Abstract
THE Imperial Forestry Bureau at Oxford has commenced the issue of a publication entitled Forestry Abstracts. The lines upon which this quarterly journal, as it is designated, are based, follow those of the well-known Experiment Station Record of the United States Department of Agriculture, which is now in its eightieth volume. This latter publication is not, however, confined to forestry. Forestry Abstracts is intended to record in the English language brief reviews and précis of the current forestry literature of the world. The general idea is that each issue will include short reviews of literature in different branches of forestry, with notes on annual forestry reports, and abstracts classified by subjects. “In the abstracts the aim is to epitomize the contents of each paper so as to enable the reader to judge of its value as a contribution to knowledge”. The subject headings are as follow: General Forestry; Fundamental Natural Laws of the Forest; Tree Species; Forest Botany; Forest Zoology; Sylviculture; Utilization; Technology; Protection; Increment, Yield; Management, Working Plans, Surveys; Economics; Administration; Policy.
