A Resume of Forest Nursery Progress

Homer asked me to give a resume of progress in nursery practices and suggested I pattern my talk after one I gave on tree planting last February. At that time, I pointed out that it might be said we knew little more about tree planting now than we did fifty years ago because the same questions are being asked. In recalling my experience and in review of files back as far as 1910, I find people were asking which age class of stock is best; is fall planting better than spring planting; what is a cull tree; what planting tools or planting methods are best; and many other questions about tree planting that were common then and are common now.
