Download or read book Experimental Tree Planting in the Plains Classic Reprint written by Charles A. Keffer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimental Tree Planting in the Plains The experimental plantings herein described in detail are given not only as a record Of the beginnings Of an important work, but as indi cating what are believed to be useful mixtures Of trees for planting in the West. Sufficient time has not elapsed, even in the Oldest plantings described, for final conclusions to be drawn; but the notes on kinds will be found of interest in connection with the experiments, and the whole is believed to afford a basis for selection Of trees for the various States included in the treeless area. While this bulletin has to do primarily with Western planting, it may be found a safe guide in many directions for forest planting within the timbered regions Of the country, especially as to general principles involved. Experiments in planting in cut-over lands in the pineries Of Minnesota and Pennsylvania have been begun by the Department, but are not yet sufficiently advanced to warrant even a progress report.

Download or read book Tree Planting in the Great Plains Region written by Fred Runk Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1923 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the treeless Great Plains, trees and shrubs are essential to the making of a real home. The first step in forest planting should be to provide a windbreak or shelter belt to afford protection from severe winds and furnish shade and comfort to both man and beast. To be effective, the shelter must be dense, utilizing poplars and other fast-growing species, and with good care, the trees will develop rapidly. Then a woodlot should be started for the production of fence posts and fuel. Thorough preparation of the soil, spring planting, and thorough cultivation of the soil after planting are the essential requisites for success.

Download or read book The Gnu s World written by Richard D. Estes and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2014-04-12 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first scholarly book on the antelope that dominates the savanna ecosystems of eastern and southern Africa. It presents a synthesis of research conducted over a span of fifty years, mainly on the wildebeest in the Ngorongoro and Serengeti ecosystems, where eighty percent of the world’s wildebeest population lives. Wildebeest and other grazing mammals drive the ecology and evolution of the savanna ecosystem. Richard D. Estes describes this process and also details the wildebeest’s life history, focusing on its social organization and unique reproductive system, which are adapted to the animal’s epic annual migrations. He also examines conservation issues that affect wildebeest, including range-wide population declines.
