Book excerpt: Excerpt from Careers in Forestry As early as 1912, it is estimated, there were approximately 500 men in the United States with a greater or less degree of technical training in forestry. These were in addition to forest rangers who began without a technical background, but who through their own experience in national and State work' had acquired considerable practical knowledge of certain phases of the subject. The importance of proper training now and in the future for a career in the field of forestry cannot be overestimated. As the num ber of foresters steadily increases and competition becomes more keen, thorough education will become more and more necessary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The School Book of Forestry Our forests, with their billions of trees, are the backbone of agriculture, the skeleton of lum bering, and the heart of industry. Even now, in spite of their depletion, they are the cream of our natural resources. They furnish wood for the nation, pasture for thousands of cattle and sheep, and water supply for countless cities and farms. They are the dominions of wildlife. Millions of birds, game animals, and fish live in the forests and the forest streams. The time is coming when our forests will be the greatest playgrounds of America.

Download or read book The Profession of Forestry Classic Reprint written by Henry S. Graves and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Profession of Forestry During the last decade forestry in the United States has developed with remarkable rapidity. The inauguration of forest management on the National Forests, the activity of various States in public for estry, and the increasing interest of private owners in timber growing and protection have resulted in a marked demand for trained foresters. When active work in forestry first began there were no forest schools in the country, and those entering upon the work were obliged to go to Europe for technical training. In anticipation of the need for foresters, and in order to aid in the development of for estry, several progressive institutions established schools of forestry even before the demand for any considerable number of men was definitely assured. The first professional school was established at Cornell University in 1898. This was followed in 1900 by the Yale Forest School. Private instruction in forestry was given at Biltmore, North Carolina, by Doctor Schenck in connection with his work on the Vanderbilt estate as early as 1897, and a school for rangers was started by the State of Pennsylvania at Mont Alto, Pennsylvania, in 1903. Since that time instruction in forestry has been introduced in a large num ber of institutions. To-day there are 22 institutions which give courses leading to a degree in forestry, and about 40 others which include forestry in their curricula. It is estimated that there are fully 500 men in the United States with a greater or less degree of technical training, in addition to forest rangers who began without a knowledge of the technical side of forestry, but many of whom through their experience in National and State forest work under technical direction have acquired considerable knowledge of certain phases of the subject. There are probably about young men studying in the forest schools. Forestry may therefore be considered an established profession in the United States. Hundreds of young men are considering it as a life vocation, and are eager to be informed regarding the character of work involved, the elements necessary for success, the requirements for an adequate training, the present and probable future opportuni ties for work, and its possibilities as a means of livelihood.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Profession of Forestry: Including an Address A man who takes up forestry will often find the field work exceedingly or even unexpectedly hard, for it combines severe mental work with severe bodily labor, under conditions which make each one peculiarly trying. Work in the woods differs profoundly from camp life as it is usually understood. Foresters get a cer tain amount of hunting and fishing, and every forester will do his work better for a wholesome love of the rod and gun, but the line between work and play is still sharply drawn.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Practice of Forestry There is much truth in the proverb, "Well begun is half done." It need not here be questioned whether this is literally true or not; but one thing is certain, in the planting and culture of forest-trees every false step taken must be a backward one. As soon as a piece of ground is fixed upon for planting, the forester should take every available means and opportunity of knowing all that can be known about it. By this it is not implied that any one is capable of knowing everything that is desirable to be known, but that he should put himself in possession of as much knowledge of the subject as he possibly can. We often learn as much from the mistakes and failures as we do from the successes of ourselves or others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forestry Work MY reason for attempting to write of forestry work is that I feel there is need for a comparatively low-priced book giving a brief outline of the principles of sylviculture, and describing in more detail and in simple language the actual work, and the methods of arriving at certain facts and figures, which might serve as a stepping-stone to larger and more expensive works. Many young lads, when first entering the woods, cannot afford to buy expensive books, and are thus at a loss to know the proper way to do certain work, and the reason why it is done in certain ways. This small work may help to explain many of these things. It may also prove useful to older and more experienced men as a reference book, through the collection of tables at the end.

Download or read book Forests and Employment in Germany Classic Reprint written by William Norwood Sparhawk and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests and Employment in Germany In the United States, much thought is bemg given to the relation of sustained-yield forestry to employment and the support of permanent communities. It is of interest, therefore, to know something about the way in which the forests provide rural employment and thus supple ment agriculture in countries where forestry has been widely practiced for a long time. Germany is one of those countries. There, the use of most of the land has become fairly well stabilized. More than one-fourth of the land surface is covered with forest, and a large part of the forest area has been under relatively intensive management for Well over a-hundred years. This study was undertaken for the purpose of learning the extent to which the German forests afford work opportunities, particularly for rural people. It must be recognized from the start that political and social institutions and economic conditions in Germany are very unlike those in this country. Any form of sustained-yield forest management which may be developed in this country, therefore, must spring from our own economic conditions and political and social traditions. In working out methods and policies adapted to our own conditions, however, it is helpful to know what has happened elsewhere. One fact, borne out by long experience not only in Germany but also in other countries with quite different institutions and philos Ophiss, is that managed forests do provide a large and reasonably steady volume of work, and thereby contribute immeasurably toward the existence and welfare of permanent agriculture and settled rural populations. There is every reason to suppose that the general adoption of sustained-yield forest management in this country will have similar results.
