Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Maryland State Board of Forestry for 1910 and 1911 The State Board of Forestry has been in existence a little over five years, and during that time it has prosecuted the work of laying the foundations of a State forest policy that should meet the needs of our people. Maryland, with its acres of woodland, is unable to pro duce more than one-third of the timber she uses because of destructive methods of cutting, and the injury resulting from repeated forest fires. If her forest lands were as fully productive as they could be made by proper forest management, they would produce three times as much as they are now doing, and the value would be at least four times as great, due to the better quality of product. Instead Of importing the bulk of her timber, the State might be growing all that she requires, or its value equivalent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Timber Industries of Maryland Forest industries used over 42 million cubic feet of timber from the forests of Maryland in 1975. Almost 58 percent of this volume was from hardwood trees. Sawlogs were the major timber product, accounting for slightly more than 55 percent of the total harvest in Maryland. Pulpwood production ranked second in volume, accounting for 33 percent of the total. Other timber products that made up a minor portion of the harvest were veneer and cooperage logs, piling, poles, posts, mine timbers, and handle stock. Overall, the timber harvest in Maryland has decreased 25 percent since the last industry sur vey was made in 1963, and 19 percent since 1952. Even though the production of most products declined between 1963 and 1975, two products showed substantial increases: the harvest of veneer logs and pulpwood increased 42 and 27 percent respectively. These production gains were due entirely to an increase in the use of softwoods for pulpwood and veneer. The softwood harvest for pulpwood increased from million cubic feet in 1963 to million cubic feet in 1975 and the softwood veneer-log harvest increased from cubic feet to million cubic feet. The veneer log production was stimulated by the establishment of a softwood plywood plant on Maryland's eastern shore in 1967. This plywood plant is the only one using. Softwoods in the Northeast. In 1975, most of the industrial timber harvest came from eastern Maryland (fig. The 17 million cubic-foot harvest from the South Eastern Shore Unit represented 39 percent of the state total. Although the North Central Unit ranked second in volume harvested - 11 million cubic feet - a greater volume of sawlogs was harvested from this unit than from any of the other units. The Western Unit had the largest pulpwood harvest from hardwoods; the million cubic feet of pulpwood production was 89 percent of the hardwood total for Maryland. Charles County, in the Southern Unit, was the state's largest hardwood sawlog producer in 1975 million board feet); Worcester County produced the largest volume of softwood saw logs million board feet).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rob of the Bowl: A Legend of St. Inigoe's; A Story of the Early Days of Maryland Ir is now more than one hundred and forty-four years since the ancient capital of Maryland was shorn of its honors, by the removal of the public oflices, and, along with them, the public functionaries, to Annapolis. The date of this removal, I think, is recorded as of the year of grace sixteen hundred and ninety four. The port of St. Mary's, up to that epoch, from the first settlement of the province, comprehending rather more than three score years, had been the seat of the Lord Proprietary's govern ment. This little city had grown up in hard-favored times, which had their due effect in leaving upon it the visible tokens of a stunted vegetation: it waxed gnarled and crooked, as it perked itself upward through the thorny troubles of its existence, and might be likened to the black jack, which yet retains a foothold in this region, -a scrubby, tough and hardy mignon of the forest, whose elder day of crabbed luxuriance affords a sour comment' upon the nurture of its youth.
