In many sections of Eastern Can- ada, and especially in the older dis- tricts' of the Province of Ontario | there is now as great need of exten- sive tree planting for the one purpose | of providing shelter for farm crops and stock, as there is on the prairies of the western provinces; while in addition there is the need of produc- Ing timber for use at a reasonably early date to be considered. As re- gards the latter need, the eastern provinces are much better suited to | grow desirable kinds of trees than | are the prairie provinces, and intend- | ing planters have a wide range of species to select from in starting a farm windbreak or shelter belt with a view to ultimately adding to the supply of timber.
