INTERESTS TO
BEPROTECTED
Forest ReServeMan Makes
Statement of Govern
ment Position and Aim

SALT LAKE, Jan. 27.-There will
probably be number of important
changes in the details of the admin
istration of national forests as the
result of Assistant United States For
ester A. F. Potter's repeated confer
enees with the sheepmen of Idaho,
Wyoming and Utah. That is the alb
stract of Mr.. Potter's opinion ex-
pressed to his assistants at the BAN
quet which, Saturday night, fifty end
ed the protracted deliberations of the
forest officers.
The news is of the utmost import
aace to the men who are interested in
the sheep industry of the west. 1t
means primarily that a presentation
CT facts concerning the disadvantages
of national forest administration can
gain a hearing from the officials at
Washington and that a studied effort
will be made to correct all errors in
the arrangement of the details of the
forest regulations.
Mr.. Potter's attitude is III contra
distinction to all published reports
concerning the forest service. The
Ioint he makes is that the forest SER
vice cannot take cognizance of indis-
criminate, unfoundeH attacks upon
the administrative officers who, from
time TO time, have been charged with
letty mismanagement, and that the
officials of this department of the
federal government are willing to
hcar. and will endeayor to adjust sat
isfaetorily. all complaints which are
substantiated by acceptable proofs.
Mr.. Potter was greatly impressed
by the conduct of the sheep owners
and feels grateful for the frank and
temperate manner in which they pre-
sented their complaints and discussed
the various matters concerning forest
regulations. On the other hand, the
sheep owners appreciate the treat
rent accorded them by the assistant
forester. This meeting between the
sheep owners and the forest officers
is perhaps the most important ever
held, inasmuch as all matters were
formally and temperately taken up,
ana the persons lnNOiNSu nave pdlteu
more impressed than ever with the
virtue of national forest administra
ton and imbued with a spirit OF CO.
operation, the product of which will
ultimately inure to the benefit of the
country the state and the sheep in
dustry, which is one of the most vital
factors in the development of the
west.
''Mr. Potter's estimate of the pres
ent proportions of the forest service,
said r. L. Benedict. chief Inspector of
district four, Saturday night, 'shows
an area of $50, 900, 900 acres of land
upon which are being grazed 7,000,-
900 sheep and 100000 cattle. In
the short time the service has been
in existence the work of teeting an
organization has been most satisfac-
tory and the results of national adj
ministration of forests in benefits to-
the people living adjacent to timber
boundaries and the several states has
eindieated he department.
The principle is admittedly right
end we do not deviate an iota from
the original purposes of national for
ests. 1t has been impossible to effect
a perfect organization in this short
period.

This worried her a great deal. and
one day when the minister called she

So one night they were going to have
a meeting in her house, and he gather

When he went in he hung his cage up

Turkish Farriorv.


Turkish horseshoes are simply a fat
plate Of iron with hole in the middle
In his volume Of Personal Adven-
lures" Colonel J. r. Robertson de
scribes the extraordinary method Of
preparing the horse to be shod.
The farrler takes n good long rope
doubles 1t and knots n loop at the end
to about the size of a good large horse
collar. This is put over the horses
head after the manner of a horse col
lar the knot resting on the horses
chest.
Then the two ends of rope are
brought between his legs. Each rope,
then taken by a man, is hitched on to
the fetlocks of his hind legs and
brought through the loop in front; then
by hard, steady pull the hind legs are
drawn up to the fore legs, and the
horse falls heavily ON his side.
All four feet are then tied together
by the fctlocks. the horse is proppcd up
on his back, and the farrier sits quiet
ly down beside him, takes off all the
old shoes and puts on new. When the
work is finished the horse is united
and allowed to get up.
