WILL LAY OUT
FOREST ROADS

During the present summer an
engineer of the Office of Roads
will go over the ground on sever
al of the Forests, and draw up
plans which will be submitted
to the Forester, and will serve to
guide subsequent work. Where
the roads planned for cannot be
built, trails will, SO far as posi-
Bile, be made to follow the course
laid out, with the expectation
that later they will be convert
ed into roads.
The roads, trails, telephone
lines and fire lines already corH
structed on national forests are
proving of great value both in
the work of fire protection and
in serving the convenience Of
the public. The further this
work can be carried the greater
will be the usefulness of the for
ests to the surrounding regions.

on the benefits the Irrigation

pecially how it will help advance

know enough to govern ourselves

show to those people our resourc
es and what we have in this

there will be at that time i'll AL
buquerque, representatives from
every state in the Union, there
will be people there that do not
know the difference between
Old and New Mexico, and when
they see our products and re-
sources they will go back to
their homes with very differ
ent idea of New Mexico than
they have now. 1t is surprising
how little they know of our af-
fairs in the east. 1t is an actual
fact that many of the intelligent
people of the east really do not
know that New Mexico is in the
United States at all. (Laughter)
