is one Of which her people are justly

BY a careful reading of the above it

In the issue OF your paper OF March

Ohio has furnished more presidents
to the United States than Virginia.

Old Grazing Lands Made New

Old Grazing Lands Made New
The rich grazing lands of the West
are being seriously damaged by ex
c~essive n unrestrained use. A band
of sheep in grazing destroys much
more grass by trampling than it eats,
and constant overgrazing has ruined
thousands Of acres of the best grass
lands. The effects of unrestricted or
a1-directed grazing not only lessen
production of forage for one Or two
seasons, but the carrying capacity of
the ang is permanently impaired.
Wornout acres quickly spring up to
worthless or noxious growths which
Spead n supersede the natural range
v Large areas are sometimes so
barred by destructive overgraZing that
they become practically barren wastes
The Forest Service and the Bureau
of Plant Industry, of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, have c~ooperated
in a series of experiments looking to-
ward the artificial reseeding Of por-
lions of grazing lands with cultivated
grasses, and studies are being car
ried on to find out how overgrazed
areas can be reseeded naturally, and
how the carrying capacity of the
range can be increased through the
notifications of the present methods
of handling stock. Much of the graz
ing land included In the Natural For
ests was comparatively unproductfve
as a result of unrestricted grazing
before it came under Forest Service
control Since that time it is estimau-
ed that the efficiency of these lands
has been increased 80 per cent mere
