Ways To Avoid hiEdew

Miss Callahan suggests home
makers not sprinkle clothes in
hot, humid weather until they
can follow through with the
ironing. Whenever clothes are
danpened before ironing, they
should be kept in cool place.
Plastic bags may be conven-

they are not ventilated. Mildew

The Big Six In Profitable
Timber Crop Production

These trees make up the Big
Six" in Ohio's native woodlands:
white oak, red oak, black wal
nut, white ash, tulip poplar and
sugar maple.
They command attractive
prices because of their lumber
value A woodland which con-
tains so percent or more of these
trees, either mature or young,
is a profitable one, according to
F. w Dean, Ohio State Univer-
sity extension forester.
Trees in a farm woods, like
cows in a dairy herd, should be
paying producers, not board
ers," Dean says. He suggested
farmers take an inventory of
their woods to check which trees
are productive and which are
non-productive.
A profitable woodland, the
forester points out, should pro-
duce at least four or five board
feet per tree per year, or about
250 to 300 board feet per acre
per year. Trees should be we'll
distributed, all ages and sizes
from two inches to mature trees
twenty-four to thirty inches in
diameter. A normal stand con-
tains 200 to 800 trees to the acre,
with fifty to seventy-five of saw
log size.
In addition TO the big Six" a
profitable woodland, Dean says,
might contain such varieties as
hickery, elm, cherry, beech, bass
wood and soft maple.
