The profession of forestry started to take hold in the United States in late 1800s. In 1889, George Vanderbilt hired Gifford Pinchot a young forester educated in Europe, to manage the forest at the Biltmore Estate. It was the nation’s first professionally managed forest.

In 1891 Congress passed the Forest Reserves Act, which created a reserve of 40 million acres of forestland in the United States. Six years later in 1897, Congress passed the Organic Act, which served as the basis for management of the newly created forest reserves.

At the time, there were fewer than 10 individuals in the nation with any formal forest-management training, and all of them studied in Europe. That changed in 1898, when the Biltmore Forest School and the New York State College of Forestry at Cornell started forestry education programs. Two years later, the Yale School of Forestry began training professionals to manage this vital resource.

There are approximately 15,400 foresters working in the United States. Federal, state, and local governments are by far the largest employers of foresters. About 40 percent of all salaried employees work for federal mostly in the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service.

Saint Patrick, the patron Saint of Ireland, established as such in 1647 by the Catholic Church, never personally stood for, nor did the church intend the day to stand for, raw beef and onions, bagpipe parades, taking the day off to party, dyeing rivers, and rivers of beer, green and so on.

As it turns out, it took centuries for the holiday to accrue the elements that now seem crucial to its celebrations.

It wasn’t until the early 18th century that many of today’s traditions were kicked into high gear.

Since the holiday falls during Lent, it provides Christians a day off from the prescriptions of abstinence leading up to Easter, and around the 1720s, the church found that it “got kind of out of control.”

Truth is, this is often a tough world that tends to break people down sometimes, all the work, responsibilities, family obligations and much else can pile up and make folks feel a little overwhelmed and pointless at times.

Billy Joel said it in a song, Piano Man, in one line about a guy who played piano in a bar, and what the bar owner thought of him, “He knows it’s me they’ve been coming to see to forget about life for a while.”

And so we do need things, diversions, recreations, playing golf or tennis, watching spectator sports, going fishing, and finding cause for celebration on days like St Patrick’s Day. And whether it makes sense or not to get wild and crazy, have a few, go out dancing and all, it doesn’t matter, what matters is that every once in awhile it’s good to let it all hang out, and even the Bible encourages it when it says, in Psalm 100, “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord.”

And while it might not be as euphoric as a night on the town, we can give you a reason to celebrate with our huge selection and great prices on custom rubber stamps and our special St Patrick’s Day discounts.

They say it all comes out in the wash, but one thing you don’t want to have come out in the wash is any impression you wish to make and that’s why we offer our custom laundry stamps. Doing the laundry, of course, has evolved significantly over the centuries during which people have constantly sought, and still do today, to make things easier and easier.

Early civilizations used various materials like sand, ashes, and animal fats to clean clothes by hand. Fabrics were beaten against rocks or submerged in running water to remove dirt and stains. It was hard work and of course it made the people who did that hard work strong. It’s interesting to note that the human body is made to work, walk, lift, throw and so on, in order to survive, but since all that tough survival stuff has been mitigated by advances in technology…oddly enough, while we made hard things easier and easier, we factored useful exercise out of our equation and now anyone who wants to be in good shape has to go to the gym.

If you walk 20 miles a day in search of some berries or a scrap of meat and have to fend off saber toothed tigers with a makeshift spear, you hardly need to do laps or push ups to get strong or lose weight, and in fact losing weight back then was a bad thing because it meant you were going to starve.

Obviously, I guess we’d all rather order from Doordash than wind up in a fight to the death with a wooly mammoth, but who knows maybe that was preferrable in some ways to having to work out all the time.

Things are what they are though and certainly the push to make things easier will never end, and along those lines we’ve made things easier in the laundry department for those who wish to identify clothing with logos, instructions, names, numbers or any other useful markings.

We offer reliable, high-quality clothing stamps and accessories. You can choose options allowing for permanent impressions capable of lasting up to 40 washes without removal and lasting up to 90-degree temperatures. We can customize up to three lines of print on each stamp to include name and address for a convenient labeling system. Choose from leading names in the industry, such as Trodat and Artline for quality and performance you can count on for many years. The ink used for this type of application is non-toxic and acid-free for an option that is safe for skin contact. It is also smudge proof and water resistant, so it will not rub off on skin or other clothing.

Probably doing the laundry with modern machines isn’t much more fun than beating your clothes on rocks down by the river, but if you want to add an identifying touch to fabric, we’ve come up with a way that is, of course, much easier now than having to sew on some label. As for getting some exercise, we’ll leave that up to you!

A while back there was a young blond, or so the story goes, who came upon a cottage wherein a Mamma, Papa and Baby bear lived…only when she arrived the bears were momentarily out, while they left three bowls of porridge cooling on the kitchen table.

Being hungry, and a bit bold, she tasted some from each of the three bowls and found Papa’s to be too hot, Mamma’s to be too cold, but baby bear’s was just right.

She also finds the baby bear’s bed to her liking and after devouring the little one’s breakfast she passes out there until the Grizzlys’ return home and then runs from the place never to be seen again, until this Rubber Stamp Champ blog post.
