URGE CONTROL.
 GRAZING LANDS
Cattlemen of Arizona Inter- eSted in Proposition That Is Designed to lm-
 prove Range
MORE CATTLE

PHOENIX, Dec. 27.-One Of the most important subjects that wiH come up for discussion at the con vention of the American National Live Stock association which meets in Phoenix, January , and l6 next, will be that of the control of the cat tie ranges ol the states more largely engaged in the cattle business. There will be a number of addresses upon this feature of the work of the con yention. Arizona was at one time one of the finest open ranges in the United States. and cattle waxed fat and multiplied on her own mesas and in their valleys This however IS not the case now. In many places owing to possibly poog management the range became overstocked and damaged so that il became unable to hold the moisture of the rains and much of il was cut and damaged by the heavy ranges.
 The great Chestion that now con fronts the cattlemen is the improve ment and regulation of the grazing on the public lands of the United States
  the public lands should obtain ana that it should be controlled is a man ner similar 10 the way in which the number of cattle to range any one section is controlled in the national forests. Others maintain that pro- tection should be given but that the leased lands should be under the ah- solute control of the parties who lease the range.
 The general conclusion is. which ever Of the two methods Of control is finally decided upon, 1t will result in more cattle getting better grazing. One prominent local stockman n speaking of the matter said that @ith a satisfactory lease system large in- terests would be more apt to invest in the cattle business and improve the range as a business proposition Without the control Of the range. or without a lease system he m9lnmiE- ed that there is no incentive for any one to improve the range. because nf the uncertainty that after improve ment it can be held.
 All agree that the pTesetn condi- ton of the open range is very unSar- isfactOry Climatic conditions are such that the production oT forage is uncertain. Free grazing with its Chiei evil, oyeTstoCking, has been resp0n sibla for the deterioration of inc range. The uncertainty of the rainE season and the length and severity or the droughts in Arizona, especially mas made 1t imperative for some definite policy to be put into effect in order hat the country shall still sustain it's certain number of cattle and in Ordel that the amount of beef supplied for he market shall not become iessened. |
 Among the prominent Arizonians ! who will address the convention uDCB ] his subject. is Prof. J. J. ThOrnber of the University of Arizona al Tue son. who has made a thorough study lf the situation and has plans where 1 5y it can be remedied. Many of the l Arizona stockmGs. are looking for ward to the meeting because of the l presence of Professor ThOrnber and 1 h fact that he will discuss so i'm IOrtant a uestiOn.
