Excerpt from Report of the State Board of Forestry: For 1906 and 1907 The Maryland State Board of Forestry was created by the Legislature of 1906 under an act, ' To establish a State Board of Forestry, and to promote forest interests and arboriculture in the State. The board was organized in May, 1906, and has since been actively engaged in promoting an interest in forestry, and in ascertaining the forest condi tions and needs of the State. The first forest work under State initiative was done in 1900 by the Maryland Geological Survey in cooperation with the United States Forestry Bureau, when a study of the forest conditions in Allegany County was made, and a report published. This was in the nature of an economic survey, to ascertain the relation which the forests bear to other natural resources of the State, their value, and means of im provement. The study of Allegany County was followed by similar work in Cecil, Calvert, Garrett and St. Mary's Counties, the results of which have already been published; investigations were also taken up in Worcester, Kent and Harford Counties, a map of the first county showing the forest growth by commercial types, having been issued. These reports supplied accurate information on the forest conditions and needs of the counties, and furnished an intelligent basis for gen eral legislation. As a result of these forest studies it became apparent that the importance of the work and its special needs required a sepa rate State department to properly handle it. This led to the introduc tion of the Forestry Bill in the last Legislature, and its prompt enact ment into law. Since July, 1906, all of the State forest work has been conducted by the State Board of Forestry, through a State Forester, who is directly responsible to the Board for his official acts. The main lines of activity of the Board of Forestry are briefly set forth under the following headings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Ninth Annual Report of the State Board of Forestry: 1909 The problems presented to the board are many and complex. Great progress has been made during the past few years in mould ing public sentiment, and educating the people to the forestry movement. The public schools are now giving some time to the teaching of forestry, whereas formerly such instruction was merely incidental. The press has ever been active and willing to carry on this campaign of education. The high price of lumber and the changed climatic conditions are calling attention to the rapid disappearance of the forests and the early necessity of reforesting. The numerous inquiries received by the board is sufficient evidence that the people are aroused to the need of immediate forestry work.
