FOREST SERVICE WILL
RAISE GRAZING Rates
Government Announces Ad-
vance In Fees to Be Charged
In Black Hills District.

Pierre. s.. D.. Nov. 3O.-The national
forest service has decided to increase
the grazing rates in the forest reserve
In the Black Hills after March l, 1917.
A statement says: AT the time the
grazing fees were first established they
were merely nominal and the present
increase is an effort to have the rate
based more nearly on The. value. Ever
with the increased rates, there still re-
mains q big difference between tina
value of the grazing and the charges
made
The rates have been extremely low
to stockmen, and the forest service has
made a careful study of the rate mat
ter throughout the country, with par
ticular attention given to the present
rates charged for similar privileges on
private lands. The proposed rates for
the national forest lands will be about
two thirds of the prevailing charge of
grazing privileges of similar character
ON private lands.
The government, in making the raise
IN rates, is following the fundamental
policy governing the administration OF
national forests. in disposing of timber
and other under market
prices on a commercial basis. The graz
Ing, up to this decision, has, however
been Kept at SO low a figure as not tc
come under that policy.

MOVEMENT is STARTED
TO INCREASE JUDGESHlPS

Pierre. S. D., Dec. 1.-Something
has been heard here lately Of another
move to increase the number Of jul
dicial circuits in the state. There are
now IL, and during the last session Of
the legislature in 1915, there was a
to get a readjustment of counties
and circuits to max new ones. In the
Minnehaha circuit, Nc. 2, an effort was
made to have two Judges to take care
Of the work. but the constitutional
provisions along that line seemed to
make 1t unlawful and the idea was
abandoned. There was an effort to
divide that circuit and make two
from 1t.
This action will probably be tried
again at the next session. as will also
an endeavor to make two circuits out
OF the n in which Codington county
is located. Increase in population, and
consequently increase in court work
in these two circuits make the work
heavy for n judge. 1t takes a two
thirds vote of the legislature to create
a new judicial circuit, but as conditions
demand new circuits they have been
increased several times until now there
are IL districts.
