No. 3 



Report of the Department of Lands and Forests for 1950 



working plans of municipal forests was continued. Mapping has also progressed so 

 that about two-thirds of the major areas are covered, using a revised method. 



The regulated crop cut was allocated in one forest. Similar control is nearing 

 completion in all municipal forests. A system of sustained thinnings in plantations 

 was formulated for the above area, while the field surveys for this phase on other 

 forests are planned for completion during the coming year. 



Approximately two thousand cords of pulpwood thinnings were taken from 

 municipal forest plantations and sold to pulp and paper companies. 



The department now operates nineteen planting machines for municipal forest 

 planting. The following tables furnish details of tree distribution:
