Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forest Tree Improvement Research in the Lake States In June 1957 the Lake States Forest Tree Improvement Committee directed its Research, Evaluation, Coordination, and Planning (recap) Subcommittee to assemble project summaries for the agencies doing forest tree improvement research in Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. These summaries were to be coordinated with a national sur vey proposed by the Forest Genetics Research Foundation, if the latter were followed up. Later the Foundation decided to confine its report to the West; in November 1958 the report appeared as Forest Genetics Research in the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Coast States and British Columbia. The recap Subcommittee (r. A. Brink, University of Wisconsin; H. L. Mitchell, Forest Products Laboratory; Scott S. Pauley, University of Minnesota; Paul O. Rudolf, Lake States Forest Experiment Station; and Stephen H. Spurr, University of Michigan) directed its chairman to assemble, process, and distribute the report. In the interests of uniformity, it was decided to use the pattern of the Western report. The Lake States report describes 113 research projects being conducted by 11 research agencies. It is believed that this survey gives a reasonably good account of present forest tree improvement research in the Lake States. By showing where we are, it may also help to chart the way we should go. The report is pre sented for the consideration of those conducting or supporting forest tree improve ment research and of others interested in the research that is developing in the Lake States.
