Winter Is Time To
Clean Up Woodlands

Winter is the time for timber own
ers to clean up their woodlands, says
State Forester Joseph F. Kaylor. Not
only is it much easier to take out TIM
Der when the trees are free of foliage,
but the farmer-owner usually has
some free time on his hands in the
winter months that can profitably be
devoted to improvement of his tree
crop.
The aim should be Kaylor states, to
take out the less valuable tree species,
to be worked up into fuelwood or pulp
wood, and to leave a healthy young
growing stock of the more valuable
kinds. Additional value and faster
growth of the remaining stand will
accrue from the operation. The De-
partment of State Forest and Parks
urges timber owners to consult it in
regard to their problems, and to re-
ceive, without cost, expert advice and
assistance.
