UPHOLD REGULATIONS
StocIsmen Cooperate with Forest
Service to Preserve Range

There were only 144 cases of graz.
ing trespass on the national forests
during the past fiscal year, accord
ing to a report issued from the for
est service. The service considers
this remarkable, in view of the fact
that the national forests contain
1873 ,000, 900 acres and have bound
aries many thousands of miles in
length. Nearly $4,000 grazing per-
mits were issued, and more than
20, ,000, 900 head of domestic animals
grazed upon the forests for periods
from few days, in crossing, to a
whole year.
The various forest officers in
charge of the areas on which this
stock grazed are much pleased by
this record, because it reasonably
might be assumed that it would be
extremely difficult to protect this
large area from the encroachments
of live stock and from depreciation
of various sorts. A large part of
the difficulty, however, is obviated
by the ready cooperation of the
stock owners who use the range.
Of the 144 cases where the de-
partures from the regulations of the
department of agriculture were con-
sidered serious enough to warrant
the filing of a trespass charge,
twenty were dismissed by the de-
partment because of lack of proof.
The department points out that,
while there were of course great
many minor violations due to lack
of knowledge or misunderstanding
of the regulations, they were settled
without difficulty through the issu-
ance of permits to cover the cases,
or by personal conferences, which
were sufficient to prevent further
trouble.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines

If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary bron-
chitis and pneumonia use cough
medicines that contain codine, NOR
phine, heroid and other sedatives
when you have a cough or cold.
An expectorant like Chamberlain's S
Cough Remedy is what is needed.
That cleans out the culture beds or
breeding places for the germs of
pneumonia and other germ diseases.
That is why pneumonia never results
from a cold when Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy is used. 1t has a
world wide reputation for its cures.
1t contains no morphine or other
sedative. For sale by all dealers.
