County above Ontario
rate of heart disease
BY SARAH THOMSON
Goderich Signal -Star Staff
Heart disease is the leading
cause of death in Ontario
and Huron County is above
the provincial average stated
a report released late last
month.
The study entitled
Cardiovascular Health anal
Services in Ontario was
conducted by the Toronto -
'based Institute for Clinical
Evaluative Sciences and the
Heart and Stroke Foundation
of Ontario.
Provincially 370 people per
100,000 die of heart disease
while Huron County's
average is 431 deaths per
100,000 people. -
"If there is one message
people take from the results it

Rich soil here
The rich soil of
Southwestern Ontario grows
high value agricultural crops
and can also produce high
value trees, said Ausahle
Bayfield Conservation
Authority • forestry
technician. Steve Harburn.
Better forest management
by landowners is the
ingredient that is missing in
getting the greatest value
from trees.
Harburn, who has worked
with the ABCA for more
than seven years, has
evaluated many woodlots for
landowners and helped them
increase the value of their
land.

Tricia Wilkenson, Take Heart
Huron project co-ordinator.
Take Heart Huron is
involved with the creation
and promotion of activities
and programs that reduce the
incidence of heart diesease
and fatalities.
The rural nature of the
county is one of the factors
contributing to inactivity,
said Wilkenson.
"People in rural areas can't
just go out walking after
dark," said Wilkenson. "But
communities are getting
better in providing
community trails." •

"It's confusing looking at

most local woodlots, I find
diseased or poorly formed
trees that will never produce -
a quality saw log or veneer,"
he said.
Harburn speculates one
reason for the decline in
woodlot health is that people
are burning Icss wood. In the
past. poor qualify trees were
often removed lir firewood.
Coupled with the fact people.
spend Icss time in their
woodlots, disease gets a
head start before it's put in
check. For example, diseases
such as Target Canker in
hard maple can spread
quickly through a forest and
damage, several valuable
trees. Harburn said.
"Walk your svoodlot at
least twice a year" he
recommended. "Trees could

Ifarhurn said removing
firewood also t hins the

high quality trees receive
more sunlight and get to
market sire faster.

provide the only answer and 1
am sure there are some things
we aren't looking at," said
Wilkenson, who hopes by the
end of the four-year Take
Heart Huron project numbers
will decrease below the
provincial average.
One of the problems
Wilkenson has found while
encouraging heart health and
meeting with people in
February and March last year
was people were unwilling to
to change their behaviour
unless they or someone close
to them has "hit the wall."
"One of our challenges is
to find out how we can
encourage people to make
healthy choices before they
'hit the wall,'- " said
Wilkenson.
high value
smaller trees, as little as
eight inches in diameter, and
today's prices can bring a
good return. According to
Leonard Scales from
Interforest in Durham,
veneer prices for hard
maple, red oak and black
cherry arc $1.80-4.00 U.S.
per hoard foot.
"Generally the butt log of
the tree is used for veneer
and must he free of defects
like branch stubs," Harburn
explained. "It's very easy to
produce logs of this quality
by properly managing our
woodlots."
The ABCA has been
managing woodlots for more
than 50 years for timber,
conservation and wildlife
purposes. Staff members
such as Harburn can visit
your farm and provide
technical expertise to help
