A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This Bulletin consists ofo E-prints and reprints of articles by the author, which have appeared in theN atal Agricultural Journal, edited only to the extent of avoiding repetitions, but supplemented by such additional chapters or particulars as appeared necessary to make it a fairly complete treatise on the subject in hand. Tree planting for the purposes of timber-production, shelter, and ornament have been dealt with here, but the planting and culture oi fruit trees have been omitted, as being sufficiently distinct fo require separate treatment. The great variation of climate and altitude found within Natal produces naturally several zones of vegetation in the indigenous treeflora, and necessitates the separation of exotics into corresponding zones, limited in accordance with the elasticity of nature of each species used. Consequently, although the chapters on methods of culture apply in principle to all parts of the Colony, and, indeed, to all parts of South A frica, it has been found necessary in the treatment of species to divide the Colony into three belts corresponding to vegetation zones. These belts are nowhere definitely delimited; they overlap more or less wherever they meet, but in a general way are sufficiently distinct to act as guides to intending tree planters. Experience inC ape Colony, as well as observation in other parts of South Africa and abroad, have been largely utilised in the preparation of this Bulletin, although Natal experience, founded on the observation of success or failure achieved by farmers and others who started tree planting many years ago before this Department came into existence, has been accepted as the ruling index wherever such exists.
