Reforestation
Nearly twenty million .young
trees are now being distributed
by the reforestation division, On
tario Department of Lands and
Forests, but millions are required
to meet a demand which has been increasing by leaps and
bounds since the free distribu
tion of trees began in 1905 with
an output of 5,000 trees.
Following the establishment of
nurseries at Midhurst and Orono
after World War One, output of
planting stock increased until in
1939 7% million trees were dis
tributed while last year the total
distribution was more than 17,-
900,000.
At present, the Department
operates five reforestation .sta
tions: St. Williams, with 4,000
acres; 'Midhurst 2,500 acres; Or
ono, 900 acres; Kemptville, 1,500
and Fort William, 400 acres,
According to E. J. Zavitz, the
chief of the Reforestation Divi
sion “most tree seed is gathered
in northern Ontario by the De
partment and sent to the seed
extracting plant at Angus. This
station is equipped .with the
most modern methods of extract
ing, cleaning and Storing seed,
which is shipped to the nurseries.
It takes two to three years to
produce satisfactory planting
stock; one or two years in seed
beds and one to two years as
transplants. The nurseries are
now equipped to ,produce from
50 to 60 million plants in the
seeding stage and with the de
velopment of sub-stations attach
ed to the major reforestation
areas, the total available plant
ing stock could reach at least
60 million trees a year, Mr. Za-
vitz said?
It has been the practice of .the
Department to distribute trees
for planting, free of charge. In
the recent report of the .Legis
lature's select committee on con
servation, however, there may be
indications of a change of policy.
The committee suggested:
“The purpose was to encourage
reforstation, and with this pur
pose the committee is wholly in
accord . . . However, there is
evidence that the free trees are
carelessly handled in many cases,
probably because it costs nothing
to obtain them/It is reasonable
to suppose that they would be
more carefully handled if even a
small price were attached. This
might not have been possible in
the early days of distribution,
but recently the demand has ex
ceeded the supply.
“Moreover, submissions to this
committee indicate that consider
able stock from government
nurseries is being utilized for
the commercial Christmas tree
trade. This is an industry to be
encouraged on submarginal ag
ricultural land, but it is also a
revenue-producing industry . . .
In the opinion of this committee,
nursery stock for such purposes
should not be distributed free."
Lands and Forests Minister,
Harold R. Scott, declared that
the Department for some time
had been studying the problem
of making a nominal charge for
the trees and in view of the com
mittee’s recommendation "o u r
study will certainly be contin
ued.’’
