A well stirred-up seedbed and a nearby seed source are required for the natural regeneration of Douglas-fir. When these clear-cut patches are covered with young trees, other patches will be cut. In a few decades the whole landscape will have a new crop of vigorous young timber. 4. Despite the esthetic advantage of getting the new crop under the old, some types of forests can be regenerated only in the open and preferably on a stirred-up seedbed. This is similar to sowing grain on a well-tilled field, and it greatly increases the chances that the area will reproduce promptly to an attractive new forest. Failure to create a stirred-up site may perpetuate a brushfield and indefi- nitely delay starting a new forest. There is a beauty in the rebirth of an even-aged forest. The openings are only temporary. Signs can be placed to let the public know that a new forest is on its way. 5. Foresters should use the principle of variety by striving to re- generate a mixture of trees in areas of greatest public viewing interest, as along roads. Mixed forests have greater seasonal varia- tions, greater wildlife habitat value, and greater safety from hazards such as fire, climate, and pests, as well as greater attractiveness. 6. Removal of slash—tops and limbs of harvested trees—along travel routes and from public-use areas is usually good fire insurance and always an aid to natural beauty. 10
