A Problem to Face.
Yesterday's session of the Academy
of Science was opened by a paper on
"A State Natural History Survey," pre-
pared by Prof. Spaulding and read by
Prof. Newcombe.
In opening, he spoke of the interest
taken in the surveys by the states of
the south and west. The states of
those sections are charaoterized by the
most generous views and are providing
surveys to include all classes.
"That we do not know about our
plants and animals is a bold fact. Are
we producing nothing good enough for
which 'the public money ought to be
expended? In Michigan we have a
specific problem facing us, that of pro-
teting wha Stine we have left and the
land now laid waste.
The pine belt of Michigan was at
one time one of the noblest growing on
any continent. It did not grow in a
day, but took at least 200 years to come
to maturity. When the lumberman be-
gan his harvest he had before him nre-
sources w'hich had acumulated through
ages. By him it was transformed into
a new form of wealth. The prosperity
of this state has been largely due to its
forests. Has it not an obligation then
resting upon it to -take up the question
of forest reserves?
In New York pros isiot has beer, made
for forestry experimentation to be car-
ried on by Cornell University. For this
purpose an appropriation and 25,000
acres of forests in the Adirondack re-
gion have been granted. 'Wisconsin and
For, Forty Years

Minnesota are also earnestly taking np
similar questions.
Michigan ought to have a com issi on
which would try to ind a way to re-
store the for( sts. The taking up of
such praltical problems will not hinder
theoreticol work in the laboratory.
There ire three things which we
aught to have to aid the work, vii.:
There ought to iie an extensive collec-
tion of Epecial books easily available.
(2) The state should publish anything
that would add to our knowledge of our
plants and animals. (3) We should
constantly aim at spesalization and co-
operation."
Owing to the many other conferences
in session at that hour the le,'tare was
not very well attended.
Joint Session.
There was a joint session of the Clas-
sical Conference and the Schoolmasters'
Club yesterday morning at t o'clock.
President E. C. Goddard, of the School-
roasters' Club, presided.
The two main papers of the meeting
were read by Geo. B. Aiton, of Minne-
apolis, 'nd Prof. C. H. Moore, of the
University of Chicago. The former
spoke on "Principles Underlying the
Making of Courses of Study for Second-
ary Sch'ools." The subject of Mr..
Moore's paper was "The Enrichment of
the Classical. Course in Secondary
Schools."
