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 WATCH CHAINS At Half Price BURR, PATTERSON & CO.

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. ._ M ' :. t ,. - -- , ,. _ . . , a _ _ , i ,i - ~ t jj r{ tt R "'J 1.. n. .
