PROF. BROWN IN EUROPE 

 pROF. Nelson Cortlandt Brown, of the 

 faculty of the New York State Col- 

 lege of Forestry, at Syracuse, has gone to 

 Furope for special consultation on for- 

 estry problems with the new Czecho-SIo- 

 vak republic, chiefly regarding the dispo- 

 sition or management of the Hapsburg 

 crown lands, which reverted to the new 

 republic when the ancient Austro-Hunga- 

 rian monarchy fell. 



TENNANT LEAVES HOO-HOO 



ANNOUNCEMENT has been made of 

 the resignation of E. D. Tennant as 

 Secretary-Treasurer of the Order of Hoo- 

 Hoo, in order to take up his new duties in 

 connection with his recent appointment as 

 vice-president of the Commercial Journal 

 Company, publishers of Lumber. Mr. Ten- 

 nant is followed as secretary of Hoo-Hoo 

 by H. R. Isherwood, Retail Service Repre- 

 sentative of the National Lumber Manu- 

 facturers' Association, and well and widely 

 known throughout the industry. 



OFFICES OF MARYLAND STATE 

 BOARD OF FORESTRY DESTROY- 

 ED BY FIRE 



The offices of the Maryland State Board 

 of Forestry in McCoy Hall, Johns Hop- 

 kins University, Baltimore, were destroyed 

 by fire on November 27. With the excep- 

 tion of some publications and exhibit 

 material, which was kept in another build- 

 ing, everything was destroyed, including 

 valuable records representing several years 

 of field study and investigation, a report 

 in manuscript form, 700 lantern slides, 

 some 1500 photographic negatives, about 

 3000 photographs, a forest library of some 

 200 volumes, together with a nearly com- 

 plete set of state publications on Forestry, 

 and publications of the Federal Forest Ser- 

 vice. 



One of the most serious losses was that 

 of the files containing the mailing lists 

 and official records, which cover a period 

 of htirteen years of State Forestry work. 

 In some respects it is necessary to begin 

 the work over again, although the publish- 

 ed reports contain a record of fair ac- 

 complishment. 



Since the mailing list will have to be 

 entirely remade, it is important that those 

 who wish to secure future publications of 

 the Maryland State Board of Forestry 

 should make application to be entered on 

 the new mailing list 



ILLINOIS BARS ALL EASTERN 



CHRISTMAS TREES 



"ILLINOIS did not receive any Christmas 



trees from the New England States this 

 year as importation of New England 

 Christmas trees into Illinois was forbidden 

 by proclamation of Governor Lowden. This 

 prohibition was announced as an effort to 

 prevent the ravages of the Gypsy moth 

 among the evergreens of Illinois. The moth 

 infests Christmas trees in Maine, Net 

 Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts 

 Rhode Island and Vermont and is doing 

 much damage. 



Three other proclamations were issue 

 by Governor Lowden, one forbidding im- I 

 portation of chestnut trees from certain 

 states in the east ; another forbidding im- 

 portation of barberry bushes, and the third 

 forbidding importation of pine trees from 

 states in the east. 



THUNDER MOUNTAIN NOW IN 

 NATIONAL FORESTS 

 n ONGRESS has set apart 1,116,000 acre* 

 of land in Idaho known as the Thunder | 

 Mountain region as national forest lands] 

 This great tract, difficult of access and 

 having not over 1 per cent of its area suit-j 

 able for agriculture, has for years been' 

 the scene of destructive fires and devastai 

 tion due to overgazing. It is now to bi! 

 added to the Payette National Forest; 

 which adjoins it on the south and west| 

 and the Idaho National Forest, which ad 

 joins it on the north and west.
