In presenting the second edition of "Tasmanian Forestry, Timber Products, and Sawmilling Industry," it is observed that the information that was contained in the first edition has been carefully revised, added to, and brought up to date by the Chief Forest Officer.<br><br>The publication of a pamphlet on Tasmanian timbers has been found to supply a want, as a means of disseminating information in regard to the value of the woods produced by the indigenous trees of the State, and the various uses for which these woods are adapted.<br><br>The number of requests that have been received for copies of this small work have far exceeded expectations, and the distribution of them has extended to all parts of the world.<br><br>It is desired to specially acknowledge the valuable services rendered by Mr. L. Rodway, Honorary Botanist to the Government of Tasmania, in the compilation of this pamphlet, and for his instructive contribution, "The Genus Eucalypt."
