The institutions including universities, agricultural colleges, ranger schools, 

 academies, and boys' schools, which confine their work in forestry to ranger 

 courses, short courses, or special forestry subjects in courses in agriculture, etc., 

 do not permit of accurate classification. The amount and character of the work 

 is extremely variable in the different institutions. In some the subjects offered 

 are highly specialized in some particular field of forestry, as illustrated in the 

 course in forest ecology in the University of Chicago; in others to a ten days' 

 course in popular forestry, as in the Sharon Summer School of Forestry and 

 Horticulture. 



The following, however, is an attempt to classify these institutions in refer- 

 ence to the courses offered and their length. Nine institutions which offer a four- 

 year undergraduate course also offer ranger courses or training. Where such is 

 the case, the name of the institution appears in Table III as well as in one of 

 the other of the previous tables.
