),000 FOR WILD LIFE PROTECTION 

 In making the announcement that the 

 National Association of Audubon Societies 

 had just received a cash contribution of 

 $200,000, T. Gilbert Pearson, president of 

 the Association, stated today that this was 

 ihe largest of numerous donations, which, 

 through the years, have been received from 

 the same source. 



"This friend began by making modest 



gifts to our work," said Mr. Pearson, "and 



his interest has increased as time has gone 



by." 



"It is an interesting and encouraging 



fact," he continued, "that the best sup- 

 porters of the National Audubon work for 

 the protection of wild birds and animals 

 are those who have had opportunity longest 

 to watch its activities. The present gift 

 was made upon condition that the donor's 

 name should remain anonymous. This sum 

 will be added to our permanent Endowment 

 Fund and will enable the Association to 

 enlarge its activities along the lines speci- 

 fied by the giver." 



PENNSYLVANIA'S FORESTS 



The biennial report of the Pennsylvania 

 Department of Forestry shows that during 

 1920 and 1921, 77,544 acres of forest land 

 were purchased by the Commonwealth and 

 placed under the administration of the 

 department. According to the figures com- 

 piled, the State Forest area is now 1,126,236 ' 

 acres, purchased at a total cost of more 

 than $2,546,400, an average of $2.26 per 

 acre. 



During 1920, the area acquired was 

 59,783 acres. Last year there were added 

 to the State Forests 17,760 acres. The 

 combined area purchased during the two 

 years was larger than the total purchases 

 of the seven previous years, 1913 to 1919. 



Last year the department made a special 

 survey of the forest land available for 

 acquisition by the State. Written offers 

 of 488,353 acres were received by the de- 

 partment. In addition, verbal offers were 

 made to the department covering more than 

 250,000 acres, making the total acreage 

 offered for purchase about 750,000 acres. 



A bond issue of $25,000,000 is now recom- 

 mended for the purchase of 5,000,000 acres 

 of waste land in the State, and it already 

 has been approved by the Grange. The 

 department's studies show that if this sum 

 is made available for the purchase of 

 devastated forest land, the entire amount 

 will be repaid principal and interest- 

 within a reasonable time by the growth of 

 the forests. 



SANDALWOOD 



O AN'DALWOOD is the production prin- 

 ^ cipally of the native state of Mysore, 

 India, and the district of Coorg, in both of 

 which places the industry is almost a 

 monopoly of the government forest re- 

 serves. Du to the development of the 

 sandalwood oil extracting industry, states 

 Consul Dawson, of Madras, in Daily Com- 

 merce Reports, the exportation of the wood 

 from Madras has steadily declined while 

 that of the oil has increased. Sandalwood 

 is the most famous of all scented woods. 

 Its use for perfumery and incense dates 

 back thousands of years. The latter Greeks 

 consider it one of their greatest luxuries 

 and no festivities were complete without 

 it. Sandalwood figures prominently in 

 religious ceremonies and burial rites in 

 China and other oriental countries.
