Professor Austin Cary, of the Division of Forestry, gave a very interesting lecture on "The Nature and Prospects of the Profession of Forestry," in the Lecture Hall, of Robinson Hall, last evening.

Professor Cary compared the advanced and enterprising methods of forest training and restocking in Germany, where the timber lands are, for the most part, owned and controlled by the government, with the reckless and destructive methods adopted in this country. In Germany the forests are continually watched by trained and highly educated men and, in certain districts, the future growths are rockoned for 150 years in the future. The lack of foresight displayed in this country offers great opportunities for technically trained men who are willing to sacrifice physical comforts to the hardy life of a forester, and it is toward this end that our schools of forestry are doing national good.
