the  town  site  of  Hilo,  can  be  put  up  at  auction  and  a large  rev- 
enue received.  The  greater  portion  of  the  tract  will  undoubtedly 
be  reserved  for  forest  purposes.  The  situation  is  one  which 
demands  attention  in  the  immediate  future,  whether  viewed  from 
the  standpoint  of  the  Territory  or  that  of  the  lessee.

AN  INTERESTING  PUBLICATION. 
As  this  number  of  the  Forester  contains  much  information  of 
value  to  the  Apiarist,  it  may  not  be  out  of  order  to  call  attention 
to  the  very  excellent  publication,  “Gleanings  in  Bee  Culture,” 
which  is  published  weekly  by  the  A.  I.  Root  Company  of  Medina, 
Ohio.  The  paper  is  an  exceedingly  readable  little  publication  and 
contains  many  valuable  articles  during  the  year,  interspersed  with 
a great  deal  of  instructive  advice  to  the  honey  producer.  The 
issue  of  December  15,  which  is  just  received,  is  a particularly 
attractive  one  and  contains  many  good  illustrations.
