Charles R. Ross, OSC extension forestry specialist, says government and private seed dealers are lookking for tree seed this year as never before. With plas for stepped up reforestation work, nurseries are looking for more seed. That, coupled w ith a few lean seed gathering years has placed a premium on certain forest seeds. Wanted particularly are cones bearing seeds of Douglas fir, hem lock, Port Orford cedar and white fir. From one well established de aler in the state, the forestry specialist has obtained thf follow ing price information. On a per bushel basis, Douglas f ir cones are worth 75 cents to $1.50. Hem lock cones are worth $2.50 per bushel; Port Orford cedar $5; and white f ir from $1 to $2. There is also market for sugar pine cones. Ross points out that all the seed gathering opportunities are not in the mountains. Any yard and pasture trees are excellent cone sources. The white f ir species wanted are Ables concolor and Abies brandis. Ross suggests that cone gatherers check w ith market out- lets to make sure they have the desired strain of white fir before picking large quantities. In most cases dealers are w illing to call at farms to purchase cones. And, here's an adde tip on where to look.
