It  is  proposed  to  join  to  the  Report,  on  the  Forest  Wealth  of  the 
United  States,  now  in  course  of  preparation,  a  Catalogue  of  the  Forest 
Trees  of  North  America,  with  special  reference  to  their  geographical 
distribution  and  economic  properties  and  uses. 

Knowledge  of  this  nature  in  regard  to  our  trees  is  still  so  imperfect 
that  it  is  impossible  to  make  such  a  catalogue  at  all  exhaustive  without 
the  assistance  of  botanists,  and  others  interested  in  trees  and  their  pro- 
ducts, in  every  part  of  the  country. 

Information  on  the  following  points  is  particularly  needed. 

1.  The  extreme  geographical  range  of  any  species. 

2.  The  region  and  elevation  where  any  species  is  principally  multi- 
plied and  reaches  its  greatest  perfection. 

3.  The  geological  formation  most  favorable  to  the  multiplication  and 
development  of  any  species. 

4.  Dimensions  of  remarkably  developed  specimens  of  any  species. 

5.  The  common  or  local  name  of  ahy  species  in  addition  to  those 
already  given. 

6.  The  purposes,  however  unimportant,  for  which  the  wood  of  any 
species  is  employed. 

7.  Products  of  any  species  other  than  wood,  such  as  tannin,  charcoal, 
dyes,  i>otash,  edible  fruit,  forage,  &c. 

Any  information  or  corrections  which  will  serve  to  make  the  final 
publication  more  exact  and  complete  will  be  gratefully  received  and  duly 
acknowledged. 

To  facilitate  the  collection  and  preservation  of  such  information  the 
present  preliminary  catalogue  is  now  published.  The  blank  pages  are 
intended  for  field-notes  and  corrections.  After  these  are  written  in,  the 
whole  catalogue,  or  the  notes  and  observations  separately,  as  may  be 
most  convenient,  should  be  returned  to —

The  forests  of  this  species  are  economicnilly  the  nio.st  valuable  of  Cal-

danger  of  speedy  extermination. 

»'  In  size  the  red  wood  usually  averages  8  to  lli  feet  in  diameter,  and 
from  200  to  .')00  in  height,  with  a  straight  cylindrical  barrel,  naked  to
