OWSLEY History Officer Enclosure THE UNITED STATES FOREST SERVICE A HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY 1876-1972 COMPILED BY GERALD R. OGDEN PUBLISHED BY THE FOREST HISTORY SOCIETY, INC. 1973 SANTA CRUZ, CALIFORNIA ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THE COMPILER OF A LARGE BIBLIOGRAPHY PLACESHEAVY DEMANDS ON THE PERSONNEL OF LIBRARIES AND OTHER DEPOSITORIESWHICH HE MUST USE. I WISH TO EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE TO THEFOLLOWING PEOPLE WITHOUT WHOSE HELP THE PREPARATION ANDCOMPLETION OF THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE: MR. ELWOOD R. MAUNDER, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOROF THE FOREST HISTORY SOCIETY, OFFERED ME THE OPPORTUNITY TOWORK ON THIS PROJECT. WITHOUT HIS SUPPORT, AND THAT OF HIS STAFF, I COULD NOT HAVE PERFORMED THE EXTENSIVE TRAVEL ANDINDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION WHICH WAS NECESSARY TO AMASS THE RAW MATERIAL. MRS. ESTHER JOHNSON AND HER STAFF AT THELIBRARY OF THE SCHOOL OF FORESTRY AND CONSERVATION,UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, PROVIDED HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS ANDCONSTANT ATTENTION TO MY NEEDS, WHICH NOT ONLY LIGHTENED MY WORKBUT MADE THE CON- DUCTING OF RESEARCH IN BERKELEY A PLEASURABLEEXPERIENCE. MR. CLIFFORD OWSLEY, CHIEF, HISTORY SECTION,U.S. FOREST SERVICE, AND MR. FRANK HARMON AND MRS. BURRIEWILLIAMS, OF HIS STAFF, OPENED DOORS TO OTHERWISE INACCESSIBLEMATERIALS. MANY MEMBERS OF THE STAFF OF THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESSPERFORMED SIMILAR HELPFUL SERVICES. MR. JOHN SHERROD, DIRECTOR OF THENATIONAL AGRICULTURAL LIBRARY, AND STAFF, GRACIOUSLYPROVIDED WORK SPACE, ADVICE, AND ASSISTANCE FROM THEIR MANY RESOURCES. IN THE ELEVEN MONTHS THAT I WAS TRAVELING INTHE COMPILA- TION OF THIS WORK,I CAME INTO CONTACT WITH MANY FORESTSERVICE PERSONNEL. IN EVERY INSTANCE GREAT INTEREST WASEXPRESSED IN THE RESEARCH BEING CONDUCTED AND EVERY COURTESYAND ASSISTANCE WAS UNFAILINGLY EXTENDED TO ME. THIS HAS BEEN ESPECIALLY TRUE AT THE PACIFIC SOUTHWEST FOREST AND RANGEEXPERIMENT STATION IN BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA. MR. THEODOR B. YERKE, HEAD, PSW SCIENCE LITERATURE SERVICES, AND HIS STAFFHAVE MADE POSSIBLE THE PUBLICATION OF THE WORK IN ITS PRESENTFORM, UTILIZING THE COMPUTER PROGRAM, FAMULUS, AND COMPUTER-OUTPUT-MICROFORM. MAJOR PROGRAM CHANGES TO FAMULUS WERE MADE BY MR.JAMES CLARKE, COM- PUTER INFORMATION SPECIALIST, IN ORDER TOPRODUCE THE INDEX, WITHOUT WHICH THE VALUE OF THIS WORK WOULD HAVEBEEN VERY CON- SIDERABLY LESSENED. MRS. ROXIE DIAL DESERVES SPECIALTHANKS FOR HER ASSISTANCE IN LOCATING HARD-TO-FIND ITEMSIN LIBRARIES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. AND MR. VINCENT AITRO, REFERENCELIBRARIAN, HAS PROVIDED INVALUABLE HELP IN THE ORGANIZATIONOF THE INDEX. MY CO-WORKER ON THIS PROJECT HAS BEENMRS. CYNTHIA JACOBS. SHE IS AN EXTRAORDINARILY TALENTED AND DILIGENTCOMPUTER TECH- UNFLAGGING NICIAN. I CAN CONFIDENTLY SAY THAT WITHOUT HER COOPERATION WE COULD NOT HAVE PRODUCED ABIBLIOGRAPHY OF THIS SIZE, WITH AN INDEX, IN THE TIME ALLOTTEDFOR THE EFFORT. INTRODUCTION IN 1972 THE U.S. FOREST SERVICE INSTITUTED A HISTORY PROGRAM TO DOCUMENT AND PRESERVE THE RECORD OF A CENTURY OF FEDERAL FORESTRY. THE PROGRAM SUPPORTS PROJECTS WHICH DETAIL ASPECTS OF FOREST SERVICE HISTORY AND ENCOURAGES SCHOLARS TO STUDY FORESTRY HISTORY BY PROVIDING AIDS TO GUIDE RESEARCH. THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY HAS BEEN COMPILED AS ONE SUCH AID. THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF FEDERAL FORESTRY IN THE UNITED STATES IS SYNONYMOUS WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROFES- SIONAL FORESTRY IN THIS COUNTRY. ONE CANNOT STUDY ONE TO THE EXCLUSION OF THE OTHER. THE PRESENT WORK SEEKS TO REFLECT THE MULTI-FACETED ACTIVITIES OF THE FOREST SERVICE, WHILE LEAVING TO THE JUDGMENT OF THE USER THE APPLICATION TO THE BROADER FIELD OF FORESTRY HISTORY. WITHIN THE PERIOD OF ONE YEAR'S WORK IT HAS BEEN IMPOS- SIBLE TO BRING TOGETHER ALL THE LITERATURE PERTAINING TO FOREST SERVICE HISTORY. THE CONTENTS OF THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY ARE, THEREFORE, PRIMARILY LIMITED TO WORKS WHICH HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED AND ARE AVAILABLE TO RESEARCHERS IN MAJOR LENDING INSTITUTIONS. IN ADDITION SOME PROCESSED MATERIALS HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. IN EACH SUCH CASE AN ANNOTATION SHOWS ITS LOCATION. ANNOTATIONS ALSO SHOW THE LOCATIONSOF SCARCE ITEMS. IN A FEW INSTANCES, LIBRARY CALL NUMBERS ARE FURNISHED. ABBREVIATIONS ARE REDUCED TO A MINIMUM. WHERE THEY ARE USED THEY SHOULD NOT CAUSE CONFUSION, E.G. AGRIC., FOR., DEPT., ETC. TITLE ENTRIES ARE. RESTRICTED TO SHORT TITLES. LONGER TITLES ARE GIVEN WHEN NECESSARY TO CLARIFY AN ARTICLE AND THEREBY AVOID ANNOTATION. GIVEN NAMES ARE PROVIDED WHERE POSSIBLE IN AUTHOR AND TITLE ENTRIES. THE LITERATURE CITED IN THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY REVEALS MANY AUTHOR INCONSISTENCIES IN TERMINOLOGY. IT IS NOT UNCOMMON TO FIND REFERENCES TO "FOREST RESERVES" AT A TIME WHEN THEY HAD OFFICIALLY BECOME NATIONAL FORESTS. LIKEWISE, AUTHORS CALL NATIONAL FOREST REGIONS "DISTRICTS", WHICH THEY ONCE WERE. WILDERNESS AREAS ARE REFERRED TO AS "NATURAL AREAS", "WILD AREAS", "PRIMITIVE AREAS", ETC., WITH NO DISTINCTION. FOREST EXPERIMENT STATIONS SUFFER SIMILAR MISNOMERS. THESE CONFUSIONS ARE CORRECTED BY VARIOUS DEVICES IN THE INDEX, AS OUTLINED BELOW. THE NATIONAL FORESTS WERE OFFICIALLY KNOWN AS FOREST RE- SERVES PRIOR TO 1907. ALL CITATIONS REFERRING TO LITERATURE WRITTEN BEFORE1907ABOUT NATIONAL "FORESTS" ARE REFERRED TO IN THE INDEX UNDER "FOREST RESERVES". LITERATURE FROM 1907 IS INDEXED AS NATIONAL FORESTS, NO MATTER WHAT TERMS THE AUTHOR EMPLOYS. NATIONAL FOREST REGIONS AND NATIONAL FOREST DISTRICTS ARE INDEXED BY GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION; THUS REGION3(ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.) IS INDEXED UNDER NATIONAL FORESTS--SOUTHWEST. THE TERMS "WILD AREAS" AND "PRIMITIVEAREAS" ARE LISTED UNDER "WILDER- NESS AREAS" EXCEPT WHEN NAMESARE PROVIDED, AND THESE ARE NATIONAL FOREST NAME INDEXED. TO ASSIST THE USER IN TRACING CHANGES, A HISTORICAL LIST ISPROVIDED IN APPENDIX I. THE LITERATURE EXAMINED FORINCLUSION IN THIS BIBLIO- GRAPHY HAS REFLECTED AN INORDINATENUMBER OF REFERENCES TO. THE SUBJECTS OF FOREST POLICY,CONSERVATION OF NATURAL RE- SOURCES, FIRE CONTROL AND SUPPRESSION,FIRE INCIDENCE AND DAMAGE, AND RANGE MANAGEMENT. IN ADDITION ENTRIES HAVEBEEN EXTENSIVELY CROSS-INDEXED. IN SOME INSTANCES THIS HAS RE- SULTED IN A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OFENTRIES BEING PLACED UNDER A SINGLE INDEX HEADING. TO PARTIALLY ALLEVIATE THE NEEDFOR THE USER TO SEARCH MANY TITLES WHENRESEARCHING A PARTICULAR ERA IT WAS FOUND EXPEDIENT TOSUBDIVIDE THESE TOPICS CHRONO- LOGICALLY. IT IS TO BE NOTED THAT THE BREAKDOWNREFERS TO THE DECADE IN WHICH THE LITERATUREWAS PUBLISHED AND NOT THE ERA TO WHICH THE CONTEXT REFERS. FOR THE CIVILIAN CONSERVA- TION CORPS THE CHRONOLOGICAL SUBDIVISIONWAS UNSUITABLE SINCE IT EXISTED FOR LESS THAN A DECADE. FAMULUS, THE PROGRAM UTILIZED IN THISCOMPILATION, WAS NOT ORIGINALLY DESIGNED TO ACCOMMODATETHIS FORM OF BIBLIO- GRAPHY. CONSEQUENTLY, REPROGRAMMING WASNECESSARY. THOUGH CONSIDERABLE TIME AND EFFORT WERE EXPENDEDIN THIS DIRECTION, NOT ALL THE DESIRED CHANGES COULD BEINCORPORATED. THIS HAS RESULTED IN A SLIGHT DEVIATION IN ALPHABETIZING,AFFECTING BOTH THE MAIN ENTRIES AND THE INDEXHEADINGS. A CURSORY EXAMINATION BY THE USER WILL RAPIDLY DISTINGUISHTHESE CHANGES. OTHER LIMITATIONS CAUSED REPETITIOUS INDEXHEADINGS. ITEMS IN THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY REPRESENTAN EXAMINATION OF MAJOR LITERATURE INDEXES, PARTICULARLYREADER'S GUIDE TO PERIODICAL LITERATURE AND THE AGRICULTURALINDEX, BIBLIOGRA- PHIES SUCH AS EDWARD N. MUNN'S, A SELECTEDBIBLIOGRAPHY OF NORTH AMERICAN FORESTRY, AND CARDCATALOGS IN THE LIBRARIES OF THE FOREST HISTORY SOCIETY, THEFORESTRY LIBRARY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, THELIBRARY OF CONGRESS AND THE NATIONAL AGRICULTURAL LIBRARY.

  • BNL Column March 07 I Just Turned 61 at the End of February
    BNL column March 07 I just turned 61 at the end of February, and find myself reflecting on getting older and “taking stock”. I count myself lucky to have a career in music. The chance both to perform, in many places, with many fine musicians, and to teach people how to play music keeps my life interesting and fulfilling. Some of the best advice I ever give is a direction I took myself when I suggested to Tim OʼBrien that we start a band. The advice I give to any up-and-coming banjo player is: “Get with the best lead singer you possibly can, and learn to work together.” This month, Tim turns 53. At that time, he was 23 and I was 31. Iʼd say it worked out well for both of us. The “get with the best lead singer you can” principle came clear when I realized that almost all the banjo players Iʼd heard of had come to my attention as part of a bluegrass band: Flatt & Scruggs, Reno & Smiley, the Stanley Bros., the Osborne Bros., the Country Gentlemen, Jimmy Martin, Jim & Jesse, etc. In each case, the lead singer in the band was a big part of the reason the banjo player could have a career and be heard. The banjo player might contribute original material, help arrange the bandʼs music, be part of the harmony singing, and often as not, also be part of the “business machine” that helped the band stay in business. This is exactly what I undertook in starting Hot Rize, 30 years ago this year.

  • Private Property to Public Property: the Beginnings of the National Forests in the South
    PRIVATE PROPERTY TO PUBLIC PROPERTY: THE BEGINNINGS OF THE NATIONAL FORESTS IN THE SOUTH Gerald W. Williams, Ph.D. National Historian USDA Forest Service Washington, D.C. March 29, 2003 The federal government has been actively involved with forests in the South since 1799 with the establishment of several live oak reservations for naval purposes. However, large land allocations for national forests would have to wait for 120 years. The national forest system began on March 3, 1891, with passage of a bill–referred to as the Creative Act by the Forest Service–that was designed to eliminate problems with previous homestead laws (26 Stat. 1095). Attached to the bill was a one sentence amendment that allowed the president to proclaim forest reserves (later called national forests) from the timber covered public domain. The only problem was that the public domain (unclaimed public land) was almost all in the West. Within days of the passage of the act, President Harrison had proclaimed forest reserves on some 15 million acres of land. By the end of President Cleveland’s second term, a total of 40 million acres of forest reserves had been proclaimed, some very controversial. President McKinley was faced with a huge problem of trying to overcome opposition to the new reserves and still fund the daily operations of the government, since abolishment of the reserves was tied to the annual sundry appropriations bill. Finally, the Congress passed and the president signed a bill know known as the Organic Act of 1897. However, as the forest reserves in the West grew in leaps and bounds, there was no federal protection for timber areas in the East.
