With the greatest despatch; what log to take first and next; what end to choke, etc. Teach the rigging slinger how best to set his lines to facilitate the yarding out of a certain section of timber. Teach the hook tender how to pick out donkey settings that will expedite and economize yarding operations with a minimum of work for the rest of the crew."
Very evidently, the work of instruction would be of a very practical nature. It seems that a great new field will soon be open to foresters, especially those who have had practical experience in the woods—a great opportunity to help the loggers themselves, to help the lumber companies, and to aid the government. Authorities say that education will do much to do away with the strikes that have so seriously prevented the scheduled shipments of timber so badly needed for airplane construction. We owe it to Uncle Sam to cut down as much as possible the cost of this airplane spruce, for which he is paying $130 per M.
It is more than probable that all the colleges of the Northwest will shortly initiate courses designed to fit young men for this practical teaching. The work promises to be unusually pleasant and profitable to those who are interested in logging or forestry.
