forests. 



Climbers are of infrequent occurrence and do little damage in consequence.

 SYSTEM OF MANAGEMENT.

management. The demand for poles has not been heavy, and dry and 



dead material has supplied all the demand for fuel. 



Latterly a few localized fellings have been opened on the east of the range, 

 but owing to the very bad seasons (except the season 1896-97) and the almost 

 total stoppage of timber sales, the experiment cannot be said to have had a fair 

 chance. Beyond this small move towards locating the fellings no sylvicultural 

 improvements were attempted. There have been no special works of improvement, 

 but further improvements are provided for in this plan. 



Grass and minor products have been and are sold on license or under lease, 

 whichever is more favourable.
