Adirondack Beaver 145 



extend the belt of dead timber. The shore line in these places shows 

 that the present high water level of the ponds has been constant prob- 

 ably for years. If therefore the dead wood were to be cut off — 

 and this could be best done in winter — the appearance of the ponds 

 would be improved, and the possible fire hazard removed. For out- 

 lying localities this might not prove feasible, but for ponds and 

 along streams which it may be particularly desirable to restore to an 

 attractive condition for the benefit of summer visitors, I see no great 

 difficulty.
