14. Miscellaneous Circular 16, U. S. Dept. of Agriculture 
5. Success in tree planting, like success in everything else, depends 
upon the care given to it. Do not allow the roots of the trees to be- 
come dry. Protect the trees from fire, stock, and gophers. Cultivate 
all hardwoods. Officers of the Forest Service will do all in their 
power to assist by advice and suggestions, but it must be borne in 
mind that constant care and attention on the part of the planter are 
necessary to success in tree planting, especially in the dry, sandy soils 
of the Kinkaid district.
