NOTES AND COMMENTS 109 



National Forest, and Grazing Ranger Poore. These men arranged 

 for a lamb feed at the Elks' Lodge in Nevada City, Cal., a grazer 

 furnishing the "lamb." When the feed was over and the meat had 

 been pronounced excellent by all present they were informed that they 

 had eaten a young goat instead of a lamb. The occasion was then 

 improved to point out that throughout the country large numbers of 

 goats could be grazed on lands not utilized by other animals, provided 

 the present prejudice against goat meat could be overcome. If this 

 could be done nearly every sheepman could run a band of goats with 

 his herd, which would graze ground not touched by the sheep, open up 

 the brush patches where sheep and cattle do not enter, and in this 

 way increase the production and lower the price of meat. 



The following table, which appeared on page 467 of the Yale 

 Alumni Weekly for January 19 (Vol. XXVI, No. 18) shows the high 

 cost to the University of educating foresters as compared with train- 

 ing men for other professions. The figures are for Yale University 

 as follows : 



Graduate School : 346 students : $386 cost per student. 



School of Religion : 106 students : $573 cost per student. 



Medical School : 58 students : $2,000 cost per student. 



Law School : 119 students : $428 cost per student. 



Art School: 49 students: $550 cost per student. 



Music School: 99 students: $375 cost per student. 



Forestry School: 25 students: $1,200 cost per student. 



Of this $1,200 only 10 per cent is covered by tuition and other fees.
