ORCHARD PESTS.

few years Utah has had her share.
We have had the pear blight, tomato

And notwithstanding the advances
made in science, and the vast amount
of money spent in the equipment Of

with US. Not that the expenditure Of
all this money is not productive of
good, but from the fact that our areas

NEW GRAZING
REGULATIONS
Forest Service Gives Out New
Rules

Mashriugton, March ZU.-lhe ooN
Rotary of Agriculture has approved a
revised form of the grazing reguia-
tons which govern use of the Ma
tional Forest ranges. In the opinion
of the department officers. the most
,mnortant departures from the old
regulations are found, first, In 'he
fact that provision is made for recog-
milton of a permanent National ad-
visory board representing the sheep
and cattle interests, which will con-
fer annually with the secretary OF
agriculture concernig grazing matters
and secondly, in the laying down OF q
rule that on forests where the quail
ity of range and advantages for rails
ing cattle and sheep are equal, the
year long rate for sheep after the
season Of 1911 will be thirty per
cent of the year long rate for cattle.
The new regulations have been
made the subject of extended and most
careful consideration and are promul'
gated at the present time as the re-
suit of general revision made OF all
the regulations governing the use OF
the national forests Before deciding
on the grazing regulations. Secretary
Wilson invited representatives of the
two great National organizations of
stockmen, the National Wool Grow
ers' Association and the American Ma
tional Live Stock Association, to pre-
sent their views to him on grazing
matters, and to make any suggestions
which they might wish to offer con-
corning the proposed regulations.
The proposed regulations, as they
had been drafter by the Forest ser.
vice, were submitted to delegates OF
the two associations who came to
Washington in response to Secretary
Wilson's invitation. This action on
the part of Secretary Wilson is de.
clared to be in accordance with the
established policy of the Forest Ser
vice in seeking cooperation with Or
sanized bodies of stockmen who make
use of the National Forest range. Sec
rotary Wilson recognized that the
one and one-half million cattle and
seven and one-half million sheep
which are annually grazed on the

the price of beef and mutton in this
country, and that the public need OF

tain states consume many times their
annual. output, thus offering splen-
did opportunity for the development OF
this industry. One firm in Salt Lake
in .he past three years has increased
its investment from $4,000 to $780,
900. has pushed its employment roll
from 35 to 300 people, has added two
plants in Utah and one in each OF
three other states. BY advertising and
working among the farmers 1t has
greatly increased the total output OF
the state and has added over 40 per
cent to the volume of goods distrib-
uted annually, and yet 1t must send
East for one-half of the milk, butter,
eggs and poultry handled. Another
firm in Ogden shows a similar record.
This indicates the very great POSSIBLE
tiles in this line and leads us to urge
more attention to 1t. The three big
milk condensing plants in Cache Val
ley also use many thousand CAUCUS
of milk. If they could get 1t they are
prepared to handle vastly more. The
meat-packing companies are comp,ain'
ing because they are unable to get

of the beef cattle and hogs they are
prepared to handle. Three million dot.
