We can't hunt bears and moose and elk among heaps of two-by-fours and shingles. Neither will a barrier of planks and beams protect our vast watersheds or hold back floods. All of which means that a passable substitute for construction wood or even -paper-making wood could be found, if worst comes to worst-- but' where will we. seek grazing, re- creational, wild life, and land- -conserv- ing bewefits without these green and growing trees? I was raised, and maybe you were too, in' the era of reckless and wanton exploitation of the original virgin woodlands. My country's richest na- hob made a fortune felling timber and rafting \sawlogs to the mills. A few of the wiser ones used "selective cut- ting" and. some even did some replac- ing. : But for the most part, these old ravages were crazy for immediate pro- it in an expanding country erying for timber products, and they behaved like a lot of ignorant boys robbing birds' -jnests. - One of .my relatives was en- gaged. in the business amid the booms, but he was just an axman and did what he was paid to plunder.

Cutting drain"and the rest-is- cauged by fire, insects, disease, and neglect, Present dependence for adequate timber supplies rests mainly on pri- vately owned land. Here the manage- ment practices are not as good "as many beliéve they could be. About three quarters of the 'commercial for- ests are in private hands and 'one quarter of the land is owhed by state, federal, and loeal governments. fourth of the private woodland stands in medium and large holdings of 5000 acres or over. Of this part of the commercial 'area, lumber and pulp con: cerns and individuals hold sway, pos- sibly less than 4,000 owners in all. Then we have the other three fourth owned in tracts. of varying sizes, all More than half-of-this. portion-les-in farms and the rest in non-farm tracts often owned by absentees. "It foots up to somewhere near four million indivi- duals with an average forest property of possibly .65 acres apiece. Only about 8 or 10 per cent of the present harvest of timber on. private lands is such as to measure up to fair- ly good standards of practice. © More than 60 per cent of the cutting on pri- vate lands is said to be miserably' de- structive or poor, to say at least. The best and highedt percentuge of excel- lent cuttings is that -done 'on larger Properties: Farm properties do not | [get a good rating on cutting methods, as seer by official foresters. They are rated 73 per cent. poor or harm- ful, 28 per cent just fair, and only 4 per cent. good.. : So it simmers down after the pot is, stirred to the fact that the level of forestry management for public in- terest can be bettered chiefly by find- ing ways to induce the ones who have small tracts to improve their system for the future. Grazing of woodlands by stock and serious overcutting by untrained persons are two major rea- sons why the farms show up so poorly. The best way to bring about a gradual improvement is worth discussion in any rural 'meeting, but to let it be after a talkfest gets us nowhere. In essence, the job that we have cut out for us is to practically double the estimated annual. saw-timber growth of 35 to 40 billion. hoard feet each and every year. It's a plant expert's job, as well as one for the engineer, and the Extension Service worker, and the growing stock in sufficient volume of healthy trees-so-that-when-one year's crop is: harvested: there will be plenty neglected to provide enough seed and fertilizer and machinery "and- rotation land to grow another crop when he had harvested and stored his current eason's abundance. Just why we should adopt one system of careful ad- vance planning in a vast field of vege. tative husbandry and put no thought world's tallest and most valuable plant life is har® to understand. I presume the answer is that in the development of 'this country we have regarded both trees and grass as out- right natural gifts--wild life 'which _|had no claim on man for culture or maintenance, It's only in recent years that we have really accepted pastures and tvoodlands' as regular farm crops. If Nature's herbaceous resources served only to please the eye and vary | the scenery, or-give comfort to wild animals and vacationists, we" would be amply justified in adopting them and becoming stewards for their per- petual welfare, But you can pick up an scientific guide to the treasures' locked inside of trees and find startling -evidence that a dwindling timber supply threatens huge industries, and strikes at the in- comes of thousands of daily bread- It is said. to ex xeeed the volume of | RELATION SIE accounts for almost 90 per cent, of this: Forest figures say that about one 5,000 ----acres----or-- -less;--deeidedly---less- teacher.

This erroneous infpres- sion_has been gathered because thel- average, person knows that the news- paper must have advertising to exist, and thevefore if he happens to be a suspicious turn of mind, he concludes that the advertiser must. set the policy of the newspaper. Not only is such a nEeAtion un- true, but it is unfair both to the news- paper and to the advertiser. Prac- tically every publisher will tell you that few merchants ever attempt to dictate the policy of the newspaper. They muy express opposition to some stand--the-newspaper--hta--taken, buat few would go so far iis to threaten the newspaper with withdrawal of busi- ness, if that policy was not changed to conform with the wishes of the ad- vertiser. The successful merchant is usually successful because he 'is an honorable man, and few would- stoop- to the level of threatening.a newspaper because its publisher had different ideas on a given.question than the ad- vertiser, The relationship between the adver- tiser and the newspaper is similar to that which exists between a merchant and his customer, only in this case the publisher i the merchant and the ad- vertiser the customer, The advertiser purchases space in the newspaper be- cause he has a story to tell the readers of the paper. Hé uses "advertising 'as a-legitimate means of drawing custom to his. store. Ifthe newspaper con- tinues to provide the service required and adequate returns for -the invest- ment the merchant continues to ad- vortise. ting that value he ceases to advertise. That too is the relationship which exists between any other merchant and his customer: So long as the customer vice from the. store, he continues to be n customer. When value and service cease he takes his trade elsewhere. Leonard's Cleaners WHITBY, ONT. T.et us take care of your Opi We will be pleased to eall at your door any Tuesday or Satur- day.
