Ontario farmers are becoming
increasingly ocnaeioua of the
neeeeesity of eliminating 'bovine
tuberculosis from their herds, A
few years ago there was open
hostility in many counties to the
restricted area plea fostered by
Ontario and Federal' Governments,
but this. opposition has gradually
been swept away until now there
are fifteen counties in Ontario in
the restricted area list, Grey, Sim-
ms, Lanark, Victoria and Peter-
borough counties have signed up
for tests while petitions are being
circulated in Lennox and Adding-
ton, Hastings, Weatworth, Norfolk,'
Rainy River, Lincoln, Essex, Wel-1
land and Bruce.

REFORESTATION
Planting or Natural Reproduction
By 1. C. Merritt
There has been an intense in•
t_erest in conservation and refores-
tation the pas'- two years In South-
ern Ontario. It is realized by
many thinking people that too
great a percentage of the land has
been cleared in the fine agricul-
tural sections, and there are many
thonsands acres of stfb. marginal
lands that are growing practically
nothing of value, but fair ftnan-
clal returns would be received if
trees were growing. Much of
this poor land has to be planted
as there are no seed trees.
Floods are liable to occur on
many of the rivers and creeks,
wells and springs go dry, and
winds hare an open sweep, thus
making it more clinical:: to grow
agricultural crops.
Reforestation is a necessity in
Ontario. The method and the
agency that should do the work
should be determined. Many think
only of planting when reforesta-
tion is mentioned. They do not
realize that reforestation Mendes
natural reprodnction. An area can
be reforested naturally if there
are trees' growing on or adjacent
to the area that is to be reforested
Tree seeds ripen on the tree and
fall to the ground. Some of these
germinate and a small tree has
started to grow It will grow into
a large tree if it is protected from
stock and fire, if it survives
the competition of other trees.
The cost of Te}reetation by
nature is negligible when compared
to planting. The cost to the farm-
er Is the loan cf pasture and tbe
fence to keep the stock out, Plant-
ing includes these and also nurs-
ery and planting costs. Another
advantage of natural seeding is that
it is more sure, This Is especially
true of poor sites. Trees will start
and grow well on shallow soils,
while it is very difficult to secure a
stand by planting Decldlous trees
require fairly close 8p4,0ing
(3-4 feet) and the coat of planting

An advantage ee planting over
natural reproduction is that only
tamable species may be grown
while to valuable and geed
species grow in the woods that re-
produces from seed. The repro-
duction of the available species In
a woods can be seemed rby remov-
ing the weed trees and leaving the I
more valuable to seed up the open
places. The more valuable species
would also be favoured in thin-
rings.
Many tree seeds fell and were
blown around last fail and during
the winter. Other species will'
have seed ripening in early sum-
mer. Many or these seeds will ger-
minate and they would grow into '
trees if the field is protected from
fire and: stock.
Farmers who are fortunate to
have woodland on the farm should
plan to do their pant in reforesta-
tion by fencing at least from stock,
Many have only a few acres left
and they think that it is hardly l
worthwhile. But even an 'acre of
woodland wilt help in controlling
floods, and will be a reservoir that
will help to keep water in springs
and wells.
