Northumberland 



During the spring season the following trees were planted : — 



White Pine 47,000 



Scotch Pine 25,000 



Red Pine 25,000 



Jack Pine 53,000 



Elm 12,025

During the summer one mile of fire line was stumped and cultivated, and 

 one and one-half miles of fence erected. 



As this property is situated in a well known berry-picking area there is 

 considerable danger of fire during berry season. This necessitates additional 

 patrolling. One fire occurred this year, just off the forest property, but was 

 quickly controlled.
