Reports. 
June 30, 1897, result of count: 2,466 Artemisia, 182 Larch, 75 
Walnut; or 68 per cent. 
October 12, 1897, result of count: 2,850 Artemisia, 23 Larch, 70 
Walnut; or 73 per cent of number planted. 
From the action of Artemisia in other places it is probable that its 
rapid growth will prevent its use as a nurse tree; should the conifers 
become established, however, they should be able to overcome the 
Artemisia, which is a tall-growing shrub, thus saving the cost of any 
thinning whatever. Among the conifers it will be noticed that the 
light-demanding kinds, Larch and Pine (and the Oaks also), are each 
surrounded by the shade-enduring Spruces. 
PLAT 7.—3 by 3 feet, 4,840 trees.
