FORESTRY LEAGUE.
ANNUAL CONFERENCE.
(FBSBS ASSOCIATION TBUKUAIf,)
WELLINGTON, July 16.
The annual conference of the New Zealand Forestry League was held tonight. In the absence of Sir James Wilson, Mr Leigh Hunt presided. The many activities of the League during the past year were detailed. "Until we have established a School of Forestry," said Sir James Wilson in an address read to the meeting, "there is always the necessity for the League. The battle of the site 3 for the School stops the way so far as a selection is concerned." New Zealand was practically at the end of her timber which would stand weather and wet in the open, and the standby of the earlier settlers waa gone. Mr James Deans (Canterbury) was elected chairman, and the following executive waß appointed:—Messrs Hoggard, Hunt, Mackintosh, Ellis, Orchiston, Denton, Wood, Phillips, Turner, Holmes, Sanderson, o#d Seed.
