AMERICAN FORESTRY 



Bouquets for the New Magazine 



The change in style and size of Ameri- 

 can Forestry has been welcomed by words 

 of hearty commendation by members of 

 the American Forestry Association. They 

 have expressed their admiration of the 

 colored cover, the better illustrations and 

 the whole very marked improvement in 

 words which leave us no doubt as to the 

 wisdom of making the change. 



Some of the comments follow : 



"Let me heartily congratulate you on 

 the continued and steady advance of our 

 magazine in beauty and interest." 



Dr. H. S. Drinker, 

 President of Lehigh University, 

 South Bethlehem, Pa. 



"I have just received and looked over 

 the August issue of American Forestry, 

 and I am really surprised at and very 

 favorably impressed by the change. I 

 think it will attract much attention and 

 increase the prestige of the magazine and 

 of the Association. I am gratified to see 

 tlie large amount of advertising and hope 

 it will be sustained." 



Chester W. Lyman, 

 International Paper Company, 

 New York City. 



"I congratulate you upon the new form 

 of the magazine. The interesting part is 

 to look back about three years and trace 

 the evolution and improvement. You have 

 unquestionably done wonders in creating an 

 attractive magazine, and I am convinced 

 that if more people saw it and more readers 

 knew about it they would take it for its 

 own sake alone, regardless of any senti- 

 ment, propaganda or charitable feeling to- 

 wards the Association." 



E. A. Sterling, 

 Manager, Trade Extension Dept., Na- 

 tional Lumber Manufacturers' Associa- 

 tion, Chicago, III. 



"Congratulations on the good taste of 

 the new clothes worn by American For- 

 estry. 'Clothes bespeak the man,' and the 

 quality, character, as well as the appear- 

 ance of the magazine have never before 

 spoken so well as now. I now feel that 

 constructive American forestry is ably rep- 

 resented and well dressed." 



Charles Lathrop Pack, 

 Lakewood, N. J. 



"I wish to compliment you on the August 

 number of America.v Forestry the maga- 

 zine is surely greatly improved." 



Prop. R. B. Miller, 

 Dept. of Forestry, University of New 

 Brunswick, Fredericton, N. B. , 



"1 congratulate you on the favorable im- 

 pression which the magazine in its new 

 form has made. I continue to think that 

 the preservation of forests is one of the 

 chief features of wise national conserva- 

 tion." Dr. Charles W. Eliot, 

 Cambridge, Mass. 



"Congratulations on the new form and 

 increased size of your valuable publication. 

 May it be a means of carrying on more 

 and more effectively the good work you 

 are doing." George H. Rhodes, 



Secretary, California Forest Protective 

 Assn., San Francisco, California. 



"While I have this opportunity, allpw 

 mc to congratulate you on the attractive 

 appearance of the August number. It 

 seems to me that this new size should allow 

 of even better illustrating than ever before, 

 and should contribuie to tlie popularity of 

 the magazine." J. Gordon Dorrance, 

 Baliimure,Md. 



"It is with pleasure that I comphment 

 you upon the new size of the magazine, 

 which permits of greater picture space di- 

 rectly by the reading matter, thus Holding 

 the reader's attention more closely. The 

 article on i'ellow Poplar is splenAd." 

 H. J. Kaestner, 

 State Forester, BelingtOin, W. Va. 



"1 liked the appearance of the last issue 

 of American Forestry very much. The 

 new shape strikes me much more favorably 

 than I had anticipated." S. T. Dana, 

 Washington, D. C.

"I think the August number of Ameri- 

 can Forestry is a remarkable improve- 

 ment, even upon the greatly improved 

 issues that have gone before. The colored 

 cover makes a striking impression and I 

 predict for the Association a rapid increase 

 in membership as a result." 



M. B. BURBAGE, 



Germantown, Pa. 



".\llow me to congratulate you on the 

 large size and attractive appearance of 

 your August edition. As we are all more 

 or less picture lovers, that feature brought 

 more intimately to one's notice I think will 

 be a continued advantage." 



W. R. Brown, 

 Berlin, N. H. 



"Allow me to present my sincere compli- 

 ments upon the August issue of American 

 Forestry, upon its very artistic appear- 

 ance and its very solid, fine substance a 

 combination rarely met." 



Margaret L. Streeter, 

 Washington, D. C. 



"American Forestry, the magazine of 

 the American Forestry Association, comes 

 out in a brand new dress. The design of 

 the front cover is attractive, being a photo- 

 graph in colors of the tulip or yellow pop- 

 lar tree, whose characteristics and commer- 

 cial uses receive special attention in this 

 number." Lumber World Review, 



Chicago, Illinois. 



"American Forestry has made its ap- 

 pearance in a new, enlarged form, begin- 

 ning with the issue for August. The cover 

 is in colors and is ornamented with a pho- 

 tograph of a magnificent tulip tree, other- 

 wise known as the yellow poplar, with 

 beautiful reproductions of the flowers as 

 panels, the latter being evidently engraved 

 from an artist's sketch. The magazine has 

 been increased in dimensions, the page now 

 measuring 9x12 inches, as compared with 

 the former size of 6^^x10 inches. Ameri- 

 can Forestry is the organ of the American 

 Forestry Association and is a most credit- 

 able publication." "Paper," 

 New York City. 



"My congratulations on the enlarged 

 magazine. I dare to beheve that it will 

 fill the place long hoped for it in this new 

 form." Philip W. Ayres, 



Forester, Society for the Protection of 

 N. H. Forests, Boston, Mass. 



"The appearance of the August issue of 

 American I-orestry certainly entitles yon 

 to the congratulation of your friends and 

 ot its friends. When it reached me I 

 opened it in surprise, it was almost stun- 

 ning. Keep on this way, everlastingly, and 

 especially along that educational trail at 

 which you hint, for nothing more helpful 

 or hopeful for forestry can be thought of." 

 Dr. J. T. Rothrock, 

 West Chester, Pa. 



"Please permit me to remark that the 

 magazine i^ mucii more attractive and that 

 in my humble opinion its new form should 

 do a great deal toward increasing its popu- 

 larity, more especially among people who 

 are not directly or intimately concerned 

 with the science of forestry." 



T. H. Simpson, 

 Washington, D. C. 



"The American Forestry for August, in 

 my opinion, is the most beautiful magazine 

 that has yet graced a newsstand, while the 

 leading article about Yellow Poplar, is ex- 

 ceptionally complete, interesting and val- 

 uable, ranging as it does from botanical 

 characteristics to the details of timber 

 utilization. A magazine of this character, 

 if it can be given general distribution, will 

 unquestionably be of great value to the 

 lumber industry, and of much interest to 

 the general public." 



R. S. Kellogg, 



Secretary, National Lumber Manufac- 

 turers' Assn., Chicago, Illinois. 



"Your August issue of American For- 

 estry just received. We think that you 

 have made a wise move in enlarging the 

 size of your publication and want to con- 

 gratulate you on its general appearance." 

 C. D. .'Vnderson, 



Chicago, III. 



"I like the August issue in every way 

 and think it is bound to fill a much larger 

 field of usefulness. The new form gives 

 it better opportunities for display and 

 makes the pictures an extremely attractive 

 feature. It ought to result in much more 

 interest in, and success for, the organiza- 

 tion. . . . All in all, I think it is a 

 corker and you are to be congratulated." 

 Bristow .\dams, 

 Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y. 



"The appearance of the .\ugust number 

 of American Forestry is certainly very at- 

 tractive and shows a marked improvement." 

 Austin F. Hawes. 

 State Forester, Burlington, Vt. 



"1 congratulate you on the fine appear- 

 ance of the August number. It surely is a 

 beauty, and I think that vou are doinit 

 marvelous work in spreading real interest 

 in trees, and we are all the more pleased 

 with this because we recoenize that this 

 work is an important part of nature study." 

 Edward F. Bicelow, 



Editor. The Guide to Nature. Sound 

 Beach, Connecticut. 



"The new magazine is much more at- 

 tractive, and I believe is a great improve- 

 ment over the old one in every way. It 

 ought to impress people and to aid in se- 

 curing new members. I congratulate you 

 on it." Prof. H. H. Chapman, 



Yale Forest School, New Haven, Con- 

 necticut.
