Trees and their Care | Nature

ABSTRACT IN the July–September issue of _Trees_, the journal of the Men of the Trees, it is stated that the money already received in connexion with the Million Shilling Fund has enabled

about 90,000 trees, hardwoods and softwoods, to be planted in Great Britain. Exception appears to have been taken to the fact that some of these trees have been presented to landowners who

have already been paid for timber supplied for war purposes. It is said in defence that since these people have trained foresters and planters, the trees will be better looked after; but

surely the man who can afford to maintain a trained forester can afford the mere price of the plants necessary to replant felled areas. It is difficult to see any justification in supplying

him from a fund of small subscriptions given, presumably, by a tree–loving public. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your
