and now the cattlemen themselves ad-
init the value of the policy.
But western politicians. using the
cry OF states rights have 90 far
been able to defeat the application
|of the same principle to the public
range outside the forests. In 1908.
the Burkett bill was drawn and In
troduced In Congress for the purpose
OF regulating the use of the public
grazing lands. Hearings were had,
but the bill made no progress. Last
year there was introduced In the
House, the Lever bill (drawn by the
National Conservation Association)
for the same purpose.
THE bill provided that the Sec
rotary OF Agricultural should have
the right to classify Incorporated
public lands as grazing lands. and
to establish grazing districts reserv-
ed for that purpose. which should
be erased under permit at a nominal
charge. The bill also had this fea-
ture: It provided that. just as on the
National Forests, the stockmen
should have . cooperative orgapi-
zation In each graxing district which
should help to regulate the appor-
tionment of the range and also act
In an advisory capacity as to its reg
ulation. The bill also provided that
the U. 8. Bureau of Plant Industry
should make studies with q view to
improving the range.
But enough opposition developed
to defeat the bill. As a result. the
public ranges Have remained unreg-
ulated. Long abuse has impoverish-
ed them until they are now capable
Of Supporting only about half the
cattle they did formerly. In con-
sequence. the number OF beef cattle
has decreased. with resulting high
prices to the consumer of beef Be-
sides carrying more cattle and sheep
per acre than the adjoining public
range. the national forest range also
shows its superiority In another fash
ion. Cattle from forest ranges are
so fat and desirable that they can
be picked out from other cattle at
the stockyards, and they bring much
higher prices.

out a prescription on half-sheet Of

The doctor, without uttering a
word, took back the prescription he
had just written, tore 1t up, and
