Behavior Of Pesticides In Plants, Logan A. Norris

United States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

A number of chemicals of diverse characteristics have arbitrarily been classed together on the basis of their use and given the descriptive name "pesticides. " An unfortunate aura of mystery has developed about these chemicals. However, there is nothing unique or mysterious about the chemicals we refer to as "pesticides." Like other chemicals, they have properties which can be accurately measured; they obey all the laws of physics, chemistry, and biology.

Forestry Bulletin No. 16: Silviculture Of Slash Pine, Laurence C. Walker, Harry V. Wiant Jr.

South Dakota Bird Notes, Keith E. Evans, Roger R. Kerbs

United States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

Approximately 90,000 small stock ponds are scattered throughout South Dakota. The majority of these ponds are less than 10 acres in size, and depend entirely on surface runoff for their water supply. Although their primary purpose is to provide drinking water for livestock, many species of waterfowl and shorebirds use the pond areas for resting and feeding during spring and fall migrations, and for nesting habitat throughout the summer.

Neither the amount of use nor the potential for use by birds on stock ponds in South Dakota is known. Preliminary data presented here are results of waterfowl observations on 13 …

"Mr. L.R. Grosenbaugh (1952) introduced point-sampling to American foresters, citing Mr. W. Bitterlich's earlier work in Europe. Primarily it is, he said, 'A rapid method of sampling tree basal area per acre . . . '"

Ornamental Trees For The Farm Garden, P Luff

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE need for trees in the farm garden is being realized by many people.

Trees around the homestead are required to give such features as shade, colour, fragrance and many other advantages to generally make an area more livable.

Besides these advantages, trees appear to help smaller plants flourish by increasing the humidity and providing various degrees of shade and sunlight.

Forestry Bulletin No. 9: Silviculture Of Shortleaf Pine, Laurence C. Walker, Harry V. Wiant Jr

Forestry Bulletins No. 1-25, 1957-1972

"Nowhere is silviculture more intensively practiced than in the southern United States exempt, perhaps, in certain European nations. This is because of the tremendous demands upon the forests for fiber in a region of optimum climatic characteristics for rapid growth of valuable species. In meeting these demands, management instructs its foresters to shift their efforts into high gear."

Trees And Shrubs Of Kings Canyon National Park, Kenneth M. Stocking

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

In 1935 I first visited the Kings Canyon area. Since then I have spent many hours wandering through the woods and over the mountains in the area around the old General Grant National Park and the country which is now included in the Kings Canyon National Park. To my knowledge, no complete flora has been made for this vicinity. I consider the following pages to be the beginning of a fascinating work. It is the beginning because this paper includes only plants with woody stems.
