Excerpt from The Trees of Vermont The intelligent fostering of this tree growth and the appreciation Of its beauty as well as of its value is in a considerable measure depend ent upon discriminating acquaintance with the different kinds Of trees found in our forests. Few realize how many kinds there are.' Within easy walking distance of the University at Burlington there occur, native, or spontaneous, sixty kinds of trees. There is a greater variety of trees in the Champlain valley than in the interior Of the state, yet the number of kinds to be found in any natural forest of limited area will be a pleasing revelation to one exploring it thoroughly.
