This is to be reproduced by the method
of successive Trimmings. The picture

heavy trimmings A period of ten to
twenty years elapses between the first
thinning (see the first cut and the

lings. 1t is q good method for those
owners who do not wish to cut their
woods clear at one time, but prefer
gradually to transform them into
new and thrifty crop Of desirable trees.
The method of successive Trimmings Is
also applicable to stands of such kinds
of hard woods as bear heavy seed,
like hickory and oak, because the seed
will then be dropped In abundance all
over the ground, whereas, If the land
is cut clear. the seed must be brought
by animals. and longer time will be
required for reproduction.
This method is well suited to tracts
belonging to water companies, where
constant forest cover Is required for
the protection of the watershed 1t
may be used also by owners Of country
estates who maintain woodlands as
parks, and therefore prefer, as soon as
the woods become mature, to have

them cut gradually rather than all at
once. After the first thinning young
growth of new seedlings and sprouts
from the stumps of the old trees will
come In. AS soon as the ground Is well
covered with this young growth the
remaining trees can be removed in sew
eral successive cuttings, stretched over
period of ten to fifteen years. This
method Is particularly applicable to
hard wood stands which are relatively
even aged, like old sprout woods sixty
to eighty years old.
The woodsman would make the cut
tings in the following way: In the first
thinning he would take out the dead,
dying and defective trees Defective
trees include those having frog stools
or canker scars on their trunks, hollow
trees, those partly girdled at the base
by fire, those whose trunks have been
attacked by borers, top dry trees and
those badly broken or bent by ice and
snow. Suppressed trees and those
crowding more thrifty trees are also
cut, just as in Improvement cuttings.
Very small trees are cut because they
are usually suppressed so badly that
they would never recover, and Ii Is
therefore better to remove them and
make way for a new crop. The largest
crowned trees are also cut, because
later on they would injure the new
Seeding underground much more than
the trees with smaller crowns. The re-
moval of all these classes of trees
would take away about 30 per cent OF
an average second growth hard wood
stand and leave about l25 to 100 trees
per acre.
The woodsman would make the sec
ond thinning as soon as the young
growth is well established and begins
by retarded height growth to show the
need of more light. In the second thin
ming some small growth would neces-
sarily be broken, but with care the
damage would be very slight and I'M
doubleday would be remedied by new
growth from seed of the trees still
standing. The young growth might be
so far advanced at the time of the sec
ond thinning out that the whole stand
could be clea red. On the other hand it
might be desirable to make { third
thinning before the removal of the
last old trees.
