The Farmers Club of the American Institute of New York requests Congress to consider an amendment of forestry laws. Specifically they seek provisions to save national domain forests from needless waste, to create new forests and literature on forests, making the subject of tree culture an educational branch of study, and requiring the planting of trees for the use of public lands.
