Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Forest Planting: In New Jersey
The Forest Commission lays little stress upon forest planting because the State's woodland area is now as great as it should be, and because it is easier, cheaper, and, for the present, better to make good forests out of the abused and neglected natural forests. TO do this requires, in most cases, no outlay; simply protection against fire and proper thinnings at the proper time are enough. The result will rarely be as good, silviculturally, as from a planted forest, but the crop will come quicker and it will cost less.
