  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Map of Cascade National Forest The Cascade National Forest was first withdrawn from the public domain in 1893 and set off under its present name in 1911. It has an area in public lands of over 1,000,000 acres, being about 1/3 larger than the state of Rhode Island. Roughly, it extends from McKenzie Pass on the north to Cowhorn Moutain on the South, and to Mount June and Reserve on the West. It includes practically all the head waters of both the McKenzie and Willamette Rivers. Some idea of the investment value may be gained from these figures--the gross income from this forest for fiscal year, 1929, was $137,000; part of which is paid to Oregon and Lane County for road and country purposes, and the balance used in protecting and developing the forest. The Reserve now has 858 miles of trails and 802 miles more of "ways" or rougher trails used in fire protection. It contains 105 miles of road built at a cost of $245,000; and has 550 miles of telephone. Primarily, the Cascase National Forest is a great reserve of timber, water and forage. But its secondary purpose, as a place of recreation, is growing in importance very rapidly. The men who administer the forest have a high sense of public service, and the traveler will almost invariably find the Forest Service man to be both well informed and eager to be of assistance.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Grundtvig Folk High School Of all the Danish schools the ones which have received the greatest consideration by American agricultural leaders are the Peoples (or Folk) High Schools. These originated with the thought and vision of N.F.S. Grudtvig, bishop, historian, and teacher who was beginning his great work a little less than a century ago. Their educational aim is "to give clear notions of the civic community and the conditions of its welfare, an appreciation of the national character and the ability to express one's thoughts with ease and vigor, freedom and propriety." Five months' courses for men are given in the winter and three months' courses for women in the summer. Some technical training is given. With this the young men and women, for two generations, have been getting a vision of rural life in all of its fullness and an appreciation of the value of unselfish service. It was in 1856, on Bishop Grundtvig's 70th birthday, that a wealthy party in Copenhagen presented him with equipment for the fourth school to be established and developed under his personal direction. This school was located at Lynby. It is fairly typical of the 79 High Schools and Agricultural Colleges which have an annual total enrollment of 8100 students.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Monument to Hudson Year: 1900 On a high point of land in the northern part of the City, overlooking the Hudson River there stands a beautiful monument erected to the memory of Henry Hudson. It is a marble column in the Doric pattern, rising to a height of 100 feet. Eventually it is to bear on its top a statue of Hudson himself. The monument was erected on Spuyten Duyvil hill in 1909 during the Hudson-Fulton celebration to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the voyage of the Half Moon up the Hudson and the 100th anniversary of the first voyage of Robert Fulton's steamer Clermont up the river in 1807, marking the beginning of steam navigation. The spot is said by some to mark the scene of a fight between Hudson's men and the Indians. However that may be, it is undoubtedly near an old Indian village, for there are still large heaps of shells, marking the scene of many a primitive Sherry, Churchill, or Delmonico feast. Spaces are left on the monument for explanatory tablets, but at present there is nothing to tell the visitor who happens upon it what it is. It stands out in a little open, park-like spot, surrounded by some of the most beautiful secluded homes of New York's millionaires. Of the man Hudson we know little. "We see him first on the deck of his little ninety-ton craft. He goes out of our view in a crazy boat manned by seven sick sailors, cast adrift in the Arctic seas to perish miserably, the victim of a cruel mutiny." He probably died feeling that his life had been a failure--that he had accomplished nothing; yet as direct results of his work we have the great Spitzenbergen whale fisheries, the Hudson Bay Trading Company, and he brought the Dutch to Manhattan Island. It was under the Dutch West India Company's charter that New York City was established. Manhattan Island, consisting of about 19 1/2 square miles was purchased from the Indians in 1626 for a handful of trinkets whose value was about $24.00. Now this same land at the lower end of the island is worth from $200 to $600 a square foot and office space rents at from $1 to $40 a square foot. The land value of the whole 19 square miles is $4,100,000,000 exclusive of the area occupied by streets, and the total value of the property as it stands with buildings and improvements is $6,250,000,000. The island has 2,276,778 inhabitants. It is about 2 miles wide at its widest part and 13 miles long.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Five species of western salmon Year: 1925 The first slide illustrates the five species of salmon as follows: a. King Salmon, also Quinnat, Chinook, or Tyee. It is the salmon of highest quality and value. The average weight ranges about 22 pounds, but may reach as high as 70 pounds or even eighty. It is typical of the Columbia River, but is also taken north and south of that stream. b. Red Salmon, or Sockeye. This fish has a place second only to the Chinook, both in quality and commercial value. In weight the average is considerably less than that of the Chinook, but the flesh is bright red and of excellent flavor. This variety is typical of Puget Sound but is taken both north and south of that region. c. Silver Salmon. This is also a splendid food fish. Its flesh varies from pink to red and by many is considered equal in quality to the Red Salmon. The Silver Salmon is typical of the rivers of the state other than the Columbia. During some seasons the Siuslaw, Umpqua and other rivers of the state have large quantities of this species. At such times many car loads of iced salmon are shipped from towns along these rivers. Some are being shipped directly to the Atlantic coast markets. d. "Chum" or "Keta". This variety was called for many years dog salmon and is yet known to many by that name. It was formerly considered a very inferior species and was seldom used either as a fresh product or for canning. The prejudice against it was largely due to the name, and to the pale color of its flesh. The prejudice has been rapidly decreasing since this species has been found to be a really good food fish, and during recent years. It has furnished fully one-fifth of the Pacific coast pack. e. The fifth salmon is known as the Humpback. It is of smaller size than the Dog Salmon, and like the latter is of the white variety, poor food when fresh and of inferior quality when canned. It is little used as a commercial product. Beside these five species of true salmon there is another commonly known as the Steelhead Salmon. It belongs to a different genus from the above mentioned forms but plays a very important part in the fishing industry of the state. It is considered an excellent food fish and is used freely by the canners, often under the name of the true salmon. The Steelhead is really a trout, ascending the rivers to spawn, but returning to the sea again. From a biological point of view, our Pacific Coast salmon are among the most remarkable fishes known; remarkable because so little is known of the fish while in the sea. The greater part of their life is therefore shrouded in mystery. The following facts are, however, well known: Fact 1. That the salmon ascend the rivers to spawn, some species going but a few miles from brackish waters while others travel hundreds of miles from the sea, in fact into the very small streams, pushing as far as fish of this size can swim. Spawning grounds are almost invariably in the cold fresh waters fed from lakes, springs, and mountain snows. Fact 2. During the ascent of the rivers the salmon do not take any food. As a result, their digestive organization becomes shrunken and functionless. Fact 3. The adult salmon after spawning all die. None of them live to get back to the sea. Fact 4. The young hatched in the small streams may in some species make their way down to the sea the same season; in others they remain in fresh water until the next year. Fact 5. A period of years is spent in the ocean, probably from three to five, depending upon the species. During this time practically nothing is known of their habits.
