A. Schoth, OSC agronomist, who reported these research re sults at the recent OSC grassland field day, says that although the one year's results are not enough (or definite pasture recommenda tions, they can bear directly on production and management of irrigated pastures after further tests are made. Th project, part of research to find out bow to obtain maixmuin profit from irrigate pastures, in cludes small-Dlot studies and ani mal grazing experiments. Kirst concluded year results were ooiameo irom mall-plot experiments, the pur pose of which was to screen out large numbers of treatments oe (ore the more expensive animal grazing trials. Schoth said the ex- total Of 185 pounds of nitrogen fertilizer was applied in four ap plications in VJj'i. Legumes were seeded in Mav 19.12 also. White and ladino clovers were clipped six times; birdsfoot trefoils, alfalfas and burnets four limes; and big trefoil three times during the season. AH plots re ceived three tons of lime and 60 pounds of phosiphate at seeding time. An application of iOD pounds gvpsum was made in the spring of 1953. , . A The project, Schoth explained, has demonstrated the value of knowing the various forage plants.

Field not always resulted in good, young tree slocking. Even where no part of the logged-off land is more than seed trees, scattered seed trees, or small group cutting, it is up to the landowner to plan for in ad vance.

I concerned about getting trees THESE TWO METHODS Of pro- back on nis timoer growing areas ducing more seed may not be per fect; but in general they are much belter than most of the for est management that is being done on our private woodlands. Maybe the answer on our ma ture forests on small woodlands is small group cuttings. The small group cuttings would probably be under five acres in size. Surround ing trees would furnish the neces sary seed. These small group cuttings would start in overmature or de fective concentrations. As new trees stall growing on the area that was logged, the adjoining seed source could be removed. This not only scatters the removal of your old growth over a period of years but insures a much better chance of getting reproduction started.
