Piche, Chief of the Forest Service for the Province of Quebec, outUned the forestry policy of the new Prime ^lini- ster, Hon. L. A. Taschereau. Mr. Piche dwelt principally upon the monetary value of the wood-using industries to the province, especially referring to the pulp and paper industries. Mr. Piche pointed out that the provincial govern- ment was determined to prevent the timber resources of th-^ province from being wasted or over-exploited and to take full advantage of the opportunities now presented for turning the forest re- sources into actual wealth. It was also stated by Mr. Piche that Forest Posts would shortly be established at Hamil- ton Bay, Ungava Bay and James Bay. from which foresters will go out and make inventories of the forest resources of the province. These posts will be connected by wireless telegraph, and will have the assistance of aeroplanes, which will be used to make photographic surveys.

Tt is now generally recognizetl that the forest industries of the pro- vince are entering uijon the most pro- sperous period of their history.
