FrRox THE AMERICAN AGRIcuLTuRIsr.l
Hints on Clearing Woodlands.

While fully endorsing the repeated protests OF
the Aoyiculturast against the universal destruc-
t;o,of forest trees it is to be admitted that there
aretimes whenwoodlands should be cleared
farmer may keep, on an average, one-sixth ofhis
land permantely in timber, and yet clear OF
portion every ten or fifteen years.
1t is often recommended to cut out only the
old and decaying trees in wood-lot, leaving the
Younger to grow and fill their place. But ex-
perience has now pretty well shown that the best
way is to cut off the entire growth at once, clean
and smooth and then let the trees sprout up again
from the roots, or from new planting In cutting
out large trees the smaller are inevitably broken
or injured, and in the comparative shade, few
young trees spring up. 1t is believed that
greater amount of fuel can be gotin given time
from an acre Of land entirely cleared at once than
from one merely culed of its large trees. 1t has
been found that wood-lots should be cut over
once in fifteen to twenty years. For the two or
three years next after cutting, the lot should be
fenced in, to prevent cattle from browsing down
the Young shoots. Care should be taken, also, to
prevent fires from spreading into such lots
Land SO managed will yield from eighteen to
twenty cords of good wood per acre, at each
cutting.
1t is important to cut trees close to the ground,
whether the land is to be permanently cleared up
or only stripped for the time of its trees The
best wood is often nearest the earth. If the field
is to be titled, teams can work better among low
stumps than high ones and if the trees are to
grow up again, the sprouts will grow more vig-
orously from short stumps than long ones, and
be less likely to be blown off at the base by the
wind.
Now then, in this month Of December is the
best time for doing this part of teamwork. Now,
while the snow is light, and the cold not intense
the trees can be cut closer to the ground than
when the snow is deep, and the small limbs and
brush can be more easily gathered and saved.
