Indian Forester. June 1918

1918

Moreover from the fact that it requires a fierce burning of the ground for its success it admits of a certain amount of selective extraction as a preliminary process and does not necessarily require the removal by the logger of a number of species which for the present may be classed as valueless for timber though useful in helping the burning of the ground. [...] When the fact is fully realized that the Forester's life is more arduous and lonely than the average the Department will get better leave and pension rules meanwhile the Department ought to bring home to Government the desirability of separating the Scientific from the Commercial side and let sleeping dogs lie as regards the personnel. [...] In the first place the policy of Government as enunciated in their order on the Forest Committee's report is opposed to the maintenance of fuel planations by the Forest Departmept for the reason that the estalishment of such plantations may be safely left to private enteprise. [...] The pompous and empty secretariat phrase " The policy of Goverment as enunciated " and so on is a dreadful example of how an ignorant bureaucracy treats matter of the greatest importance for the welfare of the population of the country. [...] In some of the forests worked under the method of coppice-with-standards in North Mangalore Division the percentage of Kiralbhogi growth is not so much as it was before and in the absence of adequate staff the only method left for its propagation is to carry on broadcast sowings throughout the coupe in the year in which a coupe is felled.
