ROTARY CLUB PLANTERS 



The Rotary Club of Lake Charlos. Louisi- 

 ana, for the last two years has had as one 

 of its activities the popular distribution of 

 trees in the city and parish. The first year 

 the club distributed some 350 trees, prac- 

 tically all live oaks. This spring the club 

 distributed about 1300 trees of various spe- 

 cies and the movement has met with a great 

 deal of favor. 



This practice was inaugurated by R. M. 

 Hereford, chairman of the tree committee 

 both seasons. It is now the intention to 

 install a tree planting nursery of some 

 three or four acres, securing seeds of va- 

 rious shade and nut trees for planting and 



also to secure small trees to be planted 

 in the nursery, where they will be permit- 

 ted to grow large enough for distribution. 



FREE GUIDE SERVICE IN PARKS 



From the Swiss Alps and the fjords of 

 Norway has come the germ of the nature 

 guide movement which is proving such an 

 attractive feature to the hundreds of thou- 

 sands of visitors to the National Parks. 

 The first experiments in nature guide work 

 in this country were conducted by the 

 California Fish and Game Commission in 

 Lake Tahoe resorts, California. In 1920 

 the nature guide service was commenced 

 in Yosemite National Park in co-operation 

 with the National Park Service and proved 

 tremendously popular with visitors. Over 

 27,000 visitors made use of the service, 

 which is given without charge of any kind. 

 In 1921 the Yosemite Nature Service 

 served over 50,000 visitors and somewhat 

 similar service was furnished visitors in 

 Yellowstone Park. This year the free 

 nature guide service will again be available 

 in Yosemite and Yellowstone Parks an4 

 will be installed for the first time in 

 Glacier National Park. The nature guides 

 give lectures and camp tire talks and con- 

 duct visitors on nature study field excur- 

 sions. -Anyone puzzled regarding birds, 

 animals, insects, wild flowers, trees, or 

 natural curiosities or features of the parks 

 may obtain information about these with- 

 out charge by applying to the park nature 

 guides. 



PROTECTION WEEK IN PENNSYL- 

 VANIA 

 Governor Sproul, of Pennsylvania, issued 

 a special proclamation urging the observ- 

 ance of Forest Protection Week through- 

 out the state, asking that the "Citizens of 

 the Commonwealth exercise the greatest 

 care with fire in or near woodlands during 

 this period of fire danger; that those citi- 

 zens whose occupation or movements re- 

 quire the use of fire in the woods take the 

 utmost precaution to prevent the spread of 

 fire; and that every citizen of the state 

 cooperate in eliminating the forest fire 

 evil, to the end that the Commonwealth may 

 enjoy a perpetual forest heritage and all the 

 blessings of prosperity that flow from it." 



NO ADVERTISING SIGNS IN CALI- 

 FORNIA'S FORESTS 



.'Advertising signs in the 17 National For- 

 ests of California have come down, fol- 

 lowing an order issued by the district for- 

 ester at San Francisco on January 27. 

 -Advertisements printed on rocks and trees 

 are also to be effaced. -According to the 

 regulations of the Forest Service of the 

 United States Department of -Agriculture, 

 such advertising is prohibited in all Na- 

 tional Forests without special permits, 

 which are seldom issued. The object of this 

 regulation is to prevent defacing the moun- 

 tain landscapes of the National Forests 

 with billboards and other unsightly signs.
