TABLES FOR PARTIAL CLEARANCES 175 



TABLE OF CLEARANCES. Average soil and situation. 



Care must be taken not to allow the introduction of grass 

 and weeds. Underplanting must of course not be attempted. 



Beech may have the first partial clearance made when 

 about 50 years of age. It will often be found at the end of 

 the rotation that there is a certain amount of natural 

 regeneration. In such a case it will often be advantageous to 

 leave it and form a mixed wood by artificially introducing 

 other species.
