thursday nov 26 1970 tree planting program demand exceeds the supply ky aa wall agricultural itepresen- tatiic for york county york cty trees on farms have been taking quite a beating in the last few years dutch kim disease has been the most destructive force by a long way it has had a tragic effect on the rural land- scoe and no practical way has been found to stop it changes in ownership and use of land here in york hasnt helped trees either outlook is often short range and since woodlots dont contribute very much anymore as either fuel or building materials they are often on the bottom of the priority list for care and attention still farmers i know have a real appreciation for trees and its wor thwhile to know that there are ways to improve the situation the metro conservation authority for example has a program to replace shade trees on farms they will plant up to too trees five to six feethigh on any farm in the area covered by the authority for s154j per tree the demand is nearly always far ahead of supply for these trees so the sooner orders go in the better seedling trees are available for planting next spring at ten dollars per thousand from the department of lands and forests pine spruce cedar ash silver maple oak and black locust are the common kinds and orders should go in now for next spring the woodland im provement act offers the widest range of assistance farmers with woodlots can sign an agreement with the department of lands and forests that will provide complete management advisory service and planting of new trees wherever needed the work can all be done by the department with the owner paying only for the trees and about 23 percent of the labor another way is for the owner to contribute his share in the form of labor the contract is for 15 years and can be tran sferred to a new owner if the farm is sold in terested landowners could contact john griffiths or neil mcdermott at the lands and forests office near maple an effort towards care and management of trees on farms can still be well worthwhile even with our fast changing farm situation select match site ontario cty the ontario plowmans association plans several years
