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.
