TREES A GOOD CROP
Trees are just as much a crop
jas cotton or corn, and like these
.crops should be harvested when
mature, according to William K.
] Adams. Assistant Soil ttanserva
tionist. of the Soil Conservation
j Service in the Tar River Soil Con
jser^ntlon District' near l.ouisburg.
' In nearly all woodlands are
Hnature trees that dominate the
jstands, Adams points out. Ill most'
jcases they have not only ceased
growing but are deteriorating in
{quality and no longer making use
of the full capacity of t<he ground
to produce wood. These mature
trees usually slow up the growth
jof the surrounding younger trees
{considerably.
Cutting out' mature trees lib
erates the young trees, allowing
them to grow faster. The younp
; trees in a crowded woodland are
] like the children in an overcrow
ded tenement'. They are usually
'unhealthy and more susceptible
to disease. When the mature and
diseased trees are thinned out.
thin
the health and vigor <{f fht* young
saplings igjiniproved.
Howevel'. before cutting
trees in a woodland, Adams re- |
commends the drawing up a wood
land plan of cutting that out-lines
in advance the trees to be harves
ted. When the young trees are
cut or Hie stand is cut too heav
ily. tl)e woodland is weakened. A
good plan of cutting keeps a sup
ply of trees coining 011 all the |
time.
