President ROosevelt's interest in

the forests has had much To do with the
recent action OF the national govern
ment In setting aside large tracts of
land in western states ana territories
as national parks. In the year 1902 no
less than twelve new national forest
reserves were established. Most OF
them Were located i'll Colorado. New
Mexico. Montana and Nebraska. but
the largest of all was the reserve OF
4.5o6,210 acres in Alaska. Altogether
the new reserves have Il total area OF
Il, 276,476 acres. The Yellowstone park
and the Yosemite valley have for some
time been national parks, and their
area added to that OF the new reserves
made total of about 6OOO0.OOO acres
under the protection OF the national
government While perhaps the lead
ing idea in the establishment OF some
OF these reserves was the preservation
OF the forests and of natural scenery.
