for his services up to July l. and then
sl.50 Ter day for the balance of the sea-
son TO act as cook. the defendant stat
ing that his wife would cook until

But the evidence shows that the de-
fendant'S wife remained after July l.
and had charge of the cooking while
the plaintiff was employed by the de-
PENDANT in other work including the
guiding of parties.
Defendant claims that the plaintiff is
entitled to only 81 per DAY for the entire

ter July l, but the plaintiff claims ST. so
per day after July ]. on the ground that
he was ready and willing to do the
cooking but the defendant preferred to
employ him about other work and that

Forest Reserve News

j
national forests is shown in the
announcement just made that
stock owners will be furnished
free of charge supplies of vaccine
for the treatment of stock aff1lct-
ed with black leg, tuberculosis
and other animal diseases. This
arrangement has been made by
the Forest Service with DR.. A. ID.
Melvin, Chief of the Bureau OF
Animal Industry.
Stockmen holding permits for
grazing in the national forests
will now be furnished with an
effective means of combating
without cost all OF the most dan
gerous diseases to which stock is
subject. The vaccine can be OBJ
tanned simply by applying to the
Supervisor of the forest upon
which the stock is grazed, who
will at once forward the approv-
ed request to the Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry, where it will be
filled. Full directions will be fur
nished tor it's use.
The Forest Service and the Bu-
reau of Animal Industry are
working hard in an endeavor to
eradicate or diminish the COM
mon forms of stock disease found
on the western ranges, and their
efforts are meeting with much
success. 1t is anticipated that a
large number of stockmen will
avail themselves of this latest of
fer of assistance and as a result
the loss of stock will be greatly
reduced and range conditions i'm
proved.
Washington, September IL
The fourth important case won
by the government upon the
question whether it is crime to
violate the regulations OF the
Secretary of Agriculture has just
been decided in the United States
District Court, held at Dead
wood, South Dakota, where
Robert B. Bale was found guilty
of grazing trespass on the Black
Hills National Forest and fined
500 and costs. Mr.. Bale at
once paid the fine and was re-
leased.
The defendant is a stock own
er residing south of Rapid City
and has been grazing about $50
head of cattle in and adjacent to
the Black Hills National Forest
for some years. When the range
in the National Forests was put
under administration in 1906
and the grazing fee system intro
duced, Mr.. Bale refused to secure
grazing permit or to remove
his stock from the forest.
