Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Annual Meetings, AND AT THE World's Fair Congress, Chicago, October 18 and 19, 1893. VOLUME X. WASHINGTON, D. C.: FORESTRY 2 A504 NOTICE. #10-15 The Proceedings of the American Forestry Association have hitherto been published irregularly, the volumes not being numbered. With the improved financial condition of the association, and its greatly increased membership. a regular issue of the annual proceedings in future appears warranted, and it seems desirable to designate, by numbers, not only the coming volumes but also those previously issued. The present volume is, therefore, numbered X. The series of previous volumes includes the following publications: Vol. I.-Proceedings of the special meeting at Montreal, August, 1882. Papers read before the meeting printed separately by the Canadian Government in the Ontario Fruit Growers' Report. (The proceedings of the first annual meeting, that held at Cincinnati, April 25-29, 1882, were not published in pamphlet form.) Vol. II.-Proceedings of the second annual meeting, at St. Paul, August, 1883. Also, Forestry Bulletins No. 1 (May, 1884); No. 2 (September, 1884); No. 3 (January, 1885). Vol. III.-Proceedings of the special meeting at Washington, D. C., May, 1884, and third annual meeting, at Saratoga, New York, September, 1884. Vol. IV.-Proceedings of the fourth annual meeting, held at Boston, September, 1885. Vol. V.-Proceedings of the fifth annual meeting, held at Denver, Colorado, September, 1886. (Newspaper report.) Vol. VI.-Proceedings of the sixth annual meeting, held in Springfield, Illi- Vol. VII.-Proceedings of the seventh annual meeting, held at Atlanta, Ga., Vol. VIII.-Proceedings of the summer meeting, held in Quebec, September, Vol. IX.-Papers read at joint session of the American Economic Association and the American Forestry Association, held at Washington, D.
