FORESTRY CLUBS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE 17 
DECEMBER 
Market logs and other material cut from farm woodland. 
If the woods under study or the land belonging to any club member is growing 
a heavy crop of young conifers, they can be thinned for Christmas trees. Before 
the trees are sold, each should be marked to show it has been properly cut. 
Make a survey of the year’s work. Each member should make a report of the 
work he has done. 
Take photographs of winter forests and wild life. 
Make plans for next year’s work. 
Tree study—identify trees by their bark.
