Highly developed means of transportation make it often more profitable to obtain certain products from a country which for Some reason is best able to pro duce them than to manufacture them at home, even though It is possible to do so.

This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forest Resources of Western Montana Changes in the economic importance of species and closer utilization with respect to tree size have both contributed to higher current estimates. Prior to World War II, timber utilization rested heavily on white pine and ponderosa pine. Other species were far less valuable. As a consequence, even the early estimates of white pine volume were very realistic and those of ponderosa pine were not much in error. In contrast, the inventory of other species was at best very rough. Today there are 61 billion board feet of Douglas-fir, western larch, Engelmann spruce, lodgepole pine, and the minor species. This amounts to more than twice the volume of these species reported earlier. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foreign Trade Study of the Forest Products Industries The forest resources of the world are largely an unknown quantity, the only available figures are given in total acres of forest lands. Such figures really convey little, if any, information as to the world supply of saw timber. While it is known that Russia, Africa, South and Central America contain vast forests, not even estimates in board feet measure have been made of the amount of saw timber available in these remote regions. The above 1928 figures are taken from the Forest Service survey. Other figures are from the Bureau of the Census.

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.

Estimates from earlier surveys were based largely on the compilation of public and private cruises, which varied greatly ln objectives and standards. Although Forest Survey made check cruises to adjust estimates to a common standard, the total result could not be statistically evaluated for reliability. Estimates presented in this report are based on greatly improved sampling procedures that reduce the risk of bias.

Download or read book The Forest Ranger written by Herbert Kaufman and published by Resources for the Future. This book was released on 1967 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the rare book that remains in print for nearly fifty years, earning wide acclaim as a classic. The Forest Ranger has been essential reading for generations of professionals and scholars in forestry, public administration, and organizational behavior who are interested in the administration of public lands and how the top managers of a large, dispersed organization with multiple objectives like the Forest Service shape the behavior of its field officers into a coherent, unified program. Published as a special reprint in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of the U.S. Forest Service, The Forest Ranger is as relevant and timely today as when it was first issued in 1960. In addition to the original text, this special reprint of The Forest Ranger includes two new forewords and an afterword that highlight how much we have learned from Herbert Kaufman. The first foreword, by Harold K. (Pete) Steen, former president of the Forest History Society, considers the book's impact on the forestry community and explains its continued relevance in light of changes in the culture and mission of today's Forest Service. The second, by Richard P. Nathan, codirector of the Rockefeller Institute of Government, considers the book's contribution to our understanding of administrative and organizational behavior. The new afterword by author Herbert Kaufman describes how his landmark study came into being and offers a candid assessment of how his theories about the agency's operations and its future have held up over time. In 1960, the Forest Service had a well-deserved reputation for excellence, and The Forest Ranger was a seminal analysis of the hows and whys of its success. Kaufmanalso warned, however, that an organization so unified and well adapted to its environment would have difficulties navigating social change. He was right in his concerns: the environmental, civil rights, and women's movements have all presented challenges to the character and purpose of the Forest Service, ultimately changing the organization in subtle and not-so-subtle ways. Now, as then, The Forest Ranger is a striking and prescient case study of how a complex organization operates and evolves over time.

Download or read book Forests and Trees Classic Reprint written by B. J. Hales and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests and Trees This book has been written to assist in impressing upon the young the value of our forests and to give them some appreciation of what is being done, as well as of what must yet be done, in order to preserve them. It is not a handbook on forestry, but contains interesting information which, it is hoped, will tend to create a healthy public opinion regarding the use and care of trees. While the book is really the expression of that appreciation of trees which comes only from long and intimate acquaintance, yet the literature on the subject has been freely used, and the author wishes to acknowledge the help received from the following: Sargent's "Manual of the Trees of North America"; Britton's "North American Trees"; Fernow's "Care of Trees"; Britton and Brown's Illustrated Flora of the Northern States and Canada; "Gray's New Manual of Botany" by Robinson and Fernald; Rydberg's "Flora of the Rocky Mountains and Adjacent Plains"; Coulter and Nelson's "Rocky Mountain Flora;" and Macoun's "Catalogue of Canadian Plants." Very particular mention should also be made of the many excellent publications of the Forestry Branch of the Department of the Interior; and special thanks are due to Mr. R. H. Campbell, Director of Forestry, for valuable suggestions and assistance, as well as for a very careful and suggestive reading of the proof sheets by the staff of the Forestry Branch.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Iufro/Mab Conference: Research on Multiple Use of Forest Resources; May 18-23, 1980, Flagstaff, Arizona We have, therefore, what might appear to some to be a paradoxical situation: in both the developed and developing countries, because of thc processes of development, and in spite of the growing demands for wood and wood products, there is a shrinking of the productive forest area. If this analysis is valid, some means must be found for providing the multiplicity of goods and services the forests are capable of yielding. In other words, there must be multiple use of the forest resources of the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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 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.
