4. DEMONSTRATION PLOTS 



This name is applied to any publicly-owned piece of waste land in close 

 proximity to a travelled road. This land is owned or purchased expressly 

 for the purpose of showing the public in any municipality what may be done 

 for their community by tree planting. These areas may vary in size from one 

 to twenty-five acres. A sign which can be seen from the road is placed on 

 the property and states that the planted area is a demonstration plot and 

 that it is supervised by the Forestry Branch. 



50 plantations were inspected and advice given when needed to the 

 various municipal owners. 



Several plantations of red pine were badly infested with sawfly and a good 

 deal of damage was done. Control methods which were applied were hamper- 

 ed by lack of equipment. 



Up to date the total number of plots established is 113. 



The following list shows the number of trees planted on demonstration 

 plots during the spring of 1935.
