one Of the most active members of
the New Jersey commission to exam
inc into the condition and treatment of
the blind of the state. She is reported
to be in favor of having a visiting
teacher in every town to instruct the
blind rather than segregating them
In institutions. The librarian of the
blind library connected with the pub
lie library at Lynn, Mass, herself
blind from early youth, disagrees with
Miss Roebling and believes that blind
children should be sent to school
with those enjoying their sight Later,
at the age when other children are
usually sent to boarding school, she
thinks they should be sent to schools
for the blind.

Virgin Range Awaits users.

Missoula, Mont, March 25-lt
seems incredible that there should be
any extensive range areas in the
United States yet unused, but such is
a fact, according to reports from the
Office of the district forester in this
city.
The public, and especially western
people, have heard SO much about
over-grazed ranges that the above
statement is surprising, but it is an in
conference.-the fact that in northern
Idaho, upon the Clearwater National
Forest, there is virgin summer range
sufficient for 10000 head of steer.
This range is located toward the
headwaters of the north fork Of the
Clearwater river and between the
Selwai and Loksa rivers on the plateau
lying between the main range of the
Bitterroot and the Crags mountains

necessary to reach it.
In addition to this large unused
range, there are similar areas in tho
Lolo and Bitterroot National Forests
lust across into Montana which afford
summer pasture for a great manv
more cattle, horses and sheep than
have grazed upon them in the past.
The secretary of Agriculture has
authorized the Supervisors of each Of
these Forests to issue grazing permits
for the full capacity Of these unused
ranges, and large stock owners whose
home ranges are over-stocked would
do well to investigate this matter.
