Summer Course in Forestry and 
Nature Study 
oe Department of Forests and 
Waters announces its third sum- 
mer extension course in forestry and 
nature study which will be given at 
the Pennsylvania State Forest School, 
Mont Alto, Pa., from June 23. to 
August 1. The course covers 6 weeks, 
and is offered for the _ benefit ' of 
teachers, school supervisors, scout- 
masters, and other lovers of the out- 
of-doors. 
The Forest School has an excellent 
equipment for teaching Forestry and 
Nature Study. Bordering the school 
is a forest of 23,000 acres and a 
forest tree nursery with an annual 
output of more than four million 
small forest tree seedlings. 
The school forest is equipped with 
forest fire observation towers, tele- 
phones, good roads, and numerous 
trails. Within a short distance of the 
school are extensive areas of old fields 
in which have been planted many 
different kinds of pine, spruce, oak, 
ash, and other important forest trees. 
In many ways the forest resembles 
the well managed forests of Europe. 
There is also a sawmill and a stave 
mill connected with the school, and on 
the State Forest is a timber cutting 
project in operation which produces 
40 cords of wood each day. 
Within ten minutes’ walk of the 
school are more than 100 native woody 
plants, and a variety of wild life is 
plentiful in the nearby woods. | In 
numerous mountain clearings within a 
short distance of the school can be seen 
daily as many as 40 deer in a group. 
Authorities on nature study work 
state that no other nature study 
course within the State offers such 
direct contact with natural objects 
through field studies and out-of-door 
excursions. This outdoor equipment 
adds much to the course, and being 
located in a beautiful forest park im- 
mediately adjacent to the school pro- 
vides many recreational facilities which 
make the outdoor life very attractive. 
Accommodations for the students tak- 
ing the summer course can be arranged 
for at a well equipped local camp.
