C. F. A. REPORT IN FRENCH. 



iULTY ef FS.^ESIRlf 



After many delays the report in 

 French of the work of the Canadian 

 Forestry Association covering tlie Ot- 

 tawa, Victoria and Winnipeg Conven- 

 tions has been printed and maih^d to 

 a long list of members and others. 

 It has been sent to the bishops and 

 cures of Quebec, to heads of educa- 

 tional institutions, and to the secre- 

 taries of school districts. The latter 

 are in most ca.ses municipal secre- 

 taries also. The effort lias been to 

 take the best things, tiie things most 

 useful to the Province of Quebec es- 

 pecially, out of these three conven- 

 tions and place them in one volume. 

 The result is a l)Ook of one hundred 

 pages, which it is believed will be very 

 useful. 



Those of our members ulio desire 

 a copy and have not yet received one 

 will be supplied without charge by 

 applying to the Secretary. Canadian 

 Forestry A.ssociation. Ottawa. Copies 

 will also be available for general dis- 

 tribution so long as the supply lasts.
