Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests and Forestry in the American States: A Reference Anthology Forestry as a matter of public policy is scarcely over 80 years old in America. As a profession, it is barely over 65. As a definitive science it is about 50. Forestry came to the United States in several distinct stages. Born as an idea in the minds of a few men and women, it sprang into adolescence as a political movement in the last decades of the nineteenth century. It matured as it grew into a profession Shortly after the beginning of the twentieth. It is now, as a science, just entering its prime, its finest years still ahead. American forestry grew up pragmatically in the same way that its parent, the American political system, flourished. An idea was tried. If it worked, it was retained. If it did not, it was cast aside. This trial and error approach to national policy is uniquely possible in the United States because of the country's political structure. Because the states of the Union have retained large areas of sovereignty to themselves, the American nation is much like a network of great laboratories with a wide range of social, economic, and political experiments going on all the time. In no field has this trying and testing been more appropriate than in the field of forestry. Woodland conditions vary so radically from one part of the continent to an other that a national plan for forestry, even if it had been politically possible, would probably have been impossible technically during the infant years of the science. Instead the diversity of political and physical conditions in the states led to a healthier, more flexible, and more appropriate set of American forest policies than any centralized approach could have produced.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forest Policy No-where more than in the United States is all public policy meant to be dictated by the people. For the benefit of the people and for the benefit of American forestry, a handbook might come in good stead giving the principles and the effects of a truly American forest policy. The present treatise, the contents of which are tabulated on pages 8, 9 and 10, does not pretend to fill the place of a comprehensive handbook: It is intended, primarily, for the use of the students attending the Biltmore Forest School; it forms the last part of an encyclopedic textbook of forestry (comprising silviculture, utilization, finance, mensuration and working plans) written by the author since 1898 on behalf of the Biltmore Forest Sch-001.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from United States Department of the Interior-Forest Conservation Earliest conception of the Government's custodianship of the public domain was that such lands should be converted into cash for defray ing governmental expenses and for extinguishing the public dept. Dis posing of public domain was regarded as a real estate business, a viewpoint that continued until the present century. As a result of a sense of obligation to those who served in the armies during wartime, the public lands were regarded as suitable rewards for veterans: in deed, gifts of lands had been held out as inducements for enlistment into the army. Thus the early policy was dominated by the idea that the new public domain should be disposed of as a source of rev enue and as a substitute for cash to reward soldiers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A General Introduction to Forestry in the United States: With Special Reference to Recent Forest Conservation Policies The American people have enjoyed the use and benefit of sufficient primary natural resources to develop this nation to a position of great strength and prosperity. If our people will learn how to use, manage, and maintain them for the widest present and permanent benefits and to apply this knowledge gained by experience through the coming years, it is likely that our natural resources may continue to contribute in very substantial fashion to further strength, prosperity, and happiness. Our forests, next to our soils, are our most precious natural resource. Around this vast resource, occupying approximately one-fourth of our total land surface, is built a new concept of national planning. The work to be accomplished is conservation, management, and enhanced use, and this is a challenge not for the next few years but for many generations to come. Our rich and varied forests are capable of supplying our domestic requirements and a very extensive and profitable export trade that should inure to the benefit and prosperity of our people. It is of great importance that due consideration be given to the conservation of our forest resources. This work is intimately integrated with other primary resources, chiefly soil, water, and mineral. It is significant that, within the past few years, a new appreciation and understanding of the contributions which our natural resources may make to the prosperity of the nation have developed. Through recent government emergency measures, conservation has enjoyed most noteworthy forward progress. It is hoped that this general treatise on the subject of forestry may contribute to a better understanding and appreciation of the part our forests may play in the welfare and happiness of the American nation.

This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests and Forestry in the United States The present forest area of the United States is estimated at acres, or something more than square miles.1 This is a little more than one-half the original forest area of the country. The stand of timber is estimated roughly at 746 billion cubic feet, of which 48 5 billion cubic feet is saw timber and 261 billion cubic feet cordwood. Almost three-fourths of the saw timber is in the remaining virgin forests. These remaining virgin forests are chiefly found in two widely separated regions, the South and far West, from which the United States is now drawing the bulk of its lumber cut. Together, they have 85 per cent of the total area still occupied by virgin growth, and 95 per cent of the re maining stand of virgin timber. The area of virgin growth in the far West is twice that in the South, with a stand in the ratio of 3% to 1. But the lumber cut of the South, as compared with that of the far West, is in the ratio of 7 to 6. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In comparison with these the damage which is inflicted on them by illegal timber cutting is insignificant. Timber can only be cut profitably when the operation is conducted on a comparatively large scale; and large operations require roads and sawmills, and con sequently the use of capital, and are usually easy to detect and arrest. The cutting of timber on the unreserved public lands under cover of bad laws or without a pretense of legal sanction causes, as we shall Show later, serious losses to the Government, but so far as we have been able to observe it does not now seriously menace many of the reserves.
