Vol. I. February, 1914 No. 1. 



To The Landowners Of North Dakota: 



In accordance with the action of the North Dakota Legislature of 

 1913 the North Dakota State School of Forestry is making every effort 

 to supply forest trees, seeds, cuttings, and seedlings for planting on the 

 prairies of our state. The quantity of material available for distribution 

 in 1 9 1 4 is, of course, not very great, but in 1915 we expect to have ready 

 at least one million trees. In this number of the State School of Forestry 

 quarterly, an effort has been made to answer questions as to how the 

 distribution of forest trees, seeds, seedlings and cuttings will be made. Any 

 further information desired will be gladly given. 



As provided in the law, the State Forester is available for lectures 

 before farmers' institutes, associations, and other organizations interested 

 in forestry. 



It is earnestly hoped that the landowners of our state will avail 

 themselves of the opportunity to secure trees, at practically no cost, for 

 extensive planting of tree plantations, windbreaks, and shelter-belts. 

 February 10, 1914. Very truly yours, 



Bottineau, N. D. State Forester of North Dakota.
