Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides an in-depth examination of the forestry practices in the state of Maine at the beginning of the 20th century. The author, then the state's Forest Commissioner, sought the aid of experts and explorers to conduct a study of the timber industry and produce an accurate count of the standing timber in the state. This study revealed not only the vast amounts of available timberâ"21.2 billion feet of spruce aloneâ"but also the need for proper forest management to ensure the continued viability of the industry. The author calls for careful cutting, re prevention and reforestation, and warns of the dangers posed by wasteful logging practices, destructive forest fires, and wind storms. The book highlights the vital importance of Maine's forests, and the need to balance their exploitation with their preservation for future generations. Its insights remain relevant today, underscoring the importance of responsible forestry practices and the conservation of our natural resources.
