County Agent’s News - Views r ' ■ Sixty per cent of .the-acreage of Orange county is in woodland. Since the war, the majority of timber has been cut, leaving a stand 'of mixed hardwood and some small pines: The problem wnfronting most farmers is” how to manage this cut over woodland containing a lgrge percentage of hardwood trees. The Crosse Lum ber company has arrived on~a 10 year experiment on a 40-acre cut over mixed hardwood forest by cutting the hard wood into cord wood and thinning the young able to harvest 8 V2 cords of wood and 588 board* feet of saw logs per acre, besides leaving on “the land saw logs equal to 1,000 board feet more than at the start. At the end of this 10-year period of selective cutting, the hardwoods were almost completely eliminated and the young growing pines were up to a thick stand. • Orange county farmers can learn hqyv this can be done on their farm by applying to the county farm agent’s office.
