MUCH LAND RECLAIMED

Denver, Feb. 12.-The secretary of
agriculture has announced the classifi-
cation of 45T ,424 acres of land in the
Uncompahgre division of the Uncom-
pahgre forest, as chiefly valuable for
forest purposes and non agricultural in
character.
The, Uncompahgre forest, situated in
the southwestern part of the state, con-
sists of three divisions, the Fruita,
Ouray and Uncompahgre. Practically
all of the first two divisions were pre-
viously classified. The Uncompahgre
division lies along the top of the I'm
compahgre plateau which rises gradual
Fly westward from the floor of the val
ley of the same name from 5000 feet
to almost 10000 feet above sea level.
Westward from the summit to the
Dolores and San Miguel rivers, 1000
to 5000 feet below, the slopes are very
steep and preeipitous. Nearly all the
land classified is above 5000 feet in
elevation and much of it is above 5000
feet.
Of the 1888 acres opened to the
homestead entry in this division since
1906, 1O,573 acres had not been, filed
on up to October l, 1915, and of the
acreage entered but four per cent was
actually used for the production OF
crops. Hay that can be grown with
difficulty in parts of this division can
not be marketed at a profit in compe-
tition with that produced on the rich
irrigated lands under the reclamation
project. The Uncompahgre division
borders one of the best farming sec
tions in Colorado, lands under the I'm
compahgre reclamation project. Much
more of this valley land could be irri-
gated were water available. The pros
perity of the adjacent farming settle
ments depend to large extent upon
the use of the range within the forest
for grazing live stock. During 1915,
28,12S cattle and horses and 55,le6
sheep were grazed, utilizing the full
capacity of the forest range.
There are 4,120 acres within this di-
vision more favorably located, which
embrace all lands having the slightest
agricultural value. These will be ex-
amined in greater detail before their
final classification is determined.
There are also .2,OsO acres which could
be classed as agricultural were water
for irrigation available, but without
which they could not be farmed profit
ably. Their classification is suspended
pending the development of water for
irrigation.
