Department of Forestry, 

 Harrisburg, Pa., February 2, 1902. 



The frequent demands made upon this oflSce for information as 

 ^ to the best methods of propagating forest trees induced me to re- 



quest Mr. Wirt, our State Forester, to prepare this bulletin upon 



the subject. I believe it will be timely and useful. 



J. T. ROTHROCK, 

 Commissioner of Forestry.
