The Conifers Of The Northern Rockies Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Conifers of the Northern Rockies The purpose of this bulletin is to enable persons not technically trained in botany to identify the coniferous species of the northern Rocky Mountain region lying within the United States. Nothing is published at present, so far as can be ascertained, which presents with adequate illustrations and in nontechnical language descriptions of the trees of the northern Rocky Mountain region. That some such publication is desirable is indicated by the frequent inquiries for literature on this subject in definite, concise, and popular form. This need is felt by teachers of nature study in the public schools scattered throughout the northern 'rocky Mountain country, as well as by foresters, farmers, and others whose work or pleasure takes them out of doors. Acknowledgments are due to Prof. M. J. Elrod, of the University of Montana, for some of the photographs used herein, and to Mr. E. E. Hubert, of the Bureau of Plant Industry, who has made most of the drawings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Phenology of Common Forest Flora of the Northern Rockies, 1928 to 1937 The mix of forest uses, priorities, and management intensities is changing in the Northern Rockies. Lands are being managed for an increasingly wider range of resources, requiring a greater breadth and depth of knowledge about vegetation. As a result, the whole vegetation complex is assuming more importance, regardless of the resource values being featured in management. Not only is the management activity itself important, but in many cases, the timing of the activity is important. This is not something we recently discovered. R. H. Weidman, who was primarily responsible for this study, said in his usda Forest Service Northern Rocky Mountain Forest Experiment Station study plan of 1928' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
