Turning Prairies into Forests or Charee
Canada funds free tree planting for prairie settlers via the Dominion Forestry system begun in 1900. By 1907 two million trees reached fourteen hundred and twenty applicants, with 85 percent survival. The program selects hardy species, enforces care rules, and uses nurseries at Indian Head for rapid growth and windbreaks.
