PUBLICATIONS ON FOREST TREES 



STATE FOREST-TREE GUIDES 



Many States have published popular forest-tree guides, handbooks, 

 or pamphlets describing all or the more abundant native trees. Some 

 include the more common exotic or foreign trees. These guides are 

 very helpful in identifying trees. In the preparation of the text and 

 illustrations of many of them the Forest Service has been a cooperator. 

 The distribution is made wholly by the States, either free or at a 

 nominal cost. Recently a few States have been financially unable to 

 continue distribution, or at least to keep up stock at all times. The 

 names and addresses of the State agencies to whom requests should 

 be sent are indicated by asterisks (*) in the list printed below. Many
