Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests and Trees This book has been written to assist in impressing upon the young the value of our forests and to give them some appreciation of what is being done, as well as of what must yet be done, in order to preserve them. It is not a handbook on forestry, but contains interesting information which, it is hoped, will tend to create a healthy public opinion regarding the use and care of trees. While the book is really the expression of that appreciation of trees which comes only from long and intimate acquaintance, yet the literature on the subject has been freely used, and the author wishes to acknowledge the help received from the following: Sargent's "Manual of the Trees of North America"; Britton's "North American Trees"; Fernow's "Care of Trees"; Britton and Brown's Illustrated Flora of the Northern States and Canada; "Gray's New Manual of Botany" by Robinson and Fernald; Rydberg's "Flora of the Rocky Mountains and Adjacent Plains"; Coulter and Nelson's "Rocky Mountain Flora;" and Macoun's "Catalogue of Canadian Plants." Very particular mention should also be made of the many excellent publications of the Forestry Branch of the Department of the Interior; and special thanks are due to Mr. R. H. Campbell, Director of Forestry, for valuable suggestions and assistance, as well as for a very careful and suggestive reading of the proof sheets by the staff of the Forestry Branch.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the Field and Forest The descriptions of the phases of the year, included in this volume, were first printed in the years 1839 and 1840, in the "Boston Weekly Magazine," published by D. H. Ela and John B. Hall, The author afterwards, for several years, devoted himself entirely to the political press. Finding at last, that to keep along with his party, he must be prepared, on the arrival of every new era, to repudiate, if not to execrate the opinions and measures-which he had formerly defended, he renounced all connection with politics, and in 1853, resumed his occupation in that department of literature which he had so long neglected. The pieces now presented to the public are a selection from the contributions of the author to the periodical press, with the addition of several new ones. A large portion of these appeared originally in Charles M. Hovey's "Magazine of Horticulture," and a few others in the "Salem Gazette," in which the descriptions of the months were likewise reprinted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies of Trees IN presenting this volume, the author is aware that there are several excellent books, dealing with one phase or another of tree life, already before the public. It is believed, how ever, that there is still need for an all-round book, adapted to the beginner, which gives in a brief and not too technical way the most important facts concerning the identification, structure and uses of our more common trees, and Which considers their habits, enemies and care both when grow ing alone and when growing in groups or forests. In the chapters on the identification of trees, the aim has been to bring before the student only such characters and facts as shall help him to distinguish the tree readily during all seasons of the year. Special stress is laid in each case on the most striking peculiarities. Possible confusion with other trees of similar appearance is prevented as far as possible through comparisons with trees of like form or habit. Only such information is given concerning the structure and requirements of trees as will enable the reader better to understand the subsequent chapters. In the second half of the book, practical application is made of the student's general knowledge thu's acquired, and he is acquainted with the fundamental principles of planting, care, forestry, wood identification and nature study. The author recognizes the vastness of the field he is attempting to cover and the impossibility of even touching.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sylva Americana: Or a Description of the Forest Trees Indigenous to the United States, Practically and Botanically Considered Among the variety of useful and interesting productions abounding in this vast continent, none claim our attention in a more eminent degree than the indigenous trees of our forests. Independent of ornamenting the earth and of furnishing us with timber and fuel, they arrest the progress of impetuous and dangerous winds; maintain the temperature of the air by diminishing extreme cold, and regulating intense heat; oppose the formation of ice, and shelter the earth from the scorching rays of the sun; produce an abundance of water in the streams, and oppose a barrier to washing away or undermining their banks; preserve and enrich the soil on hills and mountains; discharge the electricity of the atmosphere; and serve as laboratories for purifying the air we breathe. The trees of our country recall the idea of it in the most forcible manner, wherever we meet them; and are often the first objects that attract the attention of those who have been long absent from their native land, and who, on their return, pour out their genuine effusions of joy on beholding them. We are aware that many an American has sighed under the shade of the banana for a sight at the village elm, the well-known oak, or the unchanged pine of New England. We are told of a young Indian, Pontaveri from Otaheite, who, amidst the splendor of Paris, regretting the simple beauty of his native island, sprang forward at the unexpected sight of a banana tree in the Garden of Plants, embraced it, while his eyes were bathed in tears, and exclaiming with a voice of rapture... "Ah! tree of my native country!" seemed by a delightful illusion of sensibility, to imagine himself, for a moment; transported to the land which gave him birth. In the United States, there are more than 140 species of forest trees, which exceed 30 feet in height: in France, there are but 30 trees that attain this size, of which 18 enter into the composition of the forests, and 7 only are employed in building. Though vast tracts of our soil are still veiled from the eye of day by primeval forests, the best materials for building are nearly exhausted.

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 Tales of the Woods and Fields Tun: common Opinion concerning the nymphs whom the ancients called Hamadryads, is more to the honour of trees than anything yet mentioned. It was thought that the fate of these nymphs had so near a dependance on some trees, more especially oaks, that they lived and died together., For this reason they were extremely grateful to such persons as preserved those trees with which their being subsisted. A certain youth, being about to fell an oak, having, at the entreaty of the Hamadryad who inhabited it, preserved it in this manner, the nymph conceived a violent attachment to him, and they long lived together in the forest, happy in each other's society. But he, becoming weary of this simple life, returns to his old friends and associates in the city, which desertion threw the unfortunate Hamadryad into the most grievous despair.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Forest Tree Culturist: A Treatise on the Cultivation of American Forest Trees, With Notes on the Most Valuable Foreign Species Thousands of men are toiling this day to lay up wealth for their children, when if they would invest a small amount in land and then plant a few acres Of our best forest trees, their money would grow into a fortune by the time their children had grown into manhood. To some this may appear visionary; but the writer has lived long enough to see trees grow from saplings that would hardly bear his weight at ten years Old, up to great trees two feet in diameter, and he has scarcely passed the half-way house of three-score and ten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common Forest Trees of North Carolina, How to Know Them: A Pocket Manual Trees are the largest and oldest of living creatures. They are in one way or another perhaps more closely associated with our own daily lives than is any other class of living things, yet most of us know less about them and can hardly even tell one kind of tree from another. It is hoped that this book will furnish in formation which will enable even the child to know our common trees at Sight, and will stimulate so great an interest in the life and habits of these forest friends that all North Carolinians may learn to appreciate, foster and protect the great heritage of our trees. In using this book it should be borne in mind that nearly two-thirds of the area of our State is still classed as forest land; that much of this has had the greater part or all of the merchantable timber cut from it; that there IS practically no more virgin forest; and that in most areas the second crop of timber is less in quantity and inferior in quality to the'origi'nal forest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forestry in Nature Study: Issued by the Office of Experiment Stations in Cooperation With the Forest Service Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith a manuscript prepared by the Forest Service for special distribution among teachers at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition. In view of the large interests of the Northwest and of the whole country in forest conservation and in the methods of forest replacement, and the growing interest of public-school teachers in these matters, it seems desirable to present this tentative plan of elementary instruction in the subject to the attention of teachers for the purpose of drawing out their criticisms and suggestions with reference to it. With the understanding that the results of such suggestions shall be embodied in more permanent form in future bulletins by this Office, I therefore recommend the immediate publication of this manuscript as a special circular of this Office.
