second- growth woodlot if it is clean cut when the trees are in the small diameter classos what size should a tree be when cut in order that the high est financial returns may be re alized clearly it must vary with the market conditions and the species but there are several re lationships between trees of large and small diameters that should be understood and given careful con sideration all species of trees should not be cut indiscriminately for fuel- wood as some such as white ash iwalnut oak pine and spruce on account of qualities of the wood have a very high value for special purposes and much higher financial returns over a period of years will bo realized if they are left to grow to timber size all trees have to go through the seedling sapling and polewood stages and during this time the annual wood growth is only a fraction when compared to the annual growth when it is in the larger diameter classes the genera rule is that the annual growth of wood on a tree increases as the tree i increases in size j cattle shipment prospects bright will start to move steadily from canadian ports march 5 montreal feb 17 cattle ship ments will once more start to move steadily from canada to great bri tain next mouth and what is even better news the cattle export busi ness is to be resumed out of mont real this summer the first shipment under the new arrangement will be on march 5 when the manchester liner manchester commerce takes a load of cattle out of saint john other shipments will follow the cattle business just folded up overnight with the resumption or irish shipments plus other factors and all last summer only a thin trickle of cattle went through the port as contrasted witli 1000 a week tor the previous two years xow three factors are at work first the irish cattle have had a bad winter that source of supply is drying up secondly american cattle prices are falling and it looks as if the us market will not be so good for a while simul taneously the british market is firming the drop in us prices and the rise in british prices justifies the cattle exporters in shipping once again it goes without saying that the shipping companies are delighted the donaldsons handled a little bit of business from donald munro and sons this last while they being the only ones active the last year in the cattle export business xow the manchester liners are getting into the
