 movement for the establishment of a National School of 

 Forestry in Scotland, as well as with a view of furthering 

 and stimulating a greater improvement in the scientific 

 management of woods in Scotland and the sister countries 

 which has manifested itself during recent years, that there 

 should be held in Edinburgh, during 1884, and at such 

 season of the year as may be arranged, an International 

 Exhibition of forest products and other objects of interest 

 connected with forestry.'
