CHANGES IN FOR.
EST SERVICE

OGDEN, May 3.-Among the re.
cent additions to national forest area
several changes have been made which
are of interest to Nevada. All OF
the land is in district No. 4, with head
quarters in Ogden.
In eastern Nevada the Nevada ma.
tional forest was created. This area
which lies mostly in White Pine coun.
ty, is in a section of the state covered
by several mountain ranges,t the princi-
pal ones being the Grant, Shell Creek,
Snake and White Pine mountains. The
timber of these mountains, while not
equal to the timber on many national
forests, is still of great value to the
settlers and local industries, and there
fore was deemed worthy of being prop
erly protected.
One great value of the areas at the
present time is for stock grazing pur-
poses, and large numbers of sheep and
cattle are now occupying the ranges.
For the present year all persons who, in
%previos years, have used the ranges
now included in the Nevada national
forest will be entitled to Craze their
stock free of charge and without per
NIT for the season of 1909. They will,
however, be required to conform to all
the regulations of the secretary of agri-
culture concerning the use of national
The silver state news. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1907-1909, 1909-05-04

forests. In the meantime, the supervis-
or will take a census of the live stock
and endeavor to establish the proper
number that should be grazed on the
area without injuring the range, and
next year permits will be issued and
the regular fees charged.
On the Humboldt national forest in
the northern portion of the state of Ne
vada, a large area has been added
which is known as the Bruneau add
ton. The same regulations and rules
for grazing and also the same grazing
periods that apply to the original Hum
boldt national forest will apply to this
new addition. No charges for grazing
will be made during the season of 1909,
nor will any permits be issued; and all
persons who have used this range will
be entitled to Craze their stock there
this year free of charge.
A small addition has been made to
the Toiyabe forest. the largest acreage
being in the vicinity of the city of Aus
tin. Inasmuch as the area is small and
the conditions well understood, the us
ual grazing fees will be charged on
this addition.
There was some fear among the Ne
vada stoekmen that in making these
new forests and also in taking in these
large additions, arbitrary action would
be taken by the forest service in refus-
ing grazing permits to those who had
used it in the past. 1t has been
the policy of the forest service to take
such drastic action, but rather to give
the stockmen ample warning of any
intended changes in such matters so
that they could have time to prepare
for the change by either reducing their
herds or finding grazing grounds else
where. Hence in all such matters no
changes are made the first year, but
notice is given in plenty of time so that
Ii it is found necessary to reduce the
number of stock using the range, all
interested parties can be notified in
time to meet it without loss.

personality. In fact, some times he IS
one person and sometimes another,
but he is always on the job with a
batch of figures whenever any PROPOSE
tion is up affecting the public or pri-
vate fortunes of congress as a whole OF
the individual members thereof. His
latest output purports to show how
hard some of our statesmen would be
hit should an income tax law be
adopted.
The statistican picks Senator Steph-
enson, of Wisconsin, as the richest man
in congress and figures that a tax on
incomes on the basis of the Cummins
bill would pry about 800, 600 a year
away from Senator Stephenson for the
benefit of the federal treasury. View
ed in this light, it isn't so surprising
that Stephenson isn't anxious, merely
for the sake of earning the $500 a
year salary the government pays him,
to vote for an income tax bill. Senator
AiuIltu Is very StiouSif oppooto W M
income tax law. 1t is figured such a
law would cost him $45 5000 a year.
The figures given for Senator Elkins,
of West Virginia. is 100000 a year, for
Senator Kean, of New Jersey, $4,000;
Senator du Point, of Delaware, $25,-
900; Bourne, of Oregon, Newlands, of
Nevada, Depew, of New York and Wet
more. of Rhode Island, $4,000 a year
each, while seventeen other senators
are placed in the millionaire class and
therefore subject to a heavy tax.
The theoretical incomes upon which
these tax figures are based are no
doubt grossly exaggerated, but it un-
doubtedly is true that it would be hard
to get together another body of 80
men who would be as hard hit by an
income tax law as the members of the
United States senate would be.

The Spirits Are Moving.

The spirit of Andrew jackson, the
first strenuous president Of the Uni
ted States, made Its appearance at
Cincinnati the other evening at a
spirltualistic meeting, and through a
trance medium declared that the
country WAS on the eve Of the great
est prosperity in Its history; and
that the administration Of President
Taft would be u successful one.
..Old Hickory's" shade reduced its
declarations to writing; hence there
is no occasion to doubt what the
spirit said.
To White river farmers we would
say, for once pay heed, to what the
spirit says; place the above in your
hat; forget that we have had the &C.
verest winter In our history; go to
work and put In q bumper crop and
await results.

A Denial from High Authority.

DR.. H. w. Wiley, Chief Chemist Of
the Agricultural Department, has
demanded of the Calumet Baking
Powder Company, Of Chicago, that
it cease the publication Of alleged
certificates or statements that he had
endorsed the Calumet Baking Pow
der, or reported in favor of Its pur-
ity, wholesomeness or superiority.
Such statements, he says, are false.
DR.. Wiley never served upon
committee of awards, as alleged, nor
signed such report or certificate,
nor did he ever indorse the Calumet
Baking Powder In any way. On the
contrary, DIR. Wiley testified before
a Congressional Committee relative
to alum in food, as follows: 'As
have said repeatedly, do not use it
In my own home, and would not use
alum in bread II l knew it. Alum Ia
Injurious"
It seems that DR.. Wiley's demand
that the Calumet Company should
cease these publications, which are,
he says, against the truth" was not
complied with, although he says he
has done all he could ito stop the
base and inexcusable use of his
name."
The public will share in DIR. Wi
ley's Indignation that his name and
official position should be fraudu-
lently used to aid in foisting upon
consumers food compound made
from Ingredients which the Doctor
has publicly declared to be injurious.

No National Park.

Some people are now agitating
making the Flattops national park
instead of a national forest. The
latter IL bad enough, imposes enough
hardship upon cattlemen and set
lers, but with national park it will
be worse. Restrictions will be even
more severe and government troops
will be stationed there to keep out
hunters, cattle, settlers and every
body without a permit. The people
Of Routt county will oppose the
move sIrenuously. We have been

made any worse. Let bad enough
