THE CANADIAN FORESTRY ASSOCIATION. 



Extends a cordial invitation to tho^e inter- 

 ested in the forests of this country, from 

 whatever point of view, to join its ranks, 

 and help to s^pread knowledge of, and in- 

 terest in, the forests of Canada in partic- 

 ular, and in general of the world. During 

 the past few years the interest in the 

 proper use and the protection and perpetua- 

 tion of the forests has greatly increased, 

 and to this increased knowledge and interest 

 the (Canadian Forestry Association, by its 

 propaganda work, has contributed its share. 

 Founded in 1900, with a membership of 12, 

 it has in twelve years increased its mem- 

 bership to 2,700. During these years it has 

 held conventions throughout Canada from 

 <-oast to coast, in the Ancient Capital and 

 in the bustling cities of the prairies and 

 Pacific coast, in the manufacturing east and 

 the agricultural prairie country. Its official 

 organ, Tlic Canadian Forestry Journal, was 

 started in 1905 and is now in its seventh 

 volume. But as forestry goes on, circum- 

 stances change and neAv needs spring up, 

 and the Association is anxious to do its 

 duty in arousing public interest and point- 

 ing out ways of getting things done. One 

 object of the Association was achieved when 

 forest reserves were established; but that 

 is merely a beginning and now proper ad- 

 ministration of these reserves, on the basis 

 of the public good, irrespective of any pri- 

 A'ate or partizan interest, must be secured. 

 When that is done other problems will pre- 

 sent themselves for settlement. The Asso- 

 <?iation wants the interest and enthusiasm 

 and, in some degree, the contributions of 

 the public. The annual membership fee is 

 $1.00; this entitles the member to The Cana- 

 dian Foresiry Journal for a year, the an- 

 nual report of the society, and other litera- 

 ture. Life membership costs $10.00. Ap- 

 plications for membership should be ad- 

 dressed to James Lawler, Secretary, Cana- 

 dian Forestry Assn., Canadian Building.

I'nited States Postmaster-General Hitch- 

 cock has strengthened the forest fire-pre- 

 ventive force of the United States by almost 

 55,000 men. These men are the rural and 

 star route carriers of the postal service, 

 Avho are directed to co-operate with the 

 forest rangers and State fire wardens when- 

 ever and wherever i^ossible. Forest fires 

 last year destroyed approximately $50,- 

 000,000 worth of property. The Department 

 of Agriculture has been anxious to increase 

 in every Avay the efficiency of its preventive 

 service. Postmaster-General Hitchcock has 

 found the way to offer assistance, and as 

 soon as his ])]aii A^as found feasible the 

 order referred to was issued. 



The county of Hastings will purchase 

 some hundreds of acres of land in Elzevir 

 township for the pur})ose of reforestation. 

 This county is the firf^t to undertake this 

 work.
