Canada’s milk production likely will
rise to a peak of 16,800,000,000 pounds
for 1954, the Bureau of Statistics es
timated.
This would be an increase of 2.5
per cent over output in 1953.October’s production totalled 1,874,-
845,000 pounds, down slightly from
last year’s 1,378,776,000. But the total
for the first 10 months increased to

CANADA LIVES BETTER WITH
A new sign is appearing on the
County Forests in Waterloo, Brant
and Wentworth. It reads;
Help protect your county forest
from fire and theft,’hunters welcome.
Do not take trees, wood, stone or soil.
Ontario Department of Lands and
Forests, Hespeler, 356.; Holidays, Hes-
peler, 2628.
Before the signs were put up, the
principle of welcoming hunters was
discussed with the appropriate com
mittees of the counties and with
others. In view of the fact that these
lands belong to the public, it was felt
that they should be of maximum ser
vice to the public, so long as their use
as hunting grounds or nature trails
did not interfere with their primary
purpose of " growing trees. Everyone
realizes that as more and more land
is posted with “No Trespassing”
signs, the hunter finds it more arid
more difficult to find a place where
he is welcome. These new signs are
an effort to reverse the trend and to
recognize the fact that hunters can
be very desirable people.
How did the hunter react? A week
after the first sign was put up, it
was found to have been used as a
target for No. 4 shot pellets. No doubt,
this, was done by a childish person,
and no one can condemn a whole
group because a few are silly. We still
believe that hunters generally are
good sportsmen, who will respond to
friendly treatment—but the incident
does point to a condition which needs
correction.
Can the hunters train one another
to be considerate of the owner of the
land on which they hunt? If the Fish
and Game Clubs could tackle this
problem successfully, they might stop
the posting of lands with “No Tres
passing” signs, and bring out the
happy word “Welcome”.

To a Good Sportsman
Who thinks of the other fellow as
well as himself.
Who, when hunting, strives to kill
clean so that his game will not suffer.
Who, when in doubt as to doe or
buck, cock or hen, gives the game the
benefit of the doubt.
Who enjoys the sport for the sport’s
sakes and not for the game in the bag
or the fish in the creel.
Who respects the property rights
of those upon whose land he is privi-
ledged to hunt.
Who never allows *his gun to be
pointed at anything he does not intend
to kill.
Who earnestly strives to conserve
and protect the natural resources of
his state and nation.
Who in the wonders of nature be
holds the power and the glory of his
Creator.
Who realizes that God has not only
given him dominion over all the earth
and everything that lives upon it but
has also charged him with the respon
sibility for their preservation.
Who uses courtesy, kindness and
care, in field and forest anywhere;
who so lives that in a future year,
none will regret that he passed here.

Most farm woodlots in Ontario
“sadly neglected or, at best, are
properly managed” according to C.
Harold Zavitz, of the Lake Erie dis
trict, Department of Lands and For
ests. At this season of the year, wood
lots should receive attention so that
they may make their proper contri
bution to the farm economy.
“The first step to be taken,” Mr.
Zavitz advises, “should be to elimi
nate livestock so that natural seeding
will produce successive generations
of trees to occupy open areas or areas
from which trees may be cut in the
future. The next step is to remove
weed trees such as ironwood, blue
beech, thorn, witch hazel, sumach,
wild apple.
“Poorly formed trees, diseased trees
and widely spreading trees should also
be removed so that the growth will
be on the best formed trees of the
most desirable species. The removal of
these classes of trees ordinarily is
called “improvement cutting.”
“Like all other farm products, the
material obtained in an improvement
cut should be directed to the most
profitable market. Much may be suit
able only for fuelwood .but posts and
poles and even sawlogs may be pro
duced if care is taken in working, up
the material.
“This "Work can be undertaken at
the time of year when other farm
work is. at a minimum and when lab
our is less expensive than during rush
seasons. It may even be used as a
means of reducing unemployment.
Sometimes the most feasible arrange
ment is to have the cutting done on
shares.
“In the Lake Erie district, the
Department of Lands and Forests is
currently engaged in woodlot im
provement operations which are pro
ducing fuelwood, posts, bolts or short
logs for bbxes and crating and some
sawlogs. These, it is expected, will
pay the cost of the operations. Result:
Subsequent growth will be going into
good trees.”
