FORESTRY RESERVE IN SEVEN MTS,
Brief Account of Work Being Done Locally
by the State Department by Forester
Ludwig.
It may not be generally known and
appreciated by the people of Centre
county, but it is a fact nevertheless,
that the State Forest Raserve border-
ing on the southern part of the coun-
Ly is one of the best in the state. It
comprises about 23 000 acres and con-
tains some of the best 'second-growth
timber to be found anywhere. No
fires of any extent have occurred for
eight or ten years and the possibilities
of second-growth timber are here ad-
mirably shown. Fire is the arch
enemy of our forests in Pennsylvania
and destroys in a few hours the
growth of as many years,
The extreme south-western part
of this Reserve contains many
abandoned farm fields. These are
unfit for agriculture and are being
planted up with White Pine ( Pinus
Btrobus ) as rapidly as possible, In
1910 there were planted 99,400—2 year-
oid seedlings and this spring ( 1911)
there were planted 506,600 seedlings.
These seedlings ranged from six to
fifteen inches long and were obtained
from the State Narsery at (Greenwood
Furnace, Huntingdon county. They
were spaced 4x4 feet, making about
2700 trees to the acre. Ia all, about
114 acres of abandoned farm fields
were so treated, The operations
covered a period of about three weeks,
beginning with the latter part of
Ap:il and ending about the middle of
May. Besides the colebrated * Bear
Meadows,’ known to every Ceantre-
countian, received some altention,
their having been planted 2000
willow catliogs ia the swamp as an
experiment in the reclamation of it,
Chis Reserve also contains some
areas of Serub Oak which present a
diflicault problem in manage.
ment. The Known of these
“ Bald Kaob " lying south of Boals-
burg and reputed to be the highest
point in Centre county. The only
way to determine how to treat such
areas ie to make experimental planta-
tions of different species uuder the
Berub Oak. Taere are two experi.
menial plantations on the south slope
of ** Bald Kaob, " one of Honey Lo-
cust and the other of White Pine.
Next year, it is hoped to make ad.
ditional plantations,
Improvement work for the coming
sammer include the buildiog of a
road thru the Raoserve, the improve-
ment of existing roads and fire trails
aad the carrying out of some experi-
mental work.
The Department of Forestry is en-
gaged in a work for the peoples and
therefore, desires the general public
to know more about Pennsylvania's
Forest Policy. Ths Forester for this
Reserve is located at Boalsburg and
will be glad to answer inquiries and to
explain to anyone interested in the
policies of this department.

Worm Damaging Corn,
This account of a new pest appeared
in the Lewistown Democrat and Sen-
tinel :
A new worm unknown to farmers
is committing considerable bad work
in the newly planted corn fields,
through this section, The worm at-
tacks the seed in the ground, eating
out the heart of the kernel and then
sitacks the stalk, which quickly dies,
A number of farmers have been com-
pelled to practically replant their en
tire fields, Bome have soaked the
seed corn in poison, hoping thus to
prevent the ravages of the worm, but
with no success,
