FORESTER COMMENDS HURON ON REFORESTATION ''ROGRAM A recent copy of the weekly report of the Lake Huron Dis- trict of the Department of Lands and Forests refers, to the steps Huron County is taking to encourage reforestation within the county. The article, by Zone Forester L. C. Scales, follows: "The County of Huron is en- couraging its landowners to re- forest those lands which are 'marginal or sub -marginal for 'agriculture. By entering into an Agreement with their local township, owners may have their land reforested for the very nominal fee of one dollar per thousand trees planted. This is only slightly over one dollar per acre. "In order to obtain this bene- fit, the owner' must agree to properly fence froth livestock the area to be planted, leave the trees to grow for a period of 20 years, to 'be' present or have smeone present when the p1a�t- ing is being dope to supervise and do any hand planting that might be necessary and pay the nominal $1.00 per thousand tree charge. "Most of the planting is done by a machine which is owned and operated by the County of Huron. For very difficult situa- tions, at the discretion of the Zone Forester and the Huron County Reforestation Commit- tee, hand planting job is under- taken. Each township shares the cost (20 to 30 dollars per acre) by paying one half of the plant- ing costs. The county pays for the planting stock as well as Way to Improve Cuke Pickling A new method of preparing sweet cucumber pickles has been developed at the Canada Department of Agriculture's ex- perimental f arm at Morden, Man. Slices pickled by the new method are firm and crisp and the color is evenly dispersed. Describing the process, R. B. Hyde says gases are removed from the sliced cucumbers under a high vacuum and re- placed by water or a dilute syrup. Slices are packed into jars containing a sweet spiced vinegar solution and pasteur- ized. Cucumbers pickled by this method weigh up to 10 per cent more than when fresh, in eon- trast to cucumbers pickled by the usual methods which gen- erally shrink considerably. The Morden method appears to have considerable commer- cial possibilities. It would enable the thick cu- cumber slices used in sweet-hiix- ed pickles to be packed direct- ly from fresh cucumbers with- out shriveling, eliminating the customary s 1 o w fermentation method. Also, the quality and yield of pasteurized pickles from fresh sliced cucumbers may be improved by adding a vacuum treatment to the regular com- mercial process. TIMELY TIPS Keep your layers out of the summer egg slump, One way is to keep them cool. Reducing the depth of litter will help, says Professor J. P. Walker, poultry researcher at O.A.C. He advises keeping little depth down to three inches or less. In this way,he says. the hens are able to scratch down to the cool- er floor and are more comfort- able. Plan to fumigate the grain left in your granary if it's in- fested. Professor Harold Goble, Provincial Entomologist, sug- gests making the bin as gas- tight as possible and follow- ing manufacturer's recommenda- tions when using fumigants. Some cautions: Work in pairs and do the job as quickly as possible. Open the doors and windows and wear a recom- mended gas mask. Remove live- stock from the stable immedi- ately below the bin before ap- plying fumigants. THOMAS WILLIAM SOMER.

He pIans'to teach in Guelph. one half of the planting costa, but, receives a grant from the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture to cover part of the ex- penses. The Stratford Zone Forester is responsible for organizing each year's planting. In the sum- mer he Iines up prospects, ex- plains the agreement, inspects the land, draws up a planting plan with the owner, witnesses the signing of the agreement form and make certain the. pr¢ per completion of a tree appli- cation form. "The owner, will not likely hear from him again until the following spring when notice is given as to the arrival of the tree planting crew. During this time the Zone Forester, to- gether with the local township council and the county officials have provided for the approval of the agreement, passing of township by-laws, ordering and paying for stock, preparation of machine and hiring a crew. "Interested land owners should contact the Zone Forest- er, Department of Lands and Forests, Box 338, Stratford, On- tario." Ruth. Gorwill .
