Rural and City Shade Tree Improvement. 15 



When the giving of advisory help involves personal visits of Forest 

 experts from the College, it will be necessary that the traveling 

 expenses and sustenance be borne by the agency requesting the help. 

 Xo charge, however, will be made for the service of the experts as 

 it is felt that it is the function of a State Institution to give such 

 service to the people of the State. That is, the College will send 

 one of its Foresters to any community in the State for the making 

 of suggestive plans or the giving of verbal advice for the traveling 

 expenses and sustenance of this . expert. In the making of plans 

 for the management of forest lands providing the tract is more than 

 300 acres in extent and that the owner gives assurances of carrying 

 out the plans made, Foresters will be sent out to prepare written 

 plans at no expense to the owner. The College does not assume to 

 do all of the work needed throughout the State but it will be ready 

 to give service to all in so far as the facilities at the command of the 

 College will allow. 



The College has an unusual body of trained men and is thoroughly 

 equipped to give illustrated lectures on rural and city shade tree 

 improvement and to make plans for the development of areas by the 

 planting of shade trees. The College invites correspondence relative 

 to any phase of applied Forestry or the giving of illustrated lectures 

 before Civic Associations, High Schools, Men's and Women's Clubs, 

 Granges and other organizations.
