The Manitoba Forestry Branch reports a successful reforestation season aided by cool moist spring conditions. Hon. Sterling Lyon notes a 1965 goal of 3.5 million conifer seedlings with two thirds reached by May and potential completion this fall. About 1,000 acres were scarified and seeds sown, with 250 to 300 workers planting three year old stock from Hadashville. Seedlings included white and black spruce jack pine and red pine planted mainly in southern districts and Whiteshell areas. Some frost damaged stock from 1964 has partially recovered and is being planted where viable.
