STUDY THE FORESTS.
Thirty-nine Young Graduates Have
Received Appointments.

WASHINGTON, Aug, 29.--Thirty-
nine young graduates OF nine Amcri-
can Forest Schools have lately rcceiv-
ed appointments as Forest Assistants
in the Forest Service and have been
assigned to positions for the present
field season The new appointees
are drawn from the various Forest
Schools as follows: Yale, l8; Biltmore,
s; University Of Minnesota, 4; Uniyer-
sity of Michigan, 4; Michigan Agri-
cultural College, 3; Harvard, 2; Cor
nell, /; University Of Iowa, !, and I'm
iversity Of Nebraska, l. They have
secured their appointments as re-
suit OF passing the regular Civil Ser
vice examination, which is the only
avenue to employment as a forester
under the Govrnmnt. In addition to
these graduates Of Forest Schools,
fifteen other candidates passed the ex-
animation.
twenty-five Of the new appointees
are already atwork on various Ma
tional Forests, taking parting in this
administration, and seventeen have
been assigned to different projects
connected with the technical study OF
silviculture Forest Assistants are
men who have completed their preli-
minary training for the profession Of
! forestry, as the graduates of law OF
medical school have completed theirs
and are ready to enter on practical
work. Until they have gained exper
ience in their work, however, their
positions are necessarily subordinate
/ They are at the foot OF the ladder and
must prove their fitness in order to
mount higher. The Government pays
them $1,000 year at the start.
On the National Forests the Forest
Assistant often acts as adviser to the
! Supervisors in charge, who are wes-
tern men experienced in all practical
matters, but usually without school
training in the science Of forestry o.
they may be assigned to the study Of
some particular problem which needs
to be Investigated in the interest Of
good forest management. AS forestry
means knowing how to get the most
out of any given piece of forest land,
it calls for studies and experiments
both scientific and practical, much like
those which have to be made in the in
terest Of good farm management, and
the Forest Assistant Is prepared to do
valuable work along this line.
There is a growing interest in the
