Download or read book First Book of Forestry Classic Reprint written by Filibert Roth and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Book of Forestry During the last twenty years the general interest in forestry has grown with remarkable rapidity in all parts of our country. The federal government has set aside large forest reserves, and several states have established reservations or parks. The private owners of large tracts of forest lands are employing trained foresters to care for their property, and an improvement in the smaller holdings is everywhere noticeable. Forestry is taught in two special schools in America, and elementary courses on the subject are given in several colleges and preparatory schools. A desire has been expressed to introduce this useful and interesting study into our public schools and country homes, and this volume is an attempt to provide a book on the subject which shall satisfy this demand. In keeping with this purpose there has been no attempt to write a textbook or manual of forestry; but an effort has been made to present in simple, non-technical language some of the general principles underlying the science, and to state the methods which are employed and the objects to be attained in the practice of forestry. Early association with the well-kept forests of Germany, observations made in the widely differing forest districts of our own country, and three years' experience in teaching forestry have helped to make the responsible task of preparing this book a pleasure.

Download or read book Forestry Classic Reprint written by Adam Friedrich Schwappach and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forestry By way of preface to this translation of Professor Schwappach's Forstwissenschaft, a word or two of explanation seems necessary. The author has been careful to avoid anything which is only locally applicable, so that the matter which the book contains is quite as suitable for British as for German readers. Forest conditions change within Germany as they do within our own country, but the principles - the natural laws - governing forest practice are unalterable, being the same at all times and in all places. This being so, the English adaptation of a book dealing concisely with these principles and emanating from such an able author must surely be useful. Forestry in its economic aspect is the subject treated, and anything peculiar to Germany or any other country is specifically mentioned. Some portions of the original, particularly Forest History and Valuation, have been abridged; while those bearing on Sowing and Planting, Insects, Fungi, and Forest Management have been somewhat extended. The illustrations also have been added. I must, no doubt, hold myself responsible for the book in the form in which it is now given to English readers, but I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to Dr. Eric A. Nobbs, of the Department of Agriculture, Cape of Good Hope, who began the translation. Also to Dr. William Somerville, of the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, my thanks are due for the helpful interest he has taken in the work.

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. It is necessary that we preserve, protect, and expandour timber lands. By so doing we shall provide for the needs of future generations.

Download or read book English Estate Forestry Classic Reprint written by A. C. Forbes and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Estate Forestry This book contains the opinions and impressions of a practical forester on a few of the more important subjects connected with English Estate Forestry. In its pages an attempt has been made to place the position of Estate Forestry clearly before the reader, and to indicate a few directions in which improvements are possible. The Author feels, probably in common with many practical foresters, that English Forestry is sufficiently distinct from Continental, or even Scotch Forestry to entitle it to be regarded as a separate subject, and that the non-recognition of this fact has led to a great deal of misconception in the minds of many, who are more or less anxious to see English Forestry raised to a higher level. This book is intended to be suggestive rather than instructive to the practical forester. There is little in its pages but what he already knows, and possibly a great deal with which he will not agree. But as a more or less faithful record of individual experience it is offered as a small contribution to forestry literature, which, if it does not enrich, it will not, it is hoped, disgrace. To the woodland proprietor it may also prove more suggestive than instructive. He will, at any rate, find its few recommendations in accord with his own interests, and that both Sport and Landscape Effect have been dealt with sympathetically.

Download or read book On the Forestry Conditions written by Filbert Roth and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Forestry Conditions: Northern Wisconsin In 1897 the legislature of Wisconsin passed an act for the appointment of a State Forestry Commission, charged, among other duties, with that of formulating desirable forestry legislation for the State. The Commission consists of Hon. G. B. Burrows, Madison; Ernst Brucken, Milwaukee; and H. D. Putnam, Eau Claire. This Commission consulted with Dr. B. E. Fernow. Chief of the Division of Forestry, United States Department of Agriculture, who advised that a careful reconnaissance be made of the present condition of the forests of the State. The Department of Agriculture offered to send an expert to make such examination, provided the expenses of the trip could be defrayed by the State. Since the Forestry Commission had no appropriation for this purpose, application was made to the Geological and Natural History Survey for an appropriation of money sufficient to defray the expenses of the proposed investigation, and the Survey gladly acceded to the request. Pursuant to this action the Department of Agriculture appointed Mr. Filibert Roth as special agent to make the reconnaissance desired, under the general direction of Dr. Fernow, Chief of Division of Forestry. Mr. Roth spent three months in the field and prepared the accompanying report. The report was first submitted to the Department of Agriculture at Washington, by which it has been published as a bulletin, and a copy was transmitted to the Director of the Geological Survey, with the accompanying letter from the Secretary of Agriculture.

Download or read book Forestry in Minnesota Classic Reprint written by Samuel B. Green and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forestry in Minnesota This book has been prepared especially for the classes in forestry in the School of Agriculture of the University of Minnesota. It is really a compilation of the lectures and mimeographed notes that I have found useful in my experience in teaching the elementary principles of forestry. The word forestry is here used in the broad sense in which it is often used in this section and includes much that, strictly speaking, would come under several allied heads. In the use of botanical names I have followed, so far as possible, those given by Dr. George B. Sudworth in his "Nomenclature of the Arborescent Flora of the United States," which has been adopted as the standard for the Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations. Otherwise the Index Kewensis has been followed. But where these names are different from those commonly used by horticulturists in current literature the more familiar term is also generally given in brackets. I have received many kind suggestions and criticisms from Dr. Otto Lugger, St. Anthony Park; Hon. L. R. Moyer, Montevideo; and Messrs. John S. Harris, La Crescent; Clarence Wedge, Albert Lea; F. H. Nutter, Minneapolis, and J. M. Underwood, Lake City. Professor Conway McMillan has furnished many specimens for drawings. My assistant, Mr. W. A. Wheeler, has given much careful attention to the revision of the manuscript and has corrected many errors that would otherwise have crept in. I am especially indebted to all these parties who have aided me in this work, and I wish to extend my sincere thanks for their interest and kindness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Is Forestry? Sir: The unusual interest shown in the subject-matter contained in the following pages, when presented in the form of public addresses delivered by me as your representative before various bodies (notably before the State Boards of Agriculture of Kansas and Nebraska and the Chamber of Commerce of Rochester, New York), makes it appear desirable to publish the same for a larger audience. At first sight it may be thought incongruous to present under one cover the two aspects of forestry, the reader from the treeless plains being seemingly not interested in the treatment of the forest cover in wooded country, and vice versa. But while on general principles it is desirable that all citizens should understand the forestry problem as it presents itself in the different parts of the country, the knowledge which is gained in the natural for est is an aid in forest-planting, and the principles which underlie forest planting are also to some extent of influence in forest management. Hence both aspects are best presented together. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Practice of Forestry Classic Reprint written by Christopher Young Michie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 346 pages. 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.
