Excerpt from The Taxation of Forest Lands in Wisconsin On the initiative of the Wisconsin State Board of Forestry, the Forest Service of the United States Department of Agriculture in April, 1910, entered into a co-operative agreement by the terms of which it was to undertake a study of forest conditions in the State of Wisconsin. The main purpose of the study was to determine the extent of the burden now carried by timberlands as a result of the present methods of taxation, and what influence, if any, such methods of taxation have or will have on the practice of forestry by private owners. Especial thanks are due the State Forester and also the State Tax Commission for the valuable assistance given throughout the course of the study. That the perpetuation of this country's forests, and their management along conservative lines, is an object of grave concern to the nation and to individual states, and a proper subject of legislation, all admit. Nor will it be denied by those having a proper regard for the future, that the time has arrived when affirmative action must be taken if this end is to be attained. Every day of delay lessens the chance of success. Forest conservation by private owners depends primarily upon one point: Does it pay ? If forestry can not be made to pay without granting it special favors it has no place in the business world of today. The two great obstacles to the practice of forestry by private owners are forest fires and an unjust and unequal system of taxation.

In Every Root an Anchor, writer and arborist R. Bruce Allison celebrates Wisconsin's most significant, unusual, and historic trees. More than one hundred tales introduce us to trees across the state, some remarkable for their size or age, others for their intriguing histories. From magnificent elms to beloved pines to Frank Lloyd Wright's oaks, these trees are woven into our history, contributing to our sense of place. They are anchors for time-honored customs, manifestations of our ideals, and reminders of our lives' most significant events. For this updated edition, Allison revisits the trees' histories and tells us which of these unique landmarks are still standing. He sets forth an environmental message as well, reminding us to recognize our connectedness to trees and to manage our tree resources wisely. As early Wisconsin conservationist Increase Lapham said, "Tree histories increase our love of home and improve our hearts. They deserve to be told and remembered."
