No. 4.] 



REPORT OF STATE FORESTER. 



321 



in the employ of Fisher, Bryant & Olmstead of Boston, fores- 

 ters. 



Miss Charlotte Jacobs, who was the State Forester's only 

 assistant and stenographer when he first came to his present 

 position in the State, resigned last spring after seven years' 

 faithful service. Her regularity, thoroughness and enthusiastic 

 interest in the work of the department are missed. 



The office of inspector in the moth work has been discon- 

 tinued, this going into effect on August 1 last. The office of 

 local moth superintendent has so increased in efficiency that it 

 was found unnecessary to incur this extra expense longer. 



The remainder of the organization remains practically intact, 

 the work being shifted more or less to suit our greatest needs.
