Then Read On ---- This Will Interest You! Your bush may be more valuable than you think, particularly if it contains species such as hard maple, white ash, basswood, and black cherry. You have two choices with your woodlot: (a) You can do nothing and let it grow on its own, OR (b) You can care for it like you do any other farm crop. You are well aware of what would happen in a vegetable garden if it were planted and then ignored until harvest time. The same is true of your woodlot - - trees respond to proper care just as vegetables respond to proper cultural practices. Proper woodlot management is not difficult, and it can often double or triple .the growth rate of the trees to produce higher profits for you. Just as you weed and thin a vegetable garden, the low-value, crooked, diseased and over-crowded trees in your woodlot need to be eliminated to provide more moisture, sunlight and nutrients for the high-value "crop" trees. To help you make the most of your hardwood bush, the Ministry of Natural Resources offers two FREE services to woodlot owners: (a) WOODLOT INSPECTION AND ADVISORY' SERVICE At your request and at no cost to you, woodlot management specialists will inspect your woodlot, assess its present condition and advise on future management. , (b) WOODLOT IMPROVEMENT SERVICE If your woodlot is five acres or more in size and is in need of improvement work to eliminate low-value, non-productive trees, the Ministry can do the necessary work for you at no cost to you. The low-value trees may be utilized by the owner for firewood. Sound Interesting? CALL OR WRITE TODAY FOR MORE DETAILS • MINISTRY OF NATURAL RESOURCES Ontario R.
