NOTICE TO OUR READERS 



As this magazine goes to press announcement is made of 

 a severe fire in the offices of the American Forestry Associa- 

 tion in which many of the valuable records, papers and all 

 back issues of the magazine, etc., have been totally destroyed. 

 It will be necessary to ask that any letters of inquiry or other 

 correspondence addressed to the Association within the last 

 ten days be repeated. Delays in the conduct of the current 

 business of the Association and the issuance of the magazine, 

 AMERICAN FORESTRY, must necessarily follow, and 

 indulgence and leniency is asked of our members.
