Download or read book First Book of Forestry Classic Reprint written by Filibert Roth and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Book of Forestry During the last twenty years the general interest in forestry has grown with remarkable rapidity in all parts of our country. The federal government has set aside large forest reserves, and several states have established reservations or parks. The private owners of large tracts of forest lands are employing trained foresters to care for their property, and an improvement in the smaller holdings is everywhere noticeable. Forestry is taught in two special schools in America, and elementary courses on the subject are given in several colleges and preparatory schools. A desire has been expressed to introduce this useful and interesting study into our public schools and country homes, and this volume is an attempt to provide a book on the subject which shall satisfy this demand. In keeping with this purpose there has been no attempt to write a textbook or manual of forestry; but an effort has been made to present in simple, non-technical language some of the general principles underlying the science, and to state the methods which are employed and the objects to be attained in the practice of forestry. Early association with the well-kept forests of Germany, observations made in the widely differing forest districts of our own country, and three years' experience in teaching forestry have helped to make the responsible task of preparing this book a pleasure.

Download or read book What Is Forestry Classic Reprint written by B. E. Fernow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-24 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Is Forestry? Sir: The unusual interest shown in the subject-matter contained in the following pages, when presented in the form of public addresses delivered by me as your representative before various bodies (notably before the State Boards of Agriculture of Kansas and Nebraska and the Chamber of Commerce of Rochester, New York), makes it appear desirable to publish the same for a larger audience. At first sight it may be thought incongruous to present under one cover the two aspects of forestry, the reader from the treeless plains being seemingly not interested in the treatment of the forest cover in wooded country, and vice versa. But while on general principles it is desirable that all citizens should understand the forestry problem as it presents itself in the different parts of the country, the knowledge which is gained in the natural for est is an aid in forest-planting, and the principles which underlie forest planting are also to some extent of influence in forest management. Hence both aspects are best presented together. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer of Forestry, Vol. 1: The Forest Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith the manuscript of the first half of "A Primer of Forestry," and to recommend its publication as Bulletin No. 24, Part I, of this Division. The present part ("The Forest") deals with the units which compose the forest, with its character as an organic whole, and with its enemies. It may be said to sketch the foundation of the practice of forestry and of forest policy. Part II will be entitled "Practical Forestry," and will deal with the practice of forestry, with work in the woods, with the relations of the forest to the weather and the streams, and will conclude with a brief description of forestry at home and abroad. For many of the illustrations of Part I, I am indebted to the kindness of several gentlemen not connected with this Division.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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 The Practice of Forestry Classic Reprint written by Christopher Young Michie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 346 pages. 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.

Download or read book The Study of Forestry Classic Reprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.
