of funds spent on their raising. In addition, game destroyed the same percentage
of the individual fences around the seedlings, so that when the expenses of
building the fences are added to the cost of raising seedlings, the resulting sum
was considerable. On the other hand, 55.9 per cent of individually fenced-off
poplar seedlings on an area of 39.44 hectares was destroyed by game, and so was


29.6 per cent of individually fenced-off willow seedlings on an area of 104.85
hectares. From this it can be concluded that poplar trees are more attacked by
game than willow trees, uneless this was a coincidence of poplar trees having
been planted in localities most haunted by game.
In contrast to this, collectively fenced-off areas, i. e. where larger tracts of
forest cultures and plantations were fenced-off, damage caused by game was the
smallest, averaging 25.5 per cent of the number of seedlings or the amount of
funds expended per hoctare on their raising.


The above summary data have on orientational and instructive character
for those cultivating forests and game in the same area, and concerning their
balanced ratio, although our investigations were carried out in hunting-forest
enterprises not in forest-hunting enterprises, where this ratio is as a rule balanced.
