HUNTERS MEET GRIEF.
The District, Forester,' at Portland,
ure., announces : that the - rangers'
educational course, ' established last
year by the Forest Service, has just
started its second session, and will
funtinue until March 31.
In their work for Uncle Sam, the
rangers gain much practical, knowl
edge, but many of them have felt the
need of more intimate knowledge
or the technical side of forest work
This course was designed to meet twt
need. The instructors are ; the tech
nically trained men of the Portland
,.r: ru, fr ,
wiiu u?uve swcwyizea along
certain phases of (their 1 work;, the
teaching is done by means of lec
tures which are mimeographed and
sent out to the men in the field. The
tudying is done after the day's work
over, for nothing must be allowed
to interfere with official duties.
Last year the lectures were rather
general intone, and aimed to give the
rangers a broad view of the subject
ot torestry. This year, however, tho
lectures will , take up special sub
jects connected with' the actual work
of the service in the Pacific North
west. In this way methods of plant
ing and sowing, of timber appraisal,
characteristics of Northwest trees,
land classification, fire protection. I
lorest surveys, etc., will be covered
