The Testing Of Coniferous Tree Seeds At The School Of Forestry, Yale University, 1906-1926, James W. Toumey, Clark L. Stevens
The Testing Of Coniferous Tree Seeds At The School Of Forestry, Yale University, 1906-1926, James W. Toumey, Clark L. Stevens
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
Quality in forest tree seed centers in (a) origin; (b) genuineness; (c) purity; and (d) viability. The purchaser should insist on knowing the origin of the seed and the locality where it was collected.
Without seed testing establishments for investigating forest tree seeds by standardized methods under an established technique, nurserymen and foresters will continue to sow seed beds and undertake direct seeding without an adequate knowledge of the origin, genuineness, purity, and viability of the seeds used.
A Second Progress Report Of The Results Secured In Treating Pure White Pine Stands On Experimental Plots At Keene, New Hampshire, Ralph C. Hawley
A Second Progress Report Of The Results Secured In Treating Pure White Pine Stands On Experimental Plots At Keene, New Hampshire, Ralph C. Hawley
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
In October, 1905, nineteen permanent sample plots were established in the white pine type near Keene, New Hampshire, by the United States Forest Service in cooperation with the Faulkner and Colony Manufacturing Company on lands owned by the latter.! The plots were remeasured in 1909 and again in 1915 by representatives of the United States Forest Service. After the 1915 measurement the plots were turned over to the Yale School of Forestry. In 1920 the plots were remeasured for the third time, three additional plots were established and six of the original plots were discontinued. A fourth remeasurement was made …
Factors Controlling Germination And Early Survival In Oaks, Clarence F. Korstian
Factors Controlling Germination And Early Survival In Oaks, Clarence F. Korstian
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
There is little information available upon the seed and seedling characteristics of the American oaks. Among the fundamental problems in American silviculture, those which relate to seed efficiency are especially important. The future productiveness of the hardwood forests in which chestnut has been an important·element rests largely upon seed and sprout efficiency. Seed efficiency is governed by (I) seed production, (2) seed distribution, and (3) the factors affecting the reproductive value of the seed, such as viability, storage of seed in the litter of the forest floor, and destruction by insects and rodents.

Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten
Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten
Aspen Bibliography
Stockmen in the West have always had confidence in the adequacy of the native forage crop to provide pasturage for their livestock. Indeed, under normal climatic conditions this enormous natural resource has not failed the grazier, except where it has been called upon to meet unreasonable demands. The productivity of the range has declined sharply, however, wherever the requirements of plant growth have been disregarded for many years in succession. Where there has been too early or too frequent and to heavy grazing, undue trampling, or some other unsatisfactory feature of range use, the results have been uniformly bad. Many …
Factors Determining Natural Reproduction Of Longleaf Pine On Cut-Over Lands In Lasalle Parish, Louisiana, Herman H. Chapman
Factors Determining Natural Reproduction Of Longleaf Pine On Cut-Over Lands In Lasalle Parish, Louisiana, Herman H. Chapman
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The original ' pine forests, of the southern states covered from 125 to 130 million acres of land, about two-thirds of which was Longleaf pine. Four-fifths of this area had been cut over by 1920, leaving about 230 million acres, one-half of which is Longleaf pine. Of the cut-over lands, 31 million acres have not restocked. The Longleaf pine has thus been the principal tree crop on about 85 million acres of land, of which 11% million acres remained' in 1920, giving a cut-over area of nearly 73 million acres, or 114,062 square miles. This area is nearly half the …
Studies Of Connecticut Hardwoods: The Form Of Hardwoods And Volume Tables On A Form Quotient Basis, Ralph C. Hawley, Rogers G. Wheaton
Studies Of Connecticut Hardwoods: The Form Of Hardwoods And Volume Tables On A Form Quotient Basis, Ralph C. Hawley, Rogers G. Wheaton
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
SATISFACTORY volume tables for Connecticut Hardwoods have been . lacking. Considering the fact that the forestry movement within the state started a quarter of a century ago, this condition may seem strange. The scarcity of large bodies of timber, the diverse mixture of species in the average stand requiring several volume tables, and the fact that timber estimating as a business is of relatively lower importance here than in the more heavily timbered regions, account for the failure to develop volume tables. Foresters working within the region have been content to estimate timber by log unit methods or to adapt …

Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The purpose of this investigation is to study the effect of the forest on soil temperature at definite depths, expressed in terms of daily maximum and daily minimum. By forest is meant not only the trees but the surface vegetation and litter as well. Effort was made to preserve the vegetation and litter from being disturbed over the period covered by the investigation.
Distribution And Structure Of The Forests Of Eastern Nebraska, John M. Aikman
Distribution And Structure Of The Forests Of Eastern Nebraska, John M. Aikman
Papers from the University Studies series (University of Nebraska)
This paper is a study of the distribution and structure of the forests of extreme eastern Nebraska. The Missouri river, which forms the eastern boundary of the state, has so greatly modified the climate, that along its course an arm of the deciduous forest extends far into the grassland. Most of the trees and shrubs composing this forest are at the extreme western limit of their range. The range, grouping, and behavior of the several dominants and subdominants, under the environmental conditions imposed upon them, and the transition of forest to grassland are the subjects of this investigation. This region …
Boxwoods, Samuel J. Record, George A. Garratt
Boxwoods, Samuel J. Record, George A. Garratt
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
True boxwood, commonly called Turkish boxwood, is derived from a small group of plants, of which the common evergreen ·box of our gardens is the type. To this group the famous botanist Linnaeus gave the generic name of Buxis, the Latin for box tree. He called the best known member of it Buxis sempervirens, which is' but another form of Ovid's "buxus perpetuo virens," the evergreen box. For long this was considered the only species, though various forms and varieties came to be recognized, several of which have since been elevated by other botanists to specific rank.
Studies Of Connecticut Hardwoods: The Treatment Of Advance Growth Arising As A Result Of Thinnings And Shelterwood Cuttings, Louis J. Leffelman, Ralph C. Hawley
Studies Of Connecticut Hardwoods: The Treatment Of Advance Growth Arising As A Result Of Thinnings And Shelterwood Cuttings, Louis J. Leffelman, Ralph C. Hawley
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The typical hardwood stand with which the silviculturist in Connecticut has to deal is even-aged in form. The causes which operated in the past to create stands of this character are thoroughly understood and do not require consideration in this study. That even-aged stands, particularly when densely stocked and composed of comparatively intolerant species, require thinning to develop the most vigorous individuals and to obtain maximum production, is an accepted principle of silviculture.
The study separates logically into five parts:
1. A system of classification for the woody vegetation.
2. Amount, character, and distribution of the advance growth and of …

The Transportation Of Logs On Sleds, Alexander Michael Koroleff, Ralph C. Bryant
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
Heavy sleds, designed to transport timber from the forest to water courses down which it is floated or to haul it to mill or market, have been perfected chiefly in the United States and Canada. The importance of this method is indicated by the fact that it is used in transporting approximately 90 per cent of the annual log input of New England and New York, 80 per cent of that of the Lake States, and 100 per cent of that of Alaska and of Canada, exclusive of British Columbia.
The credit for the development of sled-hauling methods in the …

Hemlock: Its Place In The Silviculture Of The Southern New England Forest, Perry H. Merrill, Ralph C. Hawley
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
Eastern hemlock (Tsuga Canadensis) has been considered in the past of negligible value as a timber tree in comparison with its associates. This idea persists in spite of the fact that either virgin or second growth hemlock of merchantable size is readily salable for a variety of products.

Climate And Plant Growth In Certain Vegetative Associations, Arthur W. Sampson
Climate And Plant Growth In Certain Vegetative Associations, Arthur W. Sampson
Aspen Bibliography
The relation of climate to the growth and development of vegetation is of profound importance in both practical and experimental agriculture. It is extremely useful to know the cause of successful growth and establishment, or of partial success or failure, of various species in different plant associations and under widely contrasted climatic conditions. The climatic requirements of various plant types are largely responsible for the results obtained in the case of experimental seedings and plantings of most species. Once the adverse climatic factors are definitely known, failures with plants may be largely avoided by the judicious selection of sites or …

Further Studies In The Ecotone Between Prairie And Woodland, R. J. Pool, J. E. Weaver, F. C. Jean
Papers from the University Studies series (University of Nebraska)
A series of intensive investigations of the ecological features of the tension zone between prairie and woodland in the Mississippi valley was begun by Weaver and Thiel in 1915. These studies were continued for two seasons in Minnesota and were also extended to the prairies of eastern Nebraska in 1916. These investigations represent the first attempt to attack the prairie-forest problem on a comprehensive scale by means of the quantitative methods of modern ecology. Some of the results secured from these studies have been published as the first paper of a series planned to deal with critical investigations in the …
A Study Of The Vegetation Of Southeastern Washington And Adjacent Idaho, J. E. Weaver
A Study Of The Vegetation Of Southeastern Washington And Adjacent Idaho, J. E. Weaver
Papers from the University Studies series (University of Nebraska)
Noone at all botanically inclined can travel through southeastern Washington without being impressed with the marked changes which a distance of only a few miles may show in the vegetation. Traveling eastward from a point fifty miles west of the Idaho state line, one passes from a region of scab-land sagebrush through one of rolling hills covered with bunch-grasses. Upon steadily ascending the great Columbia Plateau, the 'bunchgrasses give way to well developed prairies, and these in turn, near the Idaho line, to forests of yellow pine, Douglas fir, white fir, tamarack, and cedar. Or starting from Spokane in the …

Aspen As A Permanent Forest Type, James M. Fetherolf
Aspen Bibliography
In an article on the "Stability of Aspen as a Type," published in the January, 1916, issue of the Proceedings of the Society, the author seems to infer that all aspen is temporary as a type, but refers to the prevalence of a different view in District 4 from that held by himself. In presenting this other view, I intend to bring out the more permanent features of aspen as a type. The importance of a clear understanding regarding this from the management and forestation standpoints is admittedly great. Any information that may be supplied or stimulus added to research …

In 1913 the Yale School of Forestry came into possession of certain parcels of land located near Keene, New Hampshire. This land amounting to 629.4 acres was presented to the School as a nucleus for a school forest to be used for purposes of instruction and research. Subsequently in March, 1915, additional lots comprising 270.9 acres were purchased with funds contributed by the original donor. The present area totals 900.3 acres and is know as the "Keene Forest."
