Tree Planting
the snow vanishes and tree
ing season approaches, the
Lands and Forests offer a few sug
gestions to prospective treeplant
ers.
Trees supplied from the- govern
ment nurseries may be shipped t
the nearest express station or the
may be ;picked up at the nursery
according, to the preference of th
planter'. As it is important to
plant the trees as soon as possible
after they have been lifted, ex
press shipments should be accepte
at once and taken to a cool place
If it is not possible to plant them
immediately, the trees should b
kept in a cool moist spot or "heel-
ed in"—a booklet inside the ship-
ping box will describe how to do
this, and it will also describe in
detail how to plant the tree.
Trees will die if the roots are
allowed to dry. This may happen
in the package, although all pos-
sible care is taken to avoid it—
hence the need for opening pack-
ages or crates at once. It may
happen if a careless planter carries
the trees without the protection
of water in a pail or moss in a
basket; and it may happen after
the tree is planted if the planter
'does not ensure that the roots are
properly placed in a wedge-shaped
hole into which the earth is stamp-
ed firmly after the tree is planted.
A Iittle care and energy frequently
makes the difference between suc-
cess and failure in planting trees.

Planting of forest trees may be
done by a machine in locations
where a tractor may be used. Ma-
chine planting is cheaper and fast-
er but it is doubtful if a machine
should be used• unless the number
of trees to be planted exceeds
1,500, The Grand, Saugeen and
Upper Thames Authorities own
planters and give assistance in
tree planting, The Counties of
Halton, Wentworth, Brant, Water-
loo and Wellington also own plant-
ers which are available for private

Bob Cats
Bob cats are increasing and
extending their range in Ontario.
They've been known in adjoining
Michigan for a long time and are
by no means rare in the upper
peninsula, so it is possible that
many in this part of the province
have resulted frem invasion from
the USA.
' Bob cats weigh from 15 to 30
pounds and are from 15 to 30
inches long. Closely resembling
the more common lynx, they are a
little smaller and have shorter,
less conspicuous ear tufts. There
is more distinct spotting on their
legs. The black on the tip of the
tail is present only on the top and
they are a little more reddish in
colour.
Potentially, bob cats can be a
serious threat to domestic animals
as well as to game species. They
wander into farming areas and in-
evitably come into conflict • with
human interests. Chickens, ducks,
turkeys, if left alone at night are
welcome on the bill of fare. Lamb
and even full grown sheep are
added to the menu from time to
time.
Have we any round here? Yes,
a bob cat was reported killed with.
in three miles of Clinton.

You can catch them in your bare
