APPLICATION 



FOE AN 



EXAMINATION OF FOREST LANDS 



TO THE 



MASSACHUSETTS STATE FORESTER, 



6 BEACON STREET, BOSTON. 



The State Forester stands ready at all times to promote the per- 

 petuation, extension and proper management of the forest lands of the 

 Commonwealth, both public and private (1904, chapter 409, section 2). 



If you have such lands and desire an examination of them and advice 

 as to their management, fill out the following blank form and send it 

 to the above address of State Forester. 



Upon receipt, this request will be placed on file, and you will be in- 

 formed, in order of application, approximately when the examination 

 can be made, and a mutual date can then be decided upon. 



The only expense the applicant promises to pay is that of travel and 

 subsistence of the State Forester or his assistants, incurred in making 

 the examination. 



It is always more satisfactory to personally meet on the property 

 the owner or party most interested, at least when the preliminary ex- 

 amination is made. In this way a definite understanding can be had 

 as to future undertakings, and whether working plans are necessary. 

 Often a preliminary visit to gain knowledge of the problem and give 

 advice on the grounds are all the services needed. 



When sending this application in, a brief description of the land 

 will assist us. 



With the above understanding, I desire to have an examination made 



of a tract of land of approximately acres, located 



in the town of county of State of 



Massachusetts.
