Duffield was one of several speaKers at a two-day short course sponsored jointly by the Northwest Forest Genetics as sociation 'and OSC. A seed orchard. Bent Gerdes of Manning Seed company. Seattle, said is composed of trees which have been grafted with "outstanding ' trees. This type of orchard cannot be expected to be in production for at least 10 years in the Pacific Northwest. Hardy Treej Trees wi.ti heavy branches, crooked leaders, excessive taper or diseases and slow growers will be tossed out. Only hardy trees will be selected for seed orchards. Superior a?ed can be obtained from a seed orchard, said Robert j Z. Callaham of the Institute of j Forest Genetics at Placerville, Calif. This is because selection of trees can be more discriminat-1 ing. One problem would be isola- j tion so stray pollen from un- j selected trees would not hinder the better-trees program. Duffield sees no reason why entirely new and superior types of forest trees cannot be de veloped in the future. Agricul ture has done well with plant breeding and forestry should be able to do as well with trees, he said. II - VA Ak- y rir for a fu,,y r l.iv automatic JB ; ,p aiaimAnnwrarv i .
