eter, If it required the same number, diameter limit, as there are many
of years, it means according to the ] trees under the diameter limit that
table that a tree puts on six times I should be cut and others above that
the volume of wood growth when ! should be left, as they are' healthy
growing front 5-10 inches as it does
from a seedling to a tree 5 inches in
diameter.
It is a much better financial pro
position to have an income from a
property every year or period of 10-
20 years rather than every 30-50
years as is the case when the woods
is cut clean.
Another vital reason why woods
should not be clean cut is that the
land is liable to be cleared and peo
ple are realizing more every year that
too much land is already cleared. The
farmer often pastures a clean cut
wood in order to secure revenue from
the land. The stock browse the young
trees. If the land is sandy, shallow,
swamp or is on a steep hillside it
will be found in the swamp, waste or
barren classification rather than the
valuable woodland classification.
A much better method of selling
woodland is to follow a selective sys
tem. This may be a minimum diam
eter limit or.the trees that are to be
removed may be marked by blazing
or daubing them with paint. This is
and arc at the stage when they are
putting on the maximum and also
more valuable wood growth.

accident during the past week on the
farm of J. C. Higgins. He had driven
the team into the barn-yard and was
unhitching them for the noon hour.
One tug was still fastened when they
became frightened and jumped. Mr.
McHardy was thrown down and re
ceived a nasty cut on the arm and his
arm broken between the shoulder and
elbow. Medical aid was summoned
and he was removed to the Listowel
hospital for X-Ray. He is progress

"Voice of Youth” at the Royal Win
ter Fair
The "Voice of Youth” in a double
sense, will be heard at the Royal
Winter Fair next month when youth
ful orators, chosen best in the nine
provinces, will compete in a contest
recalling some of the features of the
ancient Greek schools, the Roman
forum, the medieval Troubadors and
today’s contests of the Welsh Bards.
Local competitions are now being
conducted in all provinces with the
aid of Departments of Agriculture for
the selection of provincial speakers.
Finals are to consist of ten-minute
addresses by the young orators deliv
ered in public at the Royal Fair. The
judges, who are prominent elocution
ists, will make their adjudication on
oratorical merit, 30 points to be
awarded for quality and suitability of
the subject and content of the speech,
and 70 points for the manner and ef
fectiveness of delivery.
This departure in the scope of the
Royal has been arranged under the
general plan of dedicating this year’s
Fair to “Youth in Agriculture.” It
was felt that the Royal could add
something like a new service to the
"higher education” in agriculture
which has been a feature of its aim
for the past fifteen years, and is mo
tivated by the desire that the vital
relationship of “Youth in Agricul
ture” should be realized by the Can
adian public—in other words, that
the claims and aspirations of youth
should be set forth by the "voice of
youth” itself. The Royal’s plan is be
ing co-ordinated with admirable work
being done by the Canadian Council
on Boys’ and Girls’ Club Work.

a
of wood and therefore higher financ
ial returns would be secured if a sys
tem of selective cutting were follow
ed.
The cutting of all trees on an area
was proper in pioneer days when it
was the intention to clear the land
for agricultural crops and pasture, but
it is economically wrong if it is the
intention to keep an area in product
ive woodland.
There are several other reasons
why owhers continue to sell wood
land in this way. It gives substantial
returns and it is the easiest method
to sell a woods. Prices per acre vary
from $25.00 to $200.00 per acre, de
pending on the size of the trees, the
species, the density of the stand and
the available supplies of fuelwood in
the district. Farmers who do not own
a woodlot approve of this method,
as they do all the work during the
winter when other work is not press
ing.
Owners should consider carefully
before they sell woodland as they re
duce the income from a woods con
siderably by allowing the small trees
to be cut. Trees 1-5 inches in diam
eter have a comparatively small value
for fuelwood, but they have a high
potential value, as they are many
years old and have reached the size
when they are putting on appreciable
wood growth. This is shown very
conclusively by a table that gives the
number of trees in different classes
that are necessary to yield a standard
cord of fuelwood. This tables gives
the following figures:
2 inches
5 inches
10 inches
15 inches
20 inches

According to one authority, the
things for which the industry and the
fishermen have advocated for years
are coming to pass. For instap.ee,
$200,000 has been appropriated by
the Government to increase the de
mand for Canadian fisheries products.
There is a $300,000 loan fund voted
for the assistance of needy Maritime
fishermen in renewing boats and gear.
And there is a move afoot for social
improvement that will bring more
benefits to the men who go down to
the sea.
rlAVpRft^?*
It looks like a new deal all round
for the Canadian fisherman and his
industry. If the advertising now be
ing launched by the government is
successful in its objectives, those in
fishing circles claim that the Canad
ian fishing industry will receive an
impetus that will send it forward to
a new and prosperous basis . And in
this the first to benefit will be the
fisherman himself. According to the
"Canadian Fisherman”, a journal de
voted to the industry, the welfare of
Canada’s fisherman is recognized by
all in the country as of primary im
portance. With the increased popu
larity of fish and greater consumption
of it by their fellow citizens, the fish
ermen of Canada are looking forward *
