on a plan to beat the forest re

wrote the forestry officials con-
signing them to the regions be-
low and announcing their deter
mination not to pay the excessive
grazing fees imposed upon their
stock and then Immediately
sold all their cattle and going
out of business. That's one way
of getting out of the clutches of
the blood suckers. but does il
pay? This. however. is the con-
dition of many stockmen who are
at the mercy of the forest reserve
and will be a natural consequence
under the present high handed
manner of governing the reserve.
They positively dictate to the
people Of this district the number
of stock they may run. allow no
increase and conhne them to a
small herd. What man with any
ambition will submit to such an
arrangement? He must sell and
get into a business where he
may exercise his American in

lily and management will justify

OPPORTUNITIES NEAR HOME.
Progressive Towns Offer Excellent
Advantages for Young Men.

Students in sociology have recent
ly expressed pessimistic views as to
chances for the success of young men
of country districts. There has been
no denying of the fact that the farm
affords a splendid opportunity for
those inclined towards pastoral Nfe.
but it is maintained that OF recent
years conditions preclude any great
chances for the average young man
to succeed in the average business
vocation. That is that the channels
for his development are being made
more narrow year after year through
the formation OF corporations and
trusts for the control OF various in.
dustries. In other words. the CEN
tralization of business is considered
detrimental to the pursuing OF busi-
ness in mercantile lines on q small
scale.
This subject is open to wide discus
sion. Cities and towns OF the United
States are rapidly building up, The
population OF the country is increas-
ing wonderfully With this increase
in population new opportunities pre-
sent themselves for the exercise OF
intelligent endeavor. The towns. par
ticularly of the west, are embryo cit
les, and the little village OF to-day
will be the large city quarter CEN
tury hence. Almost every town af-
fords the progressive young man
chance for business success. Oppor-
tunities are plentiful for those who
have the foresight to discover them.
Towns are built up where are certain
natural advantages and their growth
Is dependent upon the territory that
they can draw support from. or upon
some particular advantage that they
may possess favorable to manufactur-
ing along certain lines. The oppor-
tunties for young men are to some
extent guaged by the life and prog
ress OF the towns. Heads of families
look forward to the time when their
sons may enter into business or pro-
fessional life. Ties of kinship are
strong and few parents care to have
grown sons and daughters far away
from them. In this Is discovered a
reason why residents OF a rural dis
trict should take more than ordinary
interest In the home town. Tho more
important the local town the greater
are the opportunities for the young
men of the neighborhood engaging in
business in it. In thousands of cities
and towns of the United States the
leading business men to-day are the
boys who were farmers sons quar-
ter or half century ago. In modest
ways they started in business in the
home town, and with the progress OF
the town developed as business men.
The 1pp1rigY!ies tha! were opened
to those youths are still open to the
youths of to-day. but remember that
many of these men would not have
been the great business men they are
today only for the fact the towns
where they located were progressive
places which gave the opportunity to
succeed.
