In general, all the species which are advised as suitable for reforesting in Penn- sylvania are light-demanding species, with the possible exception of white pine, Norway spruce, black birch, and beech. These species will endure a moderate amount of shade on good soil, particularly Norway spruce and beech. AGE AND SIZE OF PLANTING STOCK. The age and size of plants used depend on the type of land to he planted and the species selected.

The rule is, the larger the seed- lings, the greater the planting cost. Adverse planting conditions requi
