It is realized that school will seldom have the best kind of soil available, or be supplied with all the tools desirable to do this work with the best results. Consequently, the attempt is here made to give directions which will be applicable to schools with very limited resources." -- p. 6. Topics discussed include collection and storage of tree seeds, soil preparation, planting techniques, and transplantation of seedlings.
