DOWNLOAD EBOOKBalsam Fir was first published in 1965. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Professors Bakuzis and Hansen, with the assistance of a number of co-authors of individual chapters, present an exhaustive survey of the literature on the balsam fir, providing a coherent picture of the species and its place in nature and forestry practice. The balsam fir is used extensively in the pulp and paper industry, and it is known to millions as a traditional Christmas tree. In North America it is a major tree species in Canada, in the northeastern United States, and in the Great Lakes region. In the search of the literature, over 2000 sources were consulted and considerably more than half of them are cited in the book. The references, organized in an ecological framework, cover the period from the seventeenth century to the present. The authors have reviewed and integrated these data in a unified, but multipurposed, book. In the integration of the source material the authors also made contributions of their own. The book contains the following chapters: Botanical Foundations, Geography and Synecology, Ecological Factors, Microbiology, Entomology, Reproduction, Stand Development, Growth and Yield, and Utilization. Appendixes list fungi and myxomycetes and insects associated with balsam fir. There are 30 illustrations, including a frontispiece drawing by the noted nature artist Francis Lee Jaques. The book will appeal to a wide range of readers specifically concerned with forestry, including research workers, educators, entomologists, pathologists, and managing foresters, as well as conservationists and wildlife biologist in general.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Direct Seeding and Planting of Balsam Fir in Northern Wisconsin Because of the aggressiveness of balsam fir in natural seeding in sites occupied by aspen, paper birch, and brush, artificial direct seeding would seem to have some promise. For many years, direct seeding in the field has held the interest of foresters not only in the Lake States, but also in other regions. To date, the results in the Lake States have not been encouraging. There have been many more failures than successes. However, because of the short cut that direct seeding offers, eliminating the time and expense of raising and planting seedlings, it is an attractive field for re search. To date, very little research has been done in the Lake States on seed ing and planting of balsam fir; however, a number of field trials have been made in northern Wisconsin. The results of these trials are pre sented in this paper. Each test is dealt with separately because they were conducted under varying conditions and direct comparison or summa tion of data is not possible. The Summary. However, draws the results together and presents overall conclusions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
