Some Methods of Labeling Nature Trails

For several years the students of botany of Iowa Wesleyan College have maintained a nature trail in the Oakland Mills State Park. The writer is one of the three students appointed to take care of this work for the current year. When the trails were first inaugurated it was necessary to select the course, lay out the path and erect signs to keep the visitors going in the right direction, as well as to label items of interest. Now through the activity of the C.C.C. workers, permanently constructed paths run through the highly interesting parts of the park and one needs only to locate and label the more attractive items along some of these paths
