This gas pipeline right-of-way is maintained in permanent grass cover and provides habitat diversity and an edge effect desirable for many species of operates the Howard Nursery (Centre County), which produces and dis- tributes annually 3 million tree (most- ly conifer) and shrub seedlings. Management of forest land for wildlife can be compatible with man- agement for other forest resources, especially timber. The PGC is con- ducting research on State Game Land No. 176 (Centre County) to de- termine the effect of a profitable se- ries of systemized block cuttings on wildlife populations, especially cot- tontail rabbit and ruffed grouse. The idea is to create four distinct age classes of timber within a relatively small area and then repeat this pat- tern many times in a large area. Possible advantages are profit from timber, increased rabbit and grouse populations, spreading of the deer browsing pressure to lessen the ad- verse impact on tree regeneration, and increased populations of non- game species. Despite the generally good pop- ulations of wildlife species and the.
