FORESTRY AT NEHASANE PARK 



685 



Table 2. — Number of trees per acre left in the hardwood type after the second 



cutting. 



[Based on 49 one-quarter acre plots, except the figures for reproduction which were 

 secured on 49 one hundred and sixtieth acre plots.] 



■ Totals do not include the amount of reproduction. 



The aesthetic requirements have been met as in the first cutting by 

 reserving belts of uncut timber beside lakes, streams, roads and on a 

 few conspicuous hills. 



TECHNICAL CRITICISMS OF THE FORESTRY PRACTICED AT NEHASANE 



PARK 



The simplest way of discussing the character and soundness of 

 the forestry work on the park is to take up in turn each of the various 

 criticisms which have been brought to the writer's attention by pro- 

 fessional foresters. It has been assumed that the object of the owner 

 is still as stated by Graves :^ "to cut as much timber as possible 

 without injuring the productive power of the forest." If the owner 

 were interested only in logging the present stand and did not desire 

 to practice forestry criticism of the management from the forestry 

 standpoint would be pointless.
