The owners and location of them are: R. J. Pickard, Uxbridge 'township; «4 miles south of Uxbridge; Joseph Lorsyth, Uxbridge Township, near Glasgow; Fred Beyer, Pickering Township; Wm. Dryden, Whitby Township; R. Ray McLaughlin, East Whitby; George Pemberton, Thorah Township; J. S. McFarlane, Reach Township. These woodlots were chosen as de- monstrations because they are in fine and Pea sizes. condition following years of wise management, or are being improved by cuttings, fencing out stock, or planting. They are adjacent to a road, and a demonstration woodlot sign has been placed on the property near the road. A well-stocked woodlot of 8 to 12 acres is generally considered an asset to a farm as it furnishes the owner with a convenient supply of fuel and lumber for building. There.is a con- siderable acreage of inferior land in Ontario county that is not suitable for cropping or pasturing, but fine timber can be grown on it. This inferior land is a liability to the owner and muni- cipality if it is not growing trees. Mr. R. J. Pickard has five acres in woodlot. It is a typical hardwood bush with sugar maple, beech, bass- wood, white elm, white ash, hickory and red oak. Twelve cords of 18 inch fuelwood have been taken out annual- ly for the past 27 years. Large tres that show signs of de- fect are selected for cutting. By this method no large openings are made, ahd-the volume of wood is not de- pleted. This gives the remaining trees more space to grow. The future value is increasing as the crooked, broken, defective trees are removed, while the straight, sound trees are left to grow into valuable timber. Mr. Joseph Forsyth's woodlot is 12 acres and consists mostly of maple and beech. About 10 cords of 4-foot "wood for heating the farm-house are taken out annually. Logs are taken out when lumber is needed on the farm. The surplus that is being accumu- lated may be considered in the same category as insurance. It can be drawn on in an emergeney for build- ing or to raise money when other crops have failed. R. Ray McLaughlin of East Whitby, has 2h acres, mostly maple and beech with a small percentage of elm, iron- wood, basswood and butternut. Several years back the open places wore planted with pine, soft maple and ash. Spruce and pine were also planted around the borders in order that there would be an effective windbreak. W. A. Dryden has woods, mostly hardwood. 30 acres of This bush has been improved through the years by removing defective' trees, and tak- ing out trees that die on account of competition. As trees increase in size they demand more space, they se- cure this by crowding out adjacent trees. J. S. McFarlane of Reach, has 1B acres of hardwood and hemlock. There are a few fine white pines and in 1927 800 red and white pine were planted in an open place. 200 pine, spruce, white ash and walnut will be planted in 1936 in order to have more variety and more valuable species growing.

With hearts so crushed and broken, We gathered around to-day And mourned, as only a mourn, Who lay their dead away. people And we sadly looked on the features Of the noble, manly youth, Who had lived and worked among us In uprightiress and sterling worth, Bright in his fresh young glory, Superb in his manhood's strength, He never dreamed of danger, Nor gave it a thought in length. Sparkling with life and spirits, Thoughtless he went his way, Intent on the task before him Nor dreamed that danger lay. So close in its subtle stillness, So dark and deep and sad; Invisible yet so mighty, By a thousand currents fed. We never will know how it hap- pened: Or his thoughts roamed back to his childhood, To friends of his youth and at school, And he worked in bright anticipa- tion Mr. and Mrs. G.

Of life with its rhythm and rule. Perhaps he was thinking of loved ones, In his little home town up the line, And laying up plans for the future, Its prospects to him were so fine. Invisible swift and repressing, Death dealt a relentless blow, And he fell around him, Where the sweet morning zephyrs blow. We tenderly mourn with the mourners: We would help bear their heavy Cross: We mourn as only people mourn, Who share in a common loss. And we'll cover his breast with flowers, And we will deck with a garland his brow, With the hope that somé whispering Sweetness May come from the blossoms just now. mid the greenless Beaverton are the visiting teams.
