Sinopsis
Excerpt from On the Forestry Conditions: Northern Wisconsin
Ever since assuming charge of the Division the writer has contended that the primary requisite for Government activity on behalf of for estry was a tolerably accurate knowledge of the forest conditions and forestry interests of the country but he was met with the objection that it would be improper policy to do for one State what every other State might with equal right demand to have done for it, and at the same time the means placed at his disposal were never sufficient to permit him to acquire this information with any satisfactory degree of accuracy for the whole country at once.

Excerpt from On the Forestry Conditions: Northern Wisconsin
In 1897 the legislature of Wisconsin passed an act for the appointment of a State Forestry Commission, charged, among other duties, with that of formulating desirable forestry legislation for the State. The Commission consists of Hon. G. B. Burrows, Madison; Ernst Brucken, Milwaukee; and H. D. Putnam, Eau Claire. This Commission consulted with Dr. B. E. Fernow. Chief of the Division of Forestry, United States Department of Agriculture, who advised that a careful reconnaissance be made of the present condition of the forests of the State. The Department of Agriculture offered to send an expert to make such examination, provided the expenses of the trip could be defrayed by the State. Since the Forestry Commission had no appropriation for this purpose, application was made to the Geological and Natural History Survey for an appropriation of money sufficient to defray the expenses of the proposed investigation, and the Survey gladly acceded to the request. Pursuant to this action the Department of Agriculture appointed Mr. Filibert Roth as special agent to make the reconnaissance desired, under the general direction of Dr. Fernow, Chief of Division of Forestry. Mr. Roth spent three months in the field and prepared the accompanying report. The report was first submitted to the Department of Agriculture at Washington, by which it has been published as a bulletin, and a copy was transmitted to the Director of the Geological Survey, with the accompanying letter from the Secretary of Agriculture.
