Cites Evils of
Pasturing Woodlots
Studies have shown that we get
more .out of our woods, ay keeping
livestock out and more production
from our livestock by giving •them
better pastures, according to a release
from L. C. Merritt, district forester at
espeler.
oodland pastures average only
ab tit 275 pounds of dry forage per
acre per year. This kind of feed con-
tains only about 8 per cent protein,
so that the year's yield is about 22
pounds of protein per acre, Good open
pasture, limed and fertilized, will give
4,000 to 6,000 pounds of protein per
acre, 31. times as much as the woods
pasture yields.
When cows graze in your woods
small trees are trampled and eaten.
Rot and decay start where tree roots
are scarred and timber growth is
slow, In one woodland studied, graz-
ing reduced the annual yield of tim-
ber from 189 board feet per acre to
87.
When cows graze your woodland
they pound down the soil so that it
won't absorb water the way it should,
In one woodland, records showed that
grazing increased the surfabe arunoff
from 197 to 9308 gallons per acre per
year, When water washes away it
takes soil with it, In this same wood-
land the soil loss went from 5 pounds.
to 528 pounds per 'acre per year.
Pasturing woodlots does not pay.

Warns of crass Fires
For a few weeks each spring there
are numerous grass fires and too often
fires of this type spread to buildings
Warns district forester, I. 0, Merritt,
fiespeler.. There is an . urge to clean up
In the spring and bonfires are very
common—an owner may decide to
burn off a soma plot of old grass,
Fires such as this get out of control
easily and there is the danger that
they may cause damage to fences,
buildings, plantations and woodlots,
The grass is tinder dry and a fire will
often start from a match that is,
dropped after lighting aa,pipe or eig-
arette Forest plantations have been ruined
by spring grass fires that have burp-
ed over the area and practically all the
trees have been killed, There is ueue
ally a heavy mat of several years
growth of grass that has accumulated
and a very hot fire results.
Spring is the only season that a fire
will run through a hardwood bush, as
the dry leaves provide fuel. Extensive
damage results as seedlings and sap-
lings are destroyed and it quite often
sears the larger trees,
The smoker should not throw cig-
arette butts and matches out of car
windows but they should be 'placed in
the ashtrays. A match or cigarette
butt should be dropped and ground
into the earth by the heel of the shoe.
It is advisable to plan in advance if
the grass on a vacant lot or field is
being burned off, P.tem the grass when
several people are around with shovels
or water to keep it under control. The
tractor or team with a plow could be
ready to plow a furrow as one or two
furrows will stop a grass fire.
