FOREST RESERVES.

The American forest congress at it's
meeting in January next will devote
one days session to consideration Of
the relation Of the public forest lands
to grazing. Only those who thorough
ly understand conditions in the west
can appreciate how important is the
question Of grazing in connection with
the welfare of the forest. Grazing is
the principal industry of nearly half
Of the United States. The arid region
of the country includes about two-fifths
of its entire era, from about the middle
of the continent westerly nearly to the
Pacific ocean, and the greater part Of
this region Is natural grazing land,
mainly open, but much Of 1t, particu-
larly in the more mountainous parts,
forested or partly forested. The for
age varies from the scanty vegetation
of the desert to the thick turf of the
mountain parks and the varied growth
of herbage and young trees found in the
interior Of the forest During the ex-
cessive heat Of summer II is custo-
mary to drive the cattle and sheep upI
into the forest, where the air is cooler
and the pasture better. This means
that the young growth is trampled
and browsed and the spongy forest
soil packed or cut by hoofs, so that
floods and serious soil erosion often
follow, while the prospects of forest re-
production are greatly endangered
Hence 1t is often necessary to exclude
both sheep and cattle, though the regu-
lations are generally more rigid
against sheep, which do the worst
dam damage.
That the land best suited to grazing
should be given over to 1t is self-evi-
dent. But neither the public domain
or the forests should be overgrazed.
Forests are essential to irrigation
plans for reclaimating arid lands. The
facts that sheep successful Craze upon

THE CALENDAR CRAZE.

II is calendar time now, and the
small boy and his elders are besieg-
ing those offices which yearly issue
reminders to the world that 1t Is grow
ing older. The issuing of calendars
by banks, trust companies, Insurance
companies, and even by Astoria mer-
chants has assumed mammoth pro-
portions with the passage Of years. and
the amount of money spent on them
amounts up into the millions. There is
keen rivalry between the big insur-
ance companies as to which shall is
sue the best calendar from an artistic
point OF view, and several hundred dol
lars are often spent on a design for
them. Even the grocerymen, dry goods
merchants and the breweries issue
them. AT this time the employees busy
giving them out, to say nothing Of the
force employed in sending them out
through the mails. The boys who go
calendar hunting travel in bands, and
penetrate every ONCE. HeDuits nave
no effect on them, and II one fails, all
the rest try their luck. As fast as they
can get calendars they shove them
underneath their buttoned-up jackets
or coats so as they go from office to
Office they gain in weight. A wise clerk
who have just been told by such boy
that he has got no calendars, will lean
over the counter and unbutton the
swelling jacket.
Calendars are used as an advertising
medium, and are said to be very effect
i've and produce good results. No home
is considered furnished now that does
not have a half-dozen calendars or
more. The calendar fad is growing in
popularity in Astoria and are used by
all the leading merchants.

UNITED ACTION NEEDED.

Having pointed out the plain duty of
the people Of Astoria on the question of
Sunday observance, and quoted the law
on the subject, ii has performed duty
il owed to the public. Compulsory
closing of certain lines of business
would not be conducive to success
Moral suasion is more potent factor
in needed reforms. To educate the
public up TO a realizing sense of the
importance and resulting benefits of
Sunday observance is a duty enjoined
upon newspapers who believe in a
higher standard of morals, To carry
these into effect is a duty the public
owes to society. Withdrawal of pat
ronage from those who disregard the
law and the sentiment of large ma7
jority of the people of Astoria, is one
Of the most effective agencies to Sc
cure the enforcement of the laws.
Throughout Astoria nearly all the
mercantile houses will close next Mon
day, simply because the laws Of Ore
gon provide that when a holiday falls
on Sunday, the day following is to be
observed. Sunday is just as much Of
a legal holiday. under the law. as
Christmas, or the Monday following it.
If the people were as anxious to OBJ
serve Sunday as they are other legal
holidays, the battle would be won
without a perceptible struggle. Mer-
chants. as a rule, do not consider II
essential TO their trade to keep open on
Monday, and the same rule ought to
apply to Sunday. Custom makes law,
is an expression frequently heard. It's
a poor rule that won't work both ways.
II custom is the excuse for carrying on
business on Sunday, why should 1t not
mould public opinion to close on that
day.
If the people once become. accustomed
to the innovation, not only will they
be surprised at the beneficient results
but they will not care to go back to
the old regime. Newspapers cannot ac-
complish the desired result. they must
have the moral support of the COM
munity. Public officials do not do 1t
because public sentiment seems to be
against it. To change this sentiment
can only be accomplished by united
action. A large majority Of the people
of Astoria are no doubt in favor of the
change, but they lack the moral cour-
age to live up to their honest convic-
tions.

cattle has led sheep men into high
mountains and about the headwaters
OF streams, where speedy and great
damage can be done the protective In.
fiuences of the forest, In addition
sheep are generally herded or cencen-
trated on small areas; thus their gras-
ing has an intensive character peculi-
arly destructive. For these reasons
and because OF special local conditions
sheep are entirely excluded from some
forest reserves. while In others their
grazing Is more stringently regulated
than that of cattle.
Hitherto there has been continual
conflict between the sheep and cattle
men for grazing locations. and the linn
itation of the claims of each In the
reserves has been one OF the most em-
barrassing and difficult questions OF
forest control. Happily. through a re-
cent conference at Denver, there has
been the fullest and most amlcable In
lterchange Of views in the history OF
the business, 1t is expected there will
be less friction between them In the
future than in the past
That the bureau Of forestry keenly
appreciates the importance OF the
grazing question is shown by the In
structions II gives its field force ex-
amining lands with view TO forming
new reserves or revising the boundaries
Of existing reserves. Its agents must
give definite and full reports on all
the following queries: Demand upon
the range; to what extent the pros
perity of the local residents depends
upon livestock: how many stock are
now using the reserve, and how dis
tributed: where owned; whether stock
men own ranches or reside in the re-
serve their home residence; to what
extent. as a summer range. the pro-
posed reserve limits outside range;
whether II includes limbing grounds:
conflicting interests, as between sheep
and cattle. local and outside stock. etc,
merits of the controversy; description
of the character Of the grazing lands,
the extent OF open parks and pastures
In timber; to what extent grazing has
Injured the range or forest: the man
ner of handling stock; the size OF herds |
or bands; areas, II any, from which |
stock should be excluded; division OF
pasture lands: recommendations for a
plan of control. giving the number of
stock and length Of grazing season to
be allowed. and any special regulations
necessary; and the practicability Of a
division of range into individual
ranges. 1t is only after exhaustive ex-
animation and full report that action
Is taken limiting grazing rights.
The forest reserve policy OF the ma
tional government involves many inn
portant questions which are yet to be
settled. The approaching American
forest congress. to be held in Washing
ton, d. c., will give the best oppor- i
tunity that has ever been offered for
heir board discussion. This meeting
has aroused wide interests among cat
lie and sheep men and their associa-
ions. A large representation from the
industry is expected at the
congress. and far-reaching good is
likely to result from its deliberations.
