TREE PLANTING 



PRIVATE PLANTING 



This work was carried on in the same manner as in previous years. More 

 applications were received than could be filled and for work of this kind 602 

 separate persons received material for either commencing a new woodlot or for 

 improving their existing one. 



DEMONSTRATION PLOTS 



During the winter of the current year, municipalities were interested in 

 establishing demonstration plots, in order to bring before their local residents 

 the value of planting trees on non-agricultural land. Several hundred circulars 

 were distributed (under the caption "Municipal Demonstration Plots") to 

 township councils throughout southern old Ontario where work of this kind 

 would be most profitable. 



The following new plots were established during the spring planting season : 



Albemarle (East) — Bruce County 



Situated about one mile west of Colpoys Bay post office on the main road 

 north. A fifteen acre plot, seven of which were planted this year with 2,000 

 Scotch pine, 6,200 jack pine and 750 mixed hardwoods. 



Albermarle (West) — Bruce County. 



Situated one mile north of Red Bay school-house on the road to Howden 

 Vale. A five acre plot of light sand planted with 4,000 jack pine and 2,000 

 Scotch pine. 



Innisfil (Community Park) — Simcoe 



This plot forms a part of the township's 100 acre community park on the 

 shores of Lake Simcoe. The trees were planted on a part of a thirty acre block 

 bordering two roadways, set aside for demonstration purposes. This year there 

 were planted 2,500 Scotch pine, and 2,000 jack pine.
