FORESTRY IN NEW MEXICO.
Party Employed All Summer on ;
Ranch

Washington, Nov. ga party of for
esters from the Bureau of Forestry. I'M
der the direction of Mr.. \. F. Halves,
has been employed all summer on the
William H Bartlett ranch in Colfax
county, n. Mex The field work has been
completed and a system of administra-
ton for the lands is now in preparation.
The Bartlett tract lies at the southern
extremity of the Rocky Mountains in
the Varmejo River Valley and includes
10000 acres. part of an old Mexican land
grant The owner of the tract. who re-
sides in Chicago, uses il in pare as
cattle ranch and summer residence.
The former owners of the ranch retain
the right TO cut timber for a definite
period of years and i, is -dr Bartlett's
desire that a young forest of the best
possible quality cover the tract when
these cuttings shall have ceased Much
of the pine land has already been lum-
bered, though in most parts a sufficient
number of seed trees remain TO insure
reproduction. About fifty years ago ex-
tensive fires swept over the mountainous
parts of the tract which were then COW
cred with a mixture of spruce and fir.
These burned areas have since grown
up TO dense stand of aspen under which,
in most cases, there is a good reproduc-
ton of the native conifers.
The Bureau will recommend that fire
patrols be established and fire lines be
constructed; that those parts of lands
covered with young reproduction be
fenced in so as to keep out the cattle;
and that considerable tree planting be
done, chiefly of western yellow pine.
The plan Will be accompanied by
map showing the location of forest types,
proposed fire lines, areas to be planted,
