Tree farms are providing the people of this region with twin crops-timber and game, according to W' D. Hagenstein, industry forester. I)eer, elk and bcar seem to thrive in young growing forests where there is plenty of grass and feed growing between the young tinrber. There is nr>t much game on <lld growth forests because there is n<l feed.

Thc first big garne harvest data for the over three million acres of West Coast Tree Farms lying west of the Cascades in Oregon and Washington has just been gathercd for 1949. During 1949, sorne 53,705 hunters lrarvested 4,5(r5 dcer, 1,109 elk and 132 bear fronr these far flung tree farms.

While the first objective of tree farm ownership is ttr grorv timber for this region's principal indttstry, the mere fact that timber is growing means also that game will bc founrl there in the young timber. As tirrrber harvesting progresses on tree farms therc is a noticcaltle increase in deer and game population bccause nrore of the land area is in young growing trees and relievcd of the burden of carrying the old, ripe old-growth.

A well-balanced tree farm will have er;ual portions of timber of evcry age from secdlings to mature timber, points out W. D. Hagenstein. As each block of timber becomes ripe it is harvested and the land soon is growing a new crop of trees. A crop of pulp wood can be grown in from 25 to 4O years, but it takes from 75 to 100 years to grow trees large enough for sawlogs.

Hagenstein said land owners were generally glad to allow the general public the privilege of hunting on tree farms, but at times, because of dangerous fire weather, huters must be kept out.

Most hunters on tree farms observe rules of safety with fire and are careful with the property of these taxpaying timber growers.
