rience to manage these forests in "a
manner calculated to develop the high
est perfection, and yield an annual
crop Of timber which can be cut to adj
vantage. On this account DR.. Fernow,
who for many years was chief of the
forestry division of the department Of
agriculture, has earnestly advocated
the establishment of college of for
estry, and his efforts have at last been
rewarded. Such school has recently
been made a department of Cornell
University, and DR.. Fernow has been
installed as director thereof. The DEM
onstration school forest will consist of
10000 acres Of the Adirondack Reser-
walton, and here many Of the methods
practiced in Germany, where the
science is most highly developed, will
be taught. Under this system the
reckless destruction of the kings of the
forest which have been maturing for
hundreds Of years will be discouraged,
and instead younger trees will be cut
which can be spared with benefit to
those remaining, and. leave the forest
practically intact.
