Cincinnati authority, because a few

hardened callus loosens so 1t can be
lifted of, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle Of freezone costs very

crowded stands just the opposite Is
true; height growth is less; the lower
branches continue to live, increase in
size, and form large knots; and there
is much greater taper in the trunks
of the trees. 1t is evident, therefore,
that trees In the wood lot should be so
crowded that the crown or top of each
individual tree may be in contact with
those of its nearest neighbors. A
crowded stand of trees produces not
only larger number but also great
er proportion of high quality sawlOgs
than an uncrOwded stand of an equal
area. This is of vital Importance, be-
cause the price of logs Of first quality
Is usually from one and one-half to
two times as much as that paid for
logs of poor quality.
