tain s2ou,on0 Immediately from the
State Board OF Capitol Managers for
highway improvement this year has
been prepared by Hiram L. Hits,
member of the Board Of Capitol Man
ayers and former state senator from

General Farrar.
The measure provides for the issu-
ance OF three certificates covering
portions OF the capitol boards income
during three years to meet the total
amount owed by the board to the in
ternal improvement fund with interest
The certificates would be credited to
the school funds from which the
money would be taken and their
amounts would be paid as the income
was received under the capitol boards
annual levy.
Governor Carlson has been consider
ing a plan of the kind In order that
he road Improvement work through

Receipt Of the money would allow the
Highway Commission to spend approx
lmately 100000 during the coming
working season and would thus assure
that about 100000 would be spent this
year on Colorado roads, as the coun-
ties must duplicate the sums spent by

work has also been suggested to the

GRAZING Of LIVE STOCK
SECRETARY INCREASES ALLoT-
MENT ON FOREST RANGES.
Authorization Secured to Craze 370,.
900 Cattle and Horses and 927,3Co
Sheep and Goats in 1915.

Western Newspaper Union News Service,
ver-Announcemen is made by
the Denver office OF the forest service
OF the number of live stock authorized
by the secretary of agriculture for
grazing upon the forest ranges within
the state during the season of 1915.
According to the announcement, autho-
rization has been secured to Craze
37o,9OO cattle and horses and 927,300
sheep and goats. This is an increase
over last years allotment Of approx
mately 10000 cattle and horses and
10000 sheep and goats.
The increased authorization is due
for the most part, II is said, to the
opening OF new and hitherto unutilized
ranges which have been made avail
able through trail construction, water
developments and other improve
ments, and also to the increased carry
Ing capacity Of the ranges brought
about by improved methods of hand
ling stock.
During the 1914 grazing season
more than million head of live stock
secured forage within the forest
ranges of the state, under permits is
sued to $500 stock owners. It is esti-
mated by forestry officials that only IS
per cent OF the carrying capacity OF
the range is fully utilized and that
range is available for an additional
100000 head OF stock.
