Boise, Ida, Feb 22.--As announced.
the special meeting of the Idaho Wool.
growers association, to reconsider the
resolutions in reference to the present
forestry policy in Idaho. as adopted at
It's last regular annual session on the
IL of December, was held IN Boise
yesterday. There were present about
% members Of the association besides
many others Interested in the sheep In
dustry of the state.
The reason why the association
deemed reconsideration of their
adopted resolutions necessary was from
the fact that some serious notifications
OF the recommendations OF Forest SUI
pervisor Major Fem regarding the
Idaho reserves had been made BY tha
government at Washington, which were
held to be decidedly Injurious to the
wool growing industry of this state.
The matter was taken up with the
proper authorities at Washington at
very early date, and the notifications
were Abandoned so that now the as
ISOLATION stands by its resolutions first
adopted. At It's meeting yesterday, the
do hereby pledge our support and co..
operation In administering the reserves
already created, but we do not indOrse
the general creation of reserves until
such time as opportunity can be afford
ed the forestry bureau and the citizens
or the state to determine what adjust
men Will be 10 the best interests OF ALL"
Resolved That we urge the chief
forester to use great care in the selec.
tion of impartial, competent and prac.
teal supervisor and rangers"
