200 mining, 100 homestead. 10 desert
land and 30 timber and stone claims
were held for further report and 2l5
required TO action.
The General Land Office ordered 81
hearings on recommendations OF the
forest service that claims be rejected.
The average number OF cattle and
horses grazed under each permit was
ca head and the average number OF
sheep LAS. This shows conclusively.
says the report. that the small owners
have preference in the use OF the ma
tional forest ranges.
The total receipts on account OF the
above permits were $S57. 7.S57.S3.
Only eight per cent. of the applicants
failed to pay the grazing fees and to ac'
cept the permits applied for. and with.
out doubt many of these will accept
their permits before the close OF the
season. This Is exactly the same per-
centage as last year.
