Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Study of Forestry The forest resources of Brazil are unmatched anywhere in the world. In extent, in number of species of trees, in potential values of products, the Brazilian forests are unique. They promise to be a factor of profound importance in the economic development of the country. Their permanent service in the upbuilding of Brazil will, however, depend upon the manner in which they are handled. It would be a great misfortune if they were exploited with the same disregard of the permanent interests of the nation that has characterized the history of the forests of the United States. With the application of sound and practical methods of forestry, the forest resources of Brazil will serve indefinitely as a source of great national wealth. A Great Field For Forestry. In many sections of Brazil the forests have already been heavily cut. A large part of this cutting has been largely done in clearing land for cultivation and pasture. There is, however, a considerable export trade in certain classes of timber and in various special products of the forest, and lumber is being cut in increasing quantities for home consumption. It is inevitable that in the near future there will be a much greater demand from other countries for Brazilian timber. The virgin forests in the temperate regions are being depleted very rapidly. Very soon America must look elsewhere for substitutes for hickory, ash, walnut, high-grade oak. and other material. It is a great opportunity for Brazil to supply this need. As soon as the qualities of the local species are better known, foreign manufacturers will demand them. There will then come the problem of exploration and research to determine the location of merchantable bodies of timber; capital and modern methods of lumbering will be needed to exploit the forests; and a lumber industry of great magnitude will be built up which will be an important factor in the economy of the nation. But in its own protection and to guard its future interests Brazil will have to see to it that the forests are cut in a way to insure perpetuation and to prevent devastation. Brazil has already taken the first step in the passing of a comprehensive forest code. Undoubtedly further legislation is required to establish and build up the organizations necessary to carry on the public work in forestry. In the United States but little progress in forestry was made until the Federal Government undertook the proper administration of the lands owned by the Nation and until there was in the country a body of professional foresters.

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 Studies in French Forestry Classic Reprint written by Theodore S. Woolsey and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in French Forestry The material for this book was collected largely in 1912. Administrative work in the United States Forest Service, teaching at Yale Forest School, and service in the Corps of Engineers, U. S. A., during the war prevented an earlier completion of my task. The success of the American Expeditionary Forces in securing its timber supply, under conditions existing in France in 1917-18, was due chiefly to the extraordinary capacity of the commanding officers at Tours and the American lumbermen and foresters who assisted them throughout France. These efforts might have failed, however, if the American E. F. had not been so ably seconded by l'Administration Generale des Eaux et Forets under the direction of M. Dabat, Conseiller d'Etat, Directeur, and by M. Antoni, now an Inspecteur General des Eaux et Forets and Sous-Directeur, as well as by the French officers and officials working under or in collaboration with General de Division Chevalier, D. S. M., Inspecteur General du Service des Bois, notably: Lieut.-Col. Joubaire, Armand, Conservateur des Eaux et Forets a Saumur, President de la Commission Forestiere d'Expertises. M.

Download or read book Studies of Trees Classic Reprint written by J. J. Levison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 268 pages. 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 Preliminary Study of Forest Conditions in Tennessee In accordance with this provision, the Geological Survey secured the cooperation Of the Forest Service Of the United States Depart ment Of Agriculture in a preliminary study of forest conditions in the State, the Forest Service paying one-half of the cost. The Oh ject of this study was to determine the forest resources and possi bilities 0f the State, the legislation needed to secure protection and preservation of the forests, and the lines along which more detailed forest investigations can most profitably be carried out. In No vember and December, 1910, typical sections Of each forest region were examined by a representative Of the Forest Service, and in terviews were Obtained with public Officials, lumbermen, and others familiar with local conditions. Considerable information was also Obtained from reports on private tracts previously examined by the Forest Service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Forests and Forestry In that paper, the commissioners were directed to be present upon the ground, if possible, by the first of May, and to remain until the end of October. They were instructed to organize as a committee, in the pres ence of the executive commissioner. Upon this committee devolved certain duties, such as the nomination of jurors. The chairman advised the Department of State of its organization, and of the progress of its labors. It is unnecessary here to recur to that part of the history of the commission and of the committee, further than to express individual regret that it became necessary, in some instances, to nominate its mem bers as candidates for appointments upon the International Jury. In explanation, it may be stated that it was found impossible to engage the services of a sufficient number of fellow-countrymen, and those who were obliged, by the duties of their office, to remain in Vienna were forced to accept these additional burdens.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forestry in Nature Study: Issued by the Office of Experiment Stations in Cooperation With the Forest Service The outline which follows 18 for the most part a compilation of the successful experience of successful nature-study teachers. The prao tical lines along which it has been evolved should merit for it a wide application. It is not proposed that the entire outline should be introduced by any one school, but that suitable portions of it be adapted to the needs and conditions of each school and utilized as part of the regular nature-study course. Field excursions and actual work among the trees are of far greater value than mere class-room exercises and add 'much pleasure and healthfulness to the study. Trips to the woods should be made in winter as well as during other seasons. It is in winter, when the trees are stripped of their foliage, that the forest best imparts its secrets.

Download or read book Forestry Quarterly Vol 1 written by New York State College of Forestry and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-19 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forestry Quarterly, Vol. 1: October, 1902 If the inhabitants of Germany should leave their country it would be all grown up with woods within a century. Since there would be nobody to use them, the soil would be enriched and the woods would not only increase in size, but in productive power. If, however, the people returned again and made just as large drafts as before for wood, litter and pasturage, the wood lands, even with the best forest management, would again not only be reduced in size, but also become less fertile. Forests form and thrive best where there are no people and hence no forestry, and those are perfectly justified who say Formerly we had no forestry science and enough wood now we have that science, but no wood. One could say with the same justice Those people are health ier who do not need a physician than those who do. But it would not follow that the physicians are to be blamed for the diseases. There would be no physicians if there were no diseases, and no forestry science without deficiency in wood supplies. This science is only a child of necessity or need, and need is therefore its natural concomitant hence the phrase should be: We have now a forestry science because we have a dearth of wood. Forestry, however, does not offer any nostrums and can do nothing against the course of nature. The celebrated physician Verdey said: The good physician lets people die; the poor one kills them. With the same right one can say the good for ester allows the most perfect forests to become less so the poor one spoils them. That is to say, just as the good physician can not hinder that men die because that is the course of nature, so the best forester cannot hinder that the forests, which came to us from past times, become less now they are being utilized.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Forestry: Or, the Elementary Principles Underlying the Science of Forestry; Being a Series of Primers of Forestry When from any cause a necessity exists in any country for the removal of its forests from extended areas, unless care be taken as to the manner in which such removal is made, and some parts are left wooded, irreparable injuries will inevitably follow. In the United States, where the enormous increase in population has resulted in the removal of the forests from extended areas, such intelligence and care have unfortunately, in most cases, not been exercised. The timber lands have generally been purchased at figures based almost entirely on the value of the standing wood. The trees have been cut down in a reckless manner, and fires, carelessly started, have often been left indifferently to burn themselves out. No attempts have been made to protect the soil that has been denuded of its natural protective covering by the axe or the fire.
