A farmer who owns a woodlot in close proximi~`y to |his home for fuel wood has an ad- vantage over his neighbor who has to go out and buy wood or coal. .\ ine:;: per cent. of the people in Oro town` ship burn wood for fuel. In man;-* townships of Ontario this is reversed and ninety. per cent. burn coal be- , cause wood is not available. As a rule, the people only consider the cash outlay for wood and not for labor, as thework is usually done In a slack season. 0 T n-\.Ir.nu I nn-.1-`nu zwnnlivnrl MAKES SURVEY or : WOODLANDS IN one Bl S1aCK 56215011. 2. Lumber. Lumber secured from a few of t.he farmers own logs nds ready use around the farm. Many farmers in Oro secured high prices for their woodlots when lum- ber was high. 3. Prevents Floods and Erosion. The snow remains longer in the buslr. on account of the shade and conse- quently prolongs the run-off, lessen- ing the ood danger in the spring. . The thick mulch under the trees acts as a sponge and quite a percentage of the water seeps away instead of . running off as surface water. This water helps to supply the under- v gro-und streams which feed the ` woods. Steep hillsides, if denuded '-iof tree growth, are often badly , eroded by spring oods and freshets. 4.

Beauty. The.country is beau- tiful because of the woodlands and itrees around buildings and along the fence rows. i How a Woodlot May Be Improved i 1. Fencing out the stock. Nat- sure would keep an area in woodland lif man would keep the stock out `The stock browse o the young seed- lings, break down the saplings, tramp and injure the roots `of the large ltrees and pack the ground around `the roots. The woodlot. eventually becomes the scattered tree type with ,no young growth and this procedure -! means the gradual destruction of the lwoodlot. I 2. Wise and judicious cutting. (a) Cutting the trees as they be- come mature. A tree should be cu? when sound to secure the highest .price, but often a tree if allowed to `stand will hold back young growth trees that are capable of putting on far more good growth per acre than lthe old mature trees. iuunnulg UUHBIIIS El Cl'Op OI [Ul'nlpS.
