FOREST BELTS. 



TLe forest belts at the Central Experimental Farm extend along its northern and 

 -western boundaries, the belt on the western boundary being 165 feet wide, and that 

 on the northern boundary 65 feet wide. Their total length is nearly 1| miles. The 

 nxunber of trees growing in these belts, including those in a separate plantation of 

 evergreens, is about 23,100. 



One of the principal objects for which the forest belts were planted was to obtain 

 information relating to the growth of the best timber trees, when grown on different 

 ■oils at different distances ajiart, in blocks of single species, and in mixed plantations.
