Book excerpt: Excerpt from National Afforestation The pressing need of afforestation and the lifelong interest that I have taken in the subject have caused me to record my experience and observations. The Scottish laird's advice to his son, "Be aye stikin' in a tree, Jock; it'll be growin' when ye're sleeping'," was never more appropriate than at the present time, when the axe of the woodman should give place to the spade of the planter. The cultivation of timber where formerly heath and gorse abounded is equally laudable with the making of two blades of grass grow where only one grew before.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Afforestation: The Unemployed and the Land The cause of this downward movement is self-evident. It is the desertion, the abandonment of the land. Each crop requiring humam labour has had its area reduced, and agricultural labourers have been sent away to reinforce the ranks of the unemployed in our cities and towns, so that far from being over populated, the fields of Britain are starved of human labour. As James Laird, used to say, The British nation does not work on her soil, she is prevented from doing so, and the Would-be economists complain that the soil Will not nourish its inhabitants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Practice of Forestry: Concerning Also the Financial Aspect of Afforestation In the following pages I have endevoured to write such a treatise on Forestry as will be found of universal use to Landowners, Land Agents, and all Students of the science of Forestry. It is very necessary to realise that a complete knowledge of the correct practice of Forestry can only be obtained by approaching the subject from a scientific attitude. There are many able foresters whose only school has been that of the lonely woodlands, but their ability is, nevertheless, the result of an unconscious scientific study. There is, however, a species of humanity - a class of self-styled experts - who advertise as being practical authorities on Forestry matters, and who boast that they eschew all that is scientific, but whose only passport is, in reality, that of garrulous ignorance, and an overweening confidence in their own inability. I cannot too strongly warn my readers against attaching any importance to the remarks or advice of such men as these. Now, whereas in the cultivation of field crops, a considerable degree of proficiency may be acquired in an empiric manner, by merely watching the results of ones own practice, and without availing oneself of the lessons learnt by others, yet, in the case of Forestry, such would be impossible, for the life of mankind is far too short to admit of acquiring a complete knowledge of Forestry without studying the results of the actions of others, both of the present and past generations, and endeavouring to draw correct conclusions from observations so made.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests Woods and Trees: In Relation to Hygiene The subject matter of this book was briefly dealt with by me in three Chadwick Public Lectures, which were delivered at the Royal Society of Arts, London, in May 1917, under the title of "Forests, Woods, and Trees in relation to Hygiene." An effort is made in this book to interest the statesman, the student of economics, the engineer, the physician, and the layman, as well as the forester, in certain aspects of forests and trees, about which vague notions are prevalent. An endeavour is made in the first two chapters to recognise and describe the far-reaching influences of forests and trees on climate, flow of water, erosion of the soil, shelter from wind, purity of air and water, etc. Such influences affect directly the health and comfort of man. The value of forest districts as sites for sanatoria and the history and utility of parks, open spaces, and trees in towns are then discussed. The afforestation of the desolate pit mounds in the Black Country and other districts is shown to be a movement of great interest, especially when, as in some cases, it is taken up by school children. One effect of the war has been to bring home to thinking people the extreme importance of afforestation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In the concluding chapter by way of contrast; I have given a short account of the esthetic effects of the artificial forests of Europe. The system which shaped these forests and gave them their present appearance should; however, possess more than a comparative interest for Americans. It has, in fact, a further connection though a slight one, with the subject, and therefore requires a few words of explanation. It is well known that in many parts of Europe the forests have long been subjected to a systematic treatment known as forestry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Forest on the Hill Her immense slopes and sudden descents added sub limity to Yarner. There lay, indeed, within her frontiers many a level acre, where the trees stood shoulder to shoulder, branch locked in branch; but abrupt declivi ties scattered the forest regions and broke up their order, so that through the boughs of a great oak one might perceive the crown of his neighbour; or, in precipitous places, the feet of some poised tree twining silver roots vainly upon air above the head of another more safely anchored below. At this season, in the lustrous, untino tured splendour of still mornings, the plan of the forest was spread in light upon the shining hills, and, seen against the sunshine, every tree and harmonious em brace of trees, every leaf - strewn glade, every heathery clearing, every pinnacle and arch and column, ﬂashed nakedly. Here were they outlined with ﬂame, where stood parent trunk and main edifice of limb; here they were scrawled and splashed in with nought but quiver ing fire to the limits of the lesser branches and feathery twigs, as they leapt in a radiant network against the blue. The forest roofs thus caught pure splendour of sun light and irradiated a white, aerial glitter that dazzled the eyes and made them content to seek the more genial, more gentle glow of earth.
