No Better Leg#tcy for the'Farm Lad - 40„4„0 .T.i}e Government Forestry trench WIll leslst--Tree-Growing Re- giiirgs tittle Labor—Black Wal- z it Trees As Memorials—How to Treat Poison Ivy: (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) "Say, Mr. Forester, if a boy of my age were to plant an acre of black walnut this spring would I live to see the trees large enough to be used for the building of a house to shelter me in my old age?" "Yes, my lad, you could plant the trees to -day, and in fifty years time the trees would be large enough to cut into interior finishing lumber for your house." There is some satisfaction in plant- ing a tree and watching it grow to merchantable size. A Walnut Tree Grows for Many Years. A walnut tree will keep growing long after it has passed the half cen- tury mark, and keeps on making tim- ber until it is one hundred mid fifty years old. However, a very nice tree can be grown in fifty years on good soil; yes, large enough to make all the finishing lumber for the interior of a house. Ten acres of land planted under sane forestry methods with walnut will make, in time, a fine tract of valuable timber, which when ready to harvest, mould at present prices be worth $1,000 per acre. No Better Legacy Could Be Left. A man could leave no better legacy for his heirs than a block of good timber. The long time between seed- time and harvest in forestry frightens the average mortal, and deters him from planting forest trees. But peo- ple should not take the long time view seriously. Generations of hu- mans are yet to he born to live in this country, and since the present generation has largely destroyed the original timber, it is only Just and fair that we should provide for the 'wood and lumber requirements of the future. On nearly every farm there is some waste land or the remnant of a wood lot. It may be odd, rough spots or sandy hills, areas that have not produced profitable grain or grass crops an which could well be usc.1 for the growing of wood. The Government Forestry Branch Will Help. The Forestry Branch of the Lands and Forestry Department is co-oper- ating with four hundred Ontario farmers in which the Forestyy ofn- elees try to point the way to success in wood lot management. As a re- sult of such co-operation, many wal- nut, green ash, and red oak seedlings have been given a start toward useful production. A small seed will grow into a big tree. Nature does nearly all the work; man simply plants the seed or the little seedling tree and • waits. The young forest is establish- ed by planting a tree every six feet, crowding the trees together to force them to grow tall, straight stems. As the crowding becomes too great for thrift, alternate trees are taken out. These thinnings can be used as fence poles, rails, gate material, small lumber, such as chair and table legs, lamp stands, curtain poles, etc. So there is a source of revenue after the trees have been planted twenty years that will take care of the overhead expenses incidental to maintenance. Very Little Labor Required in Tree- - Growing. With the farm labor situation never satisfactory, and many farmers trying to crop twice as much land as they can handle properly, 'forest planting should show the way out. If the people of Ontario are to use wood in the house -building of the future, if we are to have fuel for the hearth, a lot of land owners must do some forest planting very soon.—L. Stev- enson, Sec. Dept. of Agriculture. Black Walnut Trees As Memorials. Planting of black walnut trees as memorials to soldiers is recommend- ed by the United States Department of Agriculture. It is pointed out that the black walnut played a valiant part in the World War. The wood was used for gunstocks and airplane propellers, and the nutshells contri- buted carbon for gas masks, while the kernels were used in many deli- cacies for the boys in the trenches. Demand for the wood for war pur- poses depleted the number of fine old trees, and this method' is suggested for filling their places. How to Treat Ivy Poisoning. In the early stages of ivy poisoning remedies having a fatty or oily base, such as ointments, should not be used, as the grease or oil tends to dis- solve and spread the poison, accord- ing to specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Instead they advise simple remedies such as local applications of solutions '"of cooking soda or of Epsom salt, one or two heaping teaspoons to a cup of water. Fluid extract of grindelia, diluted with 4 to 8 parts of water, is often used. Solutions of this kina may be ap- plied with light bandages or Glean cloths, which should be kept moist, and should be changed and discarded frequently to avoid infection. During the night, or when moist applications can not be used, the poisoned sur- faces should be carefully cleaned and dried and left exposed tothe air rath- er than •tightly bandaged. In the later 'stage, after the• toxic material has exhausted itself, zine -oxide oint- `mentand si'i liar mild antiseptic and astringent applications hasten heal- ing.

It is impossible to say how many fires along railway lines are not due to engine sparks, but to the thoughtless smoker tossing away his cigarette or cigar butt. However, there is no doubt a fair num- ber of forest fires originate in this way, and such are preventable. Each in- dividual should realize his personal responsibility to be careful with fire in any form in northern 'Ontario. Save -Ontario's Forests The Ontario fire ranger is at the mercy of all types of carelessness, and cannot prevent fires starting, as a rule. He can only attempt to limit the " consequences. He is entitled to your help and co-oper- ation by being careful with fire. Ontario Forestry Branch Parliament Buildings Toronto, Ontario • Ih;�v _•r *-t 62 4 4 a a S w w I d 4
