Abstract
FROM the annual report of the Forestry Department of the Nyasaland Protectorate for the year ending December 31, 1940 (Govt. Printer, Zomba, Nyasaland, 1941), it appears that a happy relationship has been established between that Department and the Agricultural Department. The Forestry Department has to some extent undertaken duties which bring it into direct relationship with the agricultural habits and practices of the local population. The Conservator reports that during the year the Provincial Agricultural Officer visited the southern course for special discussions, and the Director of Agriculture addressed the Foresters at the close of the course. These courses are annual ones given to the subordinate forest staff by divisional forest officers and lasting 10–14 days. The aims of the forestry policy in Nyasaland have been already discussed in NATURE.
