Eleventh Annual Report 



This year a preliminary study of the woodworking industries 

 of the State was undertaken. Accordingly, in July a circular let- 

 ter with a statistical blank and stamped reply envelope, to the 

 number of 702, was sent to each of the woodworking industries of 

 the State. About 260 replies were promptly received. The delin- 

 quents were again written to, and in all 375 replies were promptly 

 received. The data received is made the subject of a special re- 

 port and will be found on page 59. 



Field Work. — The field work consisted in inspecting woodlots. 

 in response to requests from owners who asked the secretary to 

 examine their woodlots and to make suggestions as to how to im- 

 prove and to manage them. Several plantations that were visited 

 last year were revisited for the purpose of collecting additional 

 data. The amount of field work was necessarily limited on ac- 

 count of lack of funds. The new plantations visited are deemed 

 worthy of record and are as follows :
