Phipps, Esq., for a copy of his v.e ry interesting Forestry Report, pu blishad by the Ontario Government. The preseut volume, written in Mr. Phipp"s beet style, contains amon~ other good things a11ent the best way to preserve and protfct our 1imber, also a brief description of what has been done this yoar in Ontario . As the forestry question here is ultimately connec·ed with the amount of timber standing in tbe St.ates, a foll account of the position of affairs there is giv ..n,State by State, with results of ot"er-clearing and other valuable information. The planting <·f evergreen wind-breaks is the simplest and most practicable method uf regaining our lost forest shelter, and if followed up would, at a very slight expense to each farroer, be much good to the country. A large chapter hns therefore been devoted to the a.dv1eabi~ity and method of. this, and trees fit for the purpose. There is also (and it makes the book very valuable for reference) a complete list of thG trees of O c itario , i;<iving scientific description and means of knowing each, with statement of what other parts of North America they are found in, and uses, value and stren~th of timber in each. Many letters containing muc'!i informa· tion on l<'cal forestry will also be found from all par ~of Ontario, and a va.lnable etateml'Jot c.rncerniug effects of forest denudations by a leading Am6l'ican scieutiat.
