TIMBER SALE TERMS
PREVENT MONOPOLY

In a sale of 80 million feet of
national forest timber to the
Mount Graham Lumber Company
of Thatcher, Arizona, a contract
has been entered into which,
Forester Graves says, contains
effective safeguards against poss-
ible monopoly. The timber is loca-
ted on the Mount Graham Divi-
son Of the Crook National Forest
and fumes will be constructed by
the company for taking the lum-
Der from the mountain into Gila
Valley. Under the terms of the
sale these fumes, which will
form an outlet for the Mount
Graham Range timber generally,
are to be available for the use of
the Government or of any other
purchasers from the Govern
ment.
The timber contracted for con-
sists chiefly of Douglas fir and
Engelmann spruce, with small
quantities Of western yellow pine,
white fir, and Mexican white
pine. The initial price of So. 90 per
thousand feet board measure is
subject to readjustment in &C
cordance with market values at
the end Of three years, the con-
tract period extending over six
years.
A feature of the sale is the
fact that the lumber will be used
soley to supply the needs of the
local market, which consists in
part Of the agricultural districts
developed along the ella River,
but chiefly of the large copper
mines at Globe, Clifton, and Mo
renci. This market has hitherto
been supplied almost exclusively
by lumber produced on the north
ern Pacific Coast, shipped by
steamer to San Pedro, California,
and thence inland over the South
ern Pacific.

end was caused while acting as

afternoon. The funeral services,
in charge of the Masonic fratern-
ity, was held at the Episcopal
church at 3 O'Clock, where a
touching sermon was delivered

casket was covered with flowers
presented by the Masonic and
Odd Fellows lodges and by indi-
viduals.
Jesse Gregg was native of
Illinois and came to Arizona in
1882 and has since made his
home in Flagstaff. He was

FOREST OFFICERS HELP
STATE PROTECT GAME

An agreement to cooperate
with the State of New Mexico in
the protection of game on nation
al forests has been entered into
by the United States Forest Ser
vice. Negotiations looking toward
a similar arrangement with the
game wardens of Arizona are
under way. On the other hand,
tbs game wardens will report to
the nearest forest officer any fires
they may discover on or near a
national forest.
The present plan is a logical
development of the general
policy of the Forest Service to
help the State authorities in
game protection. It specifies
more defnately than heretofore
the extent of the cooperation
forest officers are expected to
furnish. In aletter to State Game
Warden Trinidad C. de Baca, the
Government outlines the propos-
ed activities Of Forest Service
men in assisting to enforce the
game laws of New Mexico, as
follows:
Forest officers will pay strict at
tention to the enforcement of the
game laws in so far as their du-
ties permit, by reporting all cases
of violation of the game laws to
the regular deputy State game
warden in whose district an off
ense is committed. They will make
arrests in fagrant4cases where it
is impossible to notify the deputy
State game warden, and where
the violator is likely to leave the
section Of the country. They will
also furnish to the proper officers
all available information, which
will assist them in apprehending
or prosecuting violators of the
game laws.
The rangers will further be ex-
pected, as far as practicable, to
keep a record Of the total number
of game animals by classes killed
in there districts, to be turned in
to the State game warden, at the
end of the season.
Maps showing the telephone
connections Of the Forest Service
and the headquarters Of the ran
gers will be furnished to the dep
uty State game wardens by forest
supervisors.
In case the regular deputy
State game warden discovers fire
on an area within or contiguous
to the forest, he is expected to
PROMPTLY notify the nearest forest
officer Of the fact.
The matter of maintaining the
game supply in New Mexico and
Arizona is being taken up ener-
getically by both these States. On
the Carson, Pecos, and Gila Ma |
tional Forest of New Mexico, |
deer, wild turkey, and, in certain
localities, bear may be found,
while on the Sitgreaves and Apa-
che National Forests in Arizona
big game in quantities abounds.
In the White Moutians of the
Apache and the Black Range of
the Gila National Forest is some
of the best hunting in the coun-
try.
