Your Woodlot Can Earn Cash for wildlife habitat Are you sitting on a goldmine? goldmine? Not likely. But you may have potential income which has been neglected up to now. Throughout the area covered covered by tne Lindsay District of the Ministry of Natural Resources, there are a lot of woodlots which could easily produce more dollars for their owners than they have. The secret is to ask M.N.R. staff in Division of Forests for help to sell forest products from your woodlot. This free service involves a consultation at our wood- lot by M.N.R. staff with advice advice and information on how to manage your woodlot best. In some cases, particularly particularly woodlots less than 10 acres, the best advice may be to let the area develop naturally 1 and aesthetic appreciation. In 10 acre (4 hectare) larger woodlots, it may be possible to do improvement or harvest operations which could generate revenue for the landowner. During the visit to your woodlot, the Forest Technician for your area can explain how MNR staff may mark with yellow paint the trees to be removed, removed, measure and/or tally them, and produce a volume estimate. Removing poor quality and mature trees will promote better growth rates on the trees remaining in the woodlot. It is recommended recommended that the landowner contact a professional logging logging contractor in order to get the best job done. In addition to the free timber marking service, there is also a free advertising advertising service provided by M.N.R. along with a sample cutting contract. The land- owner is invited to review the sample contract with the family lawyer to see which paragraphs to leave in or take out. In many cases, a written and signed contract will protect a landowner well, and assure the logging contractor of exactly what rights his company has bought and paid for. If you are thinking about having your woodlot marked for a commercial logging operation, operation, or to improve the stand, telephone the M.N.R. office closest to your woodlot to arrange an inspection date.

It was purchased and donated to the town for a hospital by the late J W. Alexander who owned the Dominion Organ and Plano Company, Bowmanvlllc's largest and most pros- porous Industry at the turn of the century, It was formerly called "South Park" the residence of lilt; late Hector liclth and his sisters, Misses Mary mid Agnes Bclth. The hospital officially opened on March 30, 1013 and was In use until after 1951 when the new hospital was opened. It was purchased by Powcl Chemical in 1052 and resold to the Hospital Board this year after Powell Chemical had constructed a now plant near Highway 401. Many present residents were born or treated in the old building and former nurses still in the area will recall the days when they lugged patients on stretchers up and down those stairs to the second floor, Soon, the town's first hospital will be only a cherished memory after serving this community community well, for many years, 'ieces ODDITIES -- We can't help thinking about that American tourist mentioned in last week's Magis- trate's Court. He was sitting at the Voyageur having a bite to cat when a chap alongside lifted up a dish and cracked it over the Americans head for no reason. The wound required several stitches.

About all he could say would be to throw up his hands and say "You'll never believe It!". t t t t ' t COINCIDENCE -- A couple of weeks ago, there was a short historical Item about a farm in Clarke Township that had been in the Chapman family for over 100 years. Orono's historian Charles T.

Altogether, Altogether, an amazing coincidence. ^ PROGRESS -- In The Statesman of 25 years ago, there is an item about town council passing a bylaw forbidding the wearing of topless bathing trunks by men. One of these days they may have to pass another similar one for women. Incidentally, Incidentally, we wonder if that bylaw for men has ever been rescinded. There are a great many lawbreak- ers about it it hasn't. • t t t t. t MANUAL -- Recently, the Editor received a complimentary complimentary copy of a new booklet published for 25c each by the Ontario Dept, of Lands and Forests.
