introduction of new forage plants,
the studies planned will aim also at
increasing the area of range avail
able. There Is much natural grazing
land in the National Forests which
can not be put to use, either because
the country is too rough for stock to
be driven in, because shipping facih-
ties are lacking, or because OF hack
of water. The construction Of prop
erly located roads and ddveways and
the development OF water through the
building of reservoirs or the driving
of artesian wells are part OF the
general scheme of permanent inn
provements planned for the National
Forests. To furnish the basis for
comprehensive development of the
grazing resource the range will be
studied in detail, classified according
to the type of vegetation found, and
mapped by "forties." The observa-
tions made will include notes for each
forty acres upon the surface, sod,
character and density of vegetation,
evidence of overgrazing or under-use,
presence of poisonous plants, damage
by range-destroying animals, water IA
cilities, and accessibility. With such
data i'm hand it will be possible to
bring about much more intelligent
use of the National Forest range.
