io Courses in Forestry 



SPECIAL WORK IN ALLIED SUBJECTS 

 ENGINEERING J fax- , 



Surveying, Course 4. Use of Instruments. -Pou* hours, first 



semester. Professor DAVIS and Mr. MERRICK. 

 Largely field work in which the student acquires the ability 

 to use different surveying instruments with reasonable 

 / precision. 



^r Topography, Course 5. Transit and stadia, plane table and 

 camera. Field work and drawing. Four hours, second 

 semester. Professor DAVIS and Mr. MERRICK. 

 In this course the student learns to do regular survey work 



yand map making. 

 Mechanical Engineering, Course . Boilers and steam en- 

 gines. Two hours, first or second semester. Professor 

 ALLEN. 



Hydraulic Machinery, Course . Four sections. Two 

 hours. Professors M. E. COOLEY and ALLEN, Assistant 

 Professor F. M. DUNLAP, Mr. JACKSON, and Mr. BRAGG. 

 These courses in Mechanical Engineering are intended to 

 acquaint the student with the principles and practice in the use 

 of mechanical devices, such as are used in moving heavy and 

 bulky materials, and have come into use so extensively in mod- 

 ern logging. Plans are forming for a course specially outlined 

 to meet the requirements of forestry students and mis course 

 may be looked for in the year 1905-1906. 



In addition to the above courses it is expected that special 

 lectures will be delivered presenting expert knowledge of certain 

 important phases of Forest Engineering. 



BOTANY 



9. Morphology and Classification of Fungi. This course deals 

 with morphology, classification, life-history and economic 

 A/\/lr*~ relations of fungi. Students collect and identify material, 

 and become acquainted with the most important literature 

 on the subject. Forestry students elect this course as a 

 four hour course and give special attention to the relation 

 of fungi to forest growth. Three or more hours; hours to 

 be arranged. Dr. POLLOCK. 



Experimental Physiology. A study of the relation of plants 

 to their environment as manifested by the phenomena of 

 nutrition, growth, and irritability. ioa, three hours; lob, 

 five hours. Lectures, Tu, Th,' at 8. Room 12, U. H. Lab- 

 . oratory work, mostly afiernoons. Professor NEWCOMBE. 



? jf 12. Field Ecology. The identification of trees, shrubs, and her- 

 baceous plants, and their grouping into societies ; >he rela- 

 tion of plants to -ight, soil, moisture, and the general fac- 

 tors in the environment. Two hours. Dr. BURNS. 

 4. Economic Botany. Relation of the science of botany to in- 

 dustry. Distribution of plants of commercial importance,
