Associations and Magazines. 139 
organized in 1897, two years later an amalgamation of 
the two was effected in the Deutscher Forstverein (now 
over 2000 members). The most striking feature of this 
forceful means of advancing forestry is the institution 
of the Forstwirtschaftsrat, a permanent committee of 
about 50 members, which is to look after the political 
and economic interests of forestry. 
There also exists an international association of forest 
experiment stations. 
In the magazine literature the Cameralists dom- 
inated until the eighteenth century. The first journal 
edited by a forester was Reitter’s “Journal fir Forst 
und Jagdwesen” which ran from 1790 to 1797. Dur- 
ing the first part of the century many others were 
started, especially after 1820, usually failing soon for 
lack of support. Hartig himself participated in this 
literature with five volumes (until 1807) of the Jour- 
nal des Forst-Jagd-und Fischereiwesens and later (1816 
to 1820) with the semi-official journal Forst und Jagd- 
archiv. Pfeil’s Kritische Blatter were continued by 
him from 1823 to 1859, when Nérdlinger had the edi- 
torship till 1870. An irregular publication of much 
note was Burkhardt’s Aus dem Walde” (1865-1881). 
Some of the journals founded in earlier times have 
continued with changes in title and editorships to the 
present day. Of these it is proper to mention as the 
oldest, “Allgemeine Forst und Jagdzeitung, founded by 
v. Behlen, 1825, later conducted by G. Heyer; “Forsi- 
wissenschaftliches Centralblatt” (1828); “Zeitschrift 
fiir Forst und Jagdwesen” founded in 1869 by Dankel- 
mann; “Forstliche Blatter” founded 1861 by Grunert, 
continued by Borggreve until 1890. The Tharandter
