Excerpt from The American Journal of Forestry: Devoted to the Interests of Forest Tree Planting, the Formation and Care of Woodlands, and Ornamental Planting Generally, and to the Various Economies Therein Concerned; September, 1882-October, 1883 I refer to the establishment of a Journal of Forestry, which should be wholly devoted to the advancement of this measure, upon every scientific and practical point that comes within its province, and wholly free from the bias of interest in affairs of trade. In short, a journal that shall do for Forestry what the American Jour nal of Science and Art has done for the Sciences generally in our country, and which this and other and more special journals are now doing for the interests they have in charge.
