Taken on Perrini Ranch in Lake County where an excellent stand of soft chess was obtained from reseeding after fire. This species is well adapted to poor sites. On the better sites, and particularly above 2,000 feet elevation, perennial grasses did well. RESEEDING CHAMISE BRUSHLANDS When chamise brush has been removed by burning or disking:, reseed- ing to desirable forage species is advised (Figure 11). The new grasses furnish forage for the deer in winter and spring; help protect the soil against erosion; and provide compel il ion to the many brush seedlings that come after fire (Schultz and Biswell, 1952; Schultz <l al., 1955). in oilier words, t lie grasses aid in opening' dense brushlands. The grasses also may be useful for a reburn if necessary. The County Farm Advisor should be consulted for advice on which species to reseed on each site. Several annual and perennial species were used in Lake Countj with good results. On the poorest sites, soft chess (Bromus mollis) proved particularly useful and on the better sites, and above 2,000 feet, Bardinggrass (Pharlaris tuberosa), perennial ryegrass (Lolium per- i ma i, and tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) did well. In some areas Legumes may prove useful (Love and Jones. 1952). In general, seedings made about the middle or latter part of Sep- tember, shortly before the start of fall rains, were the most successful. Seedings made in the spring or summer after spring burns were not as successful as those made in late summer or early fall. Seedings made in February were complete Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Califo
