III.— REFORESTATION. 



During the past year the work of • reforestation has been marked chiefly 

 by the preparation for production of planting material. Two new forestry 

 stations have been established, one in Durham County near the village of 

 Orono; the other at Midhurst, five miles from Barrie. A description of these 

 two stations together with reports on work already being carried on, is here 

 appended.
