The Navaios are pastoral, patr,-
archal, semi-nomadic people. Ihelr
whole culture and development centers
In their fiocks. Their reservation CT
10000 square miles is desert, broken
with mountain and mesa. On the Inc sa
and low mountains there are consider
able areas of pnon aud ce lar. and on
the higher mountains limited area
OF beautiful pine forests. writes T.. >.
Curtis, In Scrlbner's. over his region
the Navajos drive their nocks. AT the
season when the slight raiaiall gives
even a scant pasturage on he desert
plains, the nocks are pasturel there.
As the pasturage on the lower levels
Is both burned with the hot. scorChmg
sun and exhausted with pasturing. the
fiocks are taken up into the higher
mountains, where there is more moist.

out OF the mountains to escape them.
During this time they are kept on the
wooded mesa, where there Is le-a
snow, and a plentiful supply OF wood.
OF which there Is none on the plains
below. Year in and year out the Nav
ajo ilocks are driven back ana forth
from plain to mountain-top, mesa end

While the Navajo's life is 4 wander

strange, from the fac, that it is Il most
