It is suggested too, that each forestry project committee, 

 in addition to others, should always include representatives 

 of the County Agent, the Soil Conservation Service, the 

 government land management agencies, the State Forestry 

 Itepartment, the State Fish and Game Department, and other 

 agencies which can provide direct assistance. These people 

 are also aware of many sources of additional outside help 

 and advice . 



PROPOSED PROJECTS 



Before considering specific forestry projects for a given 

 area we should briefly review all aspects of "forestry" to 

 alert us to the many combinations which will become apparent. 

 For example, a logging operation may be carried out with the 

 thought in mind of providing big game cover for a number of 

 years, of producing forage for domestic livestock for awhile, 

 or providing winter trails for snowmobiles . Plantings might 

 be used as windbreaks, as future sources of posts or poles, 

 as screening and beautification. 



Forestry of course is based on trees, and in our 

 management of the forests, multiple-use will be our concern, 

 and water, forage, wildlife, and recreation will be considered 

 along with the direct benefits derived from trees. Such a 

 review includes the following points.: 



Trees ; Hold soil, prevent soil erosion; slow surface
