Forester’s vision for Germany style forests in America
The article argues for commercial forestry using German and French methods. It cites Prussia’s vast, well-timed thinning and fire protection, outlines seeding and thinning cycles, and urges mixed selective planting with emphasis on white oak and other oaks. It notes current US planted area around 1.1 million acres and potential expansion to over 56 million acres.
