Forest Supervisor Mains made
short address on Better Methods o
Range Management" He stated tina
during the past season the forest ser
vice had borrowed a band of sheeI
from John Mcconnell and herded them
according to the methods the Service
had been advocating. The sheep were
place on their summer lange June 1OI
and no dogs were used throughout the
summer. They were allowed to Craze
at will, the herder simply turning
them in the direction he desired them
to Craze. They were bedded down
where night overlook them, the herd
er earring his bed out and sleeping
with them to protect the band from
wild animals They were salted every
evening. The sheep were not driven
to water, but were allowed to. seek
it of their own acord.
One of the chief objections raised by
the sheepmen when this method OF (
herding was first advocated was the
of loss by straying and
by wild animals. Mr.. Mains stated
that the total number lost during the
season that was unaccounted for was
but three head. One bear appeared
among the sheep during the season
and was killed by the herder. The
range used was one of the heaviest
.imbered on the forest.
When the sheep were placed upon
he range a number of lambs were
weighed to get an average of the band.
This average weight was tritie over
- pounds per head. They were on
he range sc days and before being
rallied out for shipping the same
lumber of lambs were weighed after

These lambs averaged over II pounds

,ounds. The range used was one that
lad been tried and condemned by
heepmen in the past under the old
method of herding. The damage to

Plenty of Water for the Bench

After spending several days looking
over the Emmett bench, Charles Bar
ringer and Haven Sawyer returned to
Boise yesterday. The latter was so
pleased with the prospects of that
country and its possibilities of being
the select fruit tract of the state that
he purchased 40-acre tract, which he
intends setting to prunes. Mr.. Bar
ringer, who several years ago owned a
fine peach orchard there, which he
sold and is familiar with conditions on
the bench, states that great work has
been done on the Canyon canal since
it was taken over by the settlers and
it is now in such shape that 1t will sup
ply plenty of water next season and
the ranchers will be able to get 1t
early. A great deal of concrete work
has been done on the canal, he states,
which is of high order. He also found
that a number of large orchards had
been set out there since his visit to
the bench. Ranchers there, he says,
are we'll contented and look forward
to a good syear.-Boise Capital News.
