timbers, London International Exhibition, 1S62.)

My readers are invited to read my two articles on “ The Dorrigo Forest 
Reserve” in the Agricultural Gazette for 1894. 
Part i. “A general account of the country and how to get there.” (April.) 
Part ii. “A list of the plants collected, with descriptive notes of those of 
economic or botanical interest.” (September.) 
The Dorrigo, and its approach from the Bellinger River, are noted localities 
for brush timbers.
