"The problem of Ontario s forests 

 surely demands prompt and mtelli- 

 eent treatment. Two thousand 

 wood-using industries depend upon 

 living forests for their raw ma- 

 teriafs. The power value of scores 

 of streams has been badly aftected 

 bv the burning of tree growth on 

 w-atersheds. It would seem far more 

 practical and sensible, even as a war 

 measure, to guard the foundations 

 of industrv and water powers from 

 needless racking by fire, than to 

 spend time and money on some ot 

 the more superficial concerns ot the 

 people. One-third of a cent per acre 

 has been demonstrated by the Que- 

 bec limit-holders' associations as 

 sufficient to cover the cost of lorest 

 guarding. This includes the build- 



Yale University Forest School 



NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT. U.S.A. 



YALE University Forest School js a 

 graduate department of Yale Uni- 

 versity. It is the oldest existing forest 

 school in tl*e United States and exceeds 

 any other in the number of its alumni. 

 A general two-year course leading to 

 the degree of Master of Forestry is o • 

 fered to graduates 9f universities col- 

 leges and scientific institutions of high 

 standing, and, under exceptional condi- 

 tions, to men who have had three years 

 of collegiate training including certain 

 prescribed subjects. Men who are not 

 candidates for the degree may enter the 

 school as special students, for work in 

 any of the subjects nflfered in the reg- 

 ular course, by submitting evidence that 

 will warrant their taking the work to 

 their own advantage and that ot the 

 School. Those who have completed a 

 general course in forestry are adniitted 

 for research and advanced work in 

 Dendrology, Silviculture, Forest Man- 

 agement, Forest Technology and Lum- 

 bering. The regular two-year course

ing of permanent equipment, such 

 as telephone lines, lookout towers, 

 rangers' cabins, and other essentials, 

 of which Ontario has very little. If 

 real protection of magnificent 

 spruce and pine can be obtained for 

 a third of a cent per acre, the losses 

 resignedly borne by Ontario year by 

 year would seem absolutely inex- 

 cusable."
