Excerpt from Report on the Relation of Railroads to Forest Supplies and Forestry: Together With Appendices on the Structure of Some Timber Ties, Their Behavior, and the Cause of Their Decay in the Road-Bed; On Wood Preservation; On Metal Ties; And on the Use of Spark Arresters While railroads have done much for the growth and development of our country, they are also responsible for much of the hindrance to re form in the use of our forest resources.
