According To Forest Supervis-
Dr. ireland, Of Prineville, stock
men must get pei eImits TO Craze
on the reserve. The impression
lad gotten out that this was not
necessary this season, but !, does
aol seem to have come from any
source OF authority. The Times
Herald had such an impression
and may have led some of its
readers to believe such was the
case, but it is a mistake. Stock
men should look into this matter
as il may save them annoyance
and trouble.
