Excerpt from A Primer of Forestry
U. S. Department OF agriculture, bureau OF forestry, Wfashingtmz, D. A, May sir: Nearly four years ago the Department issued as Bulletin No. 24, Division of Forestry, a publication entitled A Primer of Forestry. The demand for this bulletin has been large and continuous, and not withstanding thefact that two editions, aggregating copies, have been issued, the supply is now exhausted. Owing to the expensive character of this bulletin in its original form, I have thought it advis able to recommend its republication in the popular and more econom ical Farmers' Bulletin series. With this end in View, I have slightly revised the text, and a large number of the illustrations have been engraved in order to adapt them for use as text figures. It is believed that in its new form the bulletin will be even more useful than hereto fore because of the possibility of giving it a very much wider distribution. Gifford pinohot, Forester. Hon. James wilson.
