daries in the Weneha forest reserve
and pass on applications for grazing
permits adjourned at o'clock last
night. Limiting the applicants to the
number Of sheep that the reserve will
safely carry was the hardest part
of the committees work and all day
yesterday was spent in pruning down
the big bands in order to give the lit
tie man a SHOW.
The application of Hocn and Size
more. Pasco sheepmen, was finally re-
Jected. One member of the firm testi-
Ned before the committee that the firm
owned no sheep and did not range any
! In the reserve last year. False state
ments in filing the application were
proven and admitted besides the firm
! has no regularly established camp
in the reserve. They were designated
as wandering sheep men.
The application of Pearson & John
son was reconsidered. The commit
tee found that their application was
! made under misunderstanding Of
the facts and they were allowed to
put in sneep to the amount ranged
in former years. Harder and Hen
bricks application for 800 dry sheep.
which was rejected, was reconsidered
and admitted.
In the cases of j. T. and j. E. Hos
kins. applications We're affirmed, the
applicants making no claims for re-
hearing and abiding the decision of the
committee to the ranger. In the Hos
kins case the committee was advised
that it had misinterpreted the law and

stricted district with 1900 ewes with
their increase and that they pay an en-
trance fee on 2240 head This was sat
isfactory to the Hoskins.

The committee recommended that
sheep be not allowed to enter the re-
serve before June 1 and depart there
from by Octiber Is. This rule. how
ever is to be varied with different sea-
sons and conditions. It was further
recommended that sheepmen be advis-
ed in cases where sheep are required
to cross the range Of another that
route be selected across the said range
and all sheen crossing be required to
use said route for both ingress ana
