growth does not prevent it being taken
as homestead. The quakers are not
considered more valuable for. lumber
than the ground for farming.
j. l.. Ellis, now pastol of the Chris
tian church at Craig but owner of a
large ranch within the reserve, has in
terested himself and Others in opposing
the opening of the reserve lands, and
petition circulated among the ranch
men showed practically unanimous
desire to have the land retained as 1T
is, only one man on Williams Fork
refusing to sign it. 1t is probable,
however, that their action was taken
too late to prevent the elimination.
During the Pinchot government, be-
cause of the impossibility of settling
the reserves, there was a general de.
mand for the elimination of all unfor-
ested lands. With the more liberasl
homesteading regulations under the
Taft administration this has become
unnecessary, but the plan first asked
for by the people has gone SO far that
it is almost impossible to check it at
the present time. Mr.. Ellis has re
ceived the following letter from Super
visor Blair which explains the govern
ment S position.
Your letter of January protest
ing against the elimination of certain
lands from the White River forest is
received. | am very sorry that it was
found necessary to recommend the
elimination of the land referred to. On
February Z, 1910, an agreement was
made between the secretary of agricu-
ture and the secretary of the interior,
which was afterwards approved by the
president, as to the character of land
that should be retained within the
national forests. In general terms this
agreement included the following
classes of land: First: Lands wholly
or in part covered with brush which
protects stream flow on the watersheds
of streams important to irrigation and
which have a greater value as a pro
tective forest than for cultivation.
Second: Lands wholly or in part GOV
cred with timber or underground which
nave Il prospective value greater than
the value of the land tor agricultural
purposes. Third: Lands not either
-Eholyser in. part covered with timber
or underground, which are located
above timber line WITHIN the forest
boundary, or in small bodies scattered
through the forest, making elimination
impracticable.
"Two reasons are assignable for the
recommendation of the elimination.
First the onforest character Of the
land involved, coupled with its adapt-
ability for grazing and agricultural
purposes only, and second the heavy
percentage of alienated and agricultur-
al land within the area which it was
thought proper to eliminate from the
forest, in view of the fact that the
government lands intermingled Were OF
such character as to be unsuited for
national forest purposes. The effort in
drawing the revised boundary of the
forest was to place the line as near as
could be determined, at the limit Of
the timber producing area.
81 am forwarding your protest to
the district forester, to be brought 20
the attention of the forester.''
Should the elimination 90 through, it
will leave but six sections of the White
River forest reserve in Moffat county,
eliminating IS sections.
