ENEWING THE SHELTERBELT 





'." 



In cover figure the new generation of trees have grown for five years under 

 the old stand. Even shade-enduring trees, although getting a start, will not 

 make a satisfactory growth in the dense shade of other trees, consequently the 

 old stand should be opened up either gradually or at one operation.
