This bibliography of forestry in California attempts to bring together such books, official reports and articles in periodicals as may appear serviceable to the forester or the non-professional student. It does not include the exceedingly large amount of popular writing designed to further the adoption of protective measures, nor descriptive matter of primarily a literary character. Even in its chosen field, it does not pretend to be exhaustive. Important data and discussions, especially in dendrology and forest description, will be found scattered through innumerable botanical, geological, and other scientific books and periodi- cals. To gather them would involve an amount of labor quite dispro- portionate to the harvest thus to be collected. There are a number of periodicals quite indispensable to the student of California forestry, which have not been analyzed because they are provided with such excellent indices, that their California articles may be readily found. Among these are : » Garden and Forest. The Forestry Quarterly. Forestry and Irrigation. (This periodical was in its earlier volumes known as The Forester. The publishers have recently announced the contemplated change of name to Conservation.) Water and Forest. The trade papers dealing with lumbering and other forest industries will, of course, not be neglected by the student. The most important of these are The American Lumberman (formerly Northwestern Lumber- man), and Pacific Coast Wood and Iron. In the office of the State Forester at Sacramento -numerous manu- script notes on California forestry are being collected. In the State Library at Sacramento newspaper clippings on this subject arc preserved. GENERAL PUBLICATIONS. LAKE BIGLER FORESTRY COMMISSION.

For legislation relating to National Forests and Forestry by Federal authority in general, see U. S. Statutes at Large, one or two volumes annually. Much of this legislation is to be sought for in the annual appropriation acts for the Agricultural Department. The boundaries of the National Forests may be learned from the proclama- tions of the President of United States, establishing or modifying them. These are first issued on quarto sheets, and afterwards printed in the annual volumes of the Statutes at Large. National Parks are created by acts of Congress. See Statutes at Large, and Compiled Statutes of United States. A convenient compilation of recent changes in boundaries will be found in Forestry and Irrigation for August, 1908.
