Meat Production on Ma
tiOnal Forests Increases

Receipts from grazing permits
on the national forests for 1915
will contribute to the public rev.
enues approximately 81, 200, 600,
or about 5000, 600 more than last
year, according to an estimate
made from the allowances just
authorized by the Secretary of
Agriculture. The Forests this
year will furnish forage for L.
983, IT'S cattle and horses, 8.747, :
O25 sheep and goats, and GA, ,O4O
swine, the figures indicating a
material increase of meat pro-
duction on the government reg
ulated ranges.
The increase of 90, CSC cattle
and horses over the allowances
for 1914 is accompanied by a de-
crease of 120, 881 sheep and goats
showing that in many parts of
the West sheep are giving way
to cattle. 1t is thought that the
recent high price Of beef has
been encouraging many farmers
and former sheepmen to go into
the cattle business, though it
will be the first time in the last
five years that the allowance of
sheep has not increased over the
previous season. There are To-
calities, however, where the de-
mand for sheep range is far in
excess of the demand.

A Problem for the
State Tax Commission

What valuation should b e
placed on two suits of underwear
and gold filling in three teeth for
assessment purposes?
This is the question submitted
the other day to the state tax
commission by Assessor E. A.
Hughes f Cochise county.
Hughes says the matter is speci-
ally for "the learned Mr.. Tom
Campbell" to solve.
The peculiar proposition came
because Assessor Hughes had
left a valuation blank at the
home of Mrs. L. K. Stanberg, a
widow of San Simon, to fill out,
Mrs. Stanberg not being at home
when he called to ascertain what
she had to pay taxes on.
The blank was returned to
Hughes and on the list appeared
the two suits of underwear and
gold filling for three teeth.
Hughes has never assessed
such things before, so he sent a
letter right away to Jess Boyce,
secretary of the commission, ask
ing to have the commission fix
the right valuation.
The matter may be referred to
the attorney general.

War Sounds Knell
of Vests BrOnChO


to mark the final passing of the
wild horse from the range, the
disappearance of the bucking
broncho so long associated with
the West, says a dispatch from
Denver, Colo
Even now there are practically
no. wild horses such as once
roamed the ranges and with the
inroads being made upon the
horses of the West by the war,
his half civilized brother, the
broncho, promises to disappear.
Thousands of horses have been
taken from Colorado. Wyoming
and other western states.
Not only have British and
French buyers invaded this Sec
tion, but repres entatives of the
Italian government have combed
the country for months. During
the last few weeks an Italian
buyer purchased several hundred
head of horses and so great was
his haste to get them to his home
country that they were sent by
express from Denver to the East
instead of by freight. There
they were to be hurried aboard a
steamer for Italy.
This draining of the West OF
horses means that in the rehab-
ilitation a better breed of horse
will be produced. 1t is this that
sounds the death knell of the
broncho. Stations and mares OF
standard breed draft and general
purpose horses have been placed
throughout the West. Their pro-
geny are already influencing the
general trend of development of
the horses in the sections in
which the work of government
is being centered. AS the de-
mand for horses to replace those
sold for war purposes increases
it will be animals of better
breeds that will take their places.
When the British government
was purchasing horses for use in
the Boer war it was necessary to
employ broncho busters, who
spent weeks battling with the
prospective mounts for British
cavalrymen before they were
conquered and sufficiently sub
dued to the saddle to satisfy the
government agent. This year
there is little evidence that the
British or French or in danger of
suffering casualties through en-
countering the American horses.
Constant association with man
through the years between the
Boer war and the present, in
stead of roaming over the un-
fenced plains, has had it's inhu-
ence upon the horse. The new
er say die" fighting spirit of the
old broncho in his struggle against
the touch of leather and his in
tense hatred of man, because he
was a representative of enslave-
ment to the saddle, has slowly
fiickered out. Breeding and as
sociation has brought about the
inevitable.

This is the time of the year when
impaction Of the bowels is most com
mon to work horses. The animals
having little to do are turned out to
an old straw stack or coarse alfalfa
and allowed to shift for themselves.
Owing to the cold weather they drink
little water and the coarse food not
being properly moistened clogs the
intestines. This is more liable to be
the case if the teeth are not in first
class condition, for then the food is
not finely ground in the mouth. Look

reduce impactions.
