M'MURRAV TO BE AT HEAD
Directing the fifth annual Michigan
land economic survey of the state de-
partment of conservation, Prof. K. C.
MlcMurxry of the geography depart-
ment, with several assistants from the
geography department will cooperate
with the survey. this summer in mak-
ing a rapid reconnaissance inventory
of the upper peninsula of th'e state.
The field work, which can be car-
1 ied on only under weather condi-
tions which have been found most fa-
vorable during the three summer
months, will consist of blocking in
forest, farm, and vegetation condi-
r tions, mapping and recording the lay
of the. land, streams, rivers, lakes,
o and other essential economic data,
",and will begin again this summer
under Professor McMurry shortly after
the close of the semester this June.
Maps Are Available
Seven counties have been mapped
in complete detail since the beginning
of the'undertaking five years ago,
and the first maps are now available
to the public at the conservatipn of-
fices at Lansing. These data have been
of much value in the work of the
conservation of the natural resources
of the state, the contention being am-
ply proved that such basic data has
been found invaluable in the develop-
ment of solutions to conservation
problems arising during the past two
decade. The University has cooperat-
ed in the init atio and the working
out of the mechanics connected with
the survey by furnishing men rom the
geography department for canying on
Sthe field work. The success of the
experiment resulted in the permanent
establishment of the survey as a
branch of the Department of Conser-
vation, and plans are now being made
for the formation of summer field
courses under the auspices of the ge-
* ography department of the University
in which graduate students would
make up at least part of the party.
If materialized, the plan will mark
a uni'lue step in the combination of
practical field work with the curri-
cula of the summer session, and
should serve as an attraction to ad-
vanced students in geography from
other universitiesgs well. How far
this Dlan will be successful lies in the
results of the work carried on during
the coming summer.
G; Outlook Is Bright
The present outlook for rapid pro-
gress in state conservation affairs in
Michigan is mlt brighter than could
have been anticipated even a short
time ago. The expansion in outlook
t has rised new problems and has ac-
S centuated old ones, and has demanded
a more specific and detailed knowl-
edge of land conditions in the north-
ern part of the state, which today are
comparatively unknown in regard to
accurate classification and mapping

of these conditions. State officials
agree that ,the best solution lies in
the expansion of the work of the
Land Economic Survey to such an ex-
tent that within a few years the whole
area of the state might be covered.
The diffculty to be met here, however,
is the prohibitive expense entailed,
even if it were possible to train and
hire the required personnel, and co-
operation from the geography depart- I
ment'of the University has presented
itself in furnishing the men to carry
out the work. Nothing of the kind has
been dons' before in this or any other
state, but it is believed that a tech-
nique for suchreconnaissance mapping
and classification can be developed. If
such a technique can be perfected, the
work of the survey will progress rap-
idly and valuable results may be ob-
taimed for large areas within a rela-
tively' short time.
This is the project which the Con-
servation Department has suggested
that the University be of aid in sup-,
plying the personnel. It is thereforej
necessary that the mechanical perfec-
tion of the technique of the survey
should be accomplished during the
coming summer in order that the
work may progress more rapidly
thereafter. The field expenses of these
men will be paid by the Department of
Conservation. Field work of this na-
ture, it is ?pointed out, will be of great
practical value in training profession-
al geographers, and at the same time
will provide valuable assistance to
the Department in the conservation of
the natural resources of the state.
