Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from National Monuments as Wild-Life Sanctuaries: Address Delivered at the National Parks Conference at Washington, D. C., January 4, 1917 Much has been written and many photographs have been published illustrating the wild life in the national parks. The bears, the buffalo, and the elk of the Yellowstone are as closely associated with this park as are the hot springs or geysers. The mountain sheep is almost as closely associated with the Rocky Mountain Park or the mountain goat with the Mount Rainier or the Glacier Park as are waterfalls with Yosemite or the big trees with the Sequoia Park. Of national parks there are now 16 and of national monuments 21 in charge of the National Park Service of the Department of the Interior. In addition, there are 11 national monuments on national forests in charge of the Forest Service of the Department of Agriculture, and 2 national monuments under the jurisdiction of the War Department. Of these 50 reservations, the 34 monuments have a combined area of about 1, 900 square miles, or a little more than one-fourth the area of the national parks and a little less than that of the State of Delaware. Comparatively little has been published on the wild life of the national monuments and even the existence of some of the most interesting reservations is scarcely known to the public. Much less has the tourist or casual visitor a -clear idea of what constitutes a national monument, of the diverse character of monuments, or of the distinction between a national monument and a national park. This, perhaps, is not surprising when it is recalled that only a few years ago a former Cabinet officer to whom was submitted a recommendation for the establishment of one of the larger national monuments inquired, "What kind of a monument do you propose to build?" And upon being assured that it was not the intention to build any monument, but merely to preserve some objects of unusual scientific interest under the national monuments act, remarked, "Well, I don't know what you are going to do, but if Mr. - says it is all right I will approve the recommendation." And within a few days the monument became an accomplished fact. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book begins with the principal subject of biodiversity in agriculture. The onslaught of highly soil extractive chemical farming, euphemistically called the “green revolution”, has taken a heavy toll on soil biodiversity, hence, soil sustenance. Agrobiodiversity is a key resource for humanity. All of the food requirements humanity depends on are met by agrobiodiversity. Similarly, fodder fiber, firewood, and many other basic needs of humankind are also met by agrobiodiversity. The book puts forward ideas on how we are to develop a sustainable future, to provide a healthy and thriving environment for humanity by protecting, conserving, and augmenting agrobiodiversity. The pedosphere, the outermost layer of the Earth, composed of soil and subject to soil formation processes, is an integral component of biosphere, lying on the interface of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere and a lot more complex in its physicochemical and biological characteristics and functioning and quite distinguishable from that of the above soil-surface terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The biotic component of the pedosphere comprises a rich biodiversity of living species, dominated by microorganisms. This book considers and discusses the influences of soil formation processes. This book will be of interest to those engaged in researching biodiversity, agriculture, and crop science.
