Excerpt from Cutover Problems: Colonization, Depression, Reforestation
Men of the College of Agriculture had aided Cutover farmers in the past. In 1896 Dean William A. Henry had published Northern Wis consin, A Handbook for the Home seeker, which contained information on special problems, soil, climate and possibilities of the northland. Over the years faculty members had con ducted seed and plant experiments to find those best suited to Northern Wisconsin conditions. Such work was an aid to land companies, state agencies, local and regional groups, and local newspapers, which had pro moted agricultural settlement of the area for a long time.
