Some see the beauty, the solitude, the wildlife, the clear, cool streams. Others see work, products, sales and revenues. All are benefits of the forest and all of them are of benefit to us in varying degrees. National Forest Week, May 5-11, is a time. to focus our attention on the benefits of the forests rather than the wrangling that goes on about and within them. The theme this year is simply "You Need Forests." How true that is.' Wood, water, wildlife, recreation, jobs, clean air, taxes....the list of forest benefits goes on and on. Our forests are an important resource which we in Ontario should know more about. National Forest Week is a good time to begin. *by Phyllis Mitchell.
