There are several reasons for this comparatively close spacing of the trees; the rst is that the trees rapzo. ly shade the \\``hole of the groumi, killing out the grass and weeds wh.eh enables them to utilize the whole of the available inoistirre and nutriment. in the soil themselves; the second `IE that `the competition for light betwz.-en the trees forces them to grow up-. ward, thus rapidly producing long, st1`a.igVht trunnks; the third is that the upper branches and the surroun-din,_; trade shade the lower branohes, so that they die early and trunks free from knots are developed. Eventual- ly the real .~;trug;g'1`e for sur\v'i\`al be- gins; the small, weak trees can be removed and utilized, first for fuel- wood, then, as the stand grows older, for fence posts, while the most Vig- orous, lihe healthiest and best shaped ' _ trees are left to furnish the nal crop .' of timber.

According to United States census gures for 1932, the domestic consurners served by privately-owned utilities in that country paid an average of 5.60 cents per kilowatt-hour. It is a simple matter to compute that, if Ontario Hydro domestic C0I1511mr5 had had to pay, for the 740,000,000 kilowatt-hours they used in 1932, as much per kilowatt-hour as United States consumers paid, their bills would have aggregated the vast sum of $41,490,000, or nearly $30,000,000 more than the amount their electricity actually cost them under Hydro service. Hydro has saved the citizens of the associated Hydro municipalities tens of millions of dollars for electric service. And in addition, it has made possible the enjoyment of comfort-giving and labor-saving appliances on a scale that, but for low Hydro rates, would have been beyond the means of the average citizen. The facts about Hydro speak for themselves.

(This is `?he fourth of a s;c.1'ios oi seven articles on Reforestation in Simooe County, prepared by the On- tario Forestry Branch and appearing in The Advance from week to week). . vsrvivfiv 1-1 111 I I ll 1 I rI1Vate rlantauunxs County (By A.S.L.B.) Since the year 1907, which was the 0 first year in which trees were distri- I- buted, residents of Simeoe County `cl have obtained t1'ees, free, from the Onrtario Forestry Branch for the pur- poses of reforestation and supple- menting their woodlots. The distri bution in Simcoe County has in creased from about 4,000 trees to l over 1,000,000 in 1933 for private " planting alone. `In 1907, ~`.;he Hon, E. ` C. Drury and the late Alexander Fin 1 lay, who was reeve of Vespra town l ship for many years, obtained trees ` and set out two of the first prixatr pantations in the county. l`ihe larg est of the older plantations is prob- ably the City Dairy plot at New Lowell. In 1913 it was observed that a real blow ho-le, started probably by the tramping of the cattle was begin- ning to form on the north side of the gully which 't.rave1'ses the part of the farm south of the road. During 1913, 1914 and 1915 about 19,000 Scotcuh Pine trees were planted be tween -lie gully and the road, thus e'ectivelly arresting the size of the area which might have become a ser- ious menace to the .-`urrountling pas- ture land. These trees are now al- most 30 feet in height and well on the way to saw-lo_e; timber. For sev- eral years now they have been a source oi. seed, pro\'i(ling' a portion of the Scotch Pine cones gathered by} the Ontario Forestr;' Branch in this` district.
