Concerning Grazing on The
National FOreSt-GraZin8 Fee

made to the manner of disposal OF
these fees, as directed by Congress
The absolute justification of such
bonuses should first be determined
on a permanent basis, and the laws
for the expenditure of moneys deriv
ed from grazing fees as determined
by Congress, should first be demon
strated to be both justifiable and cor
rect, otherwise the plan smacks OF
hasty consideration.
AS a matter af fact, the grazing
of stock under permit is comparative
ly new from a governmental stand
unduly scared and were over-desirous
to get out from under these govern
ment ranges, and stock to be grazed
under permit was sold out at severe
cut in price. This has been demon
strated an error of judgment. Now,
for the time being the pendulum has
swung the other way and many per
sons are just as desirous of getting
on these government ranges.
This will also be demonstrated an
error of Judgment. Trade will always
take advantage of snch conditions, in
the shape of cut in price or bonus.
The present artificially high prices
tend to boom bonuses along with other
things. When conditions strike their
justfiable level the government may
find that it has cooked one of it's most
important food products into a mess
that will be mighty hard to unscram-
BILE.
1t has so happened that the abuses
of unrestricted grazing of the public
range have received attention first,
and this places the grazing of stock
under permit in a more favorable
light now than it is entitled to remain
and makes comparison with perman-
ent or future elastic conditions en-
tirely unreliable and misleading. This
association has always believed in the
aim of the Forest service and heartily
co-OpeIdteu WIFI II III poth IT'S aim
and administration, and expects to
continue to do so, but it wishes to be
clearly understood as to it's views on
the advantages and disadvantages of
stock grazed under permit and stock
grazed free of restrictions.
The Delta association wishes to go on
record as differing radically both with
the statements in and the conclusions
arrived at in the letter of the secre-
tary of agriculture to the American
Live Stock association, dated Novem-
Der 8, 1916.
Definite, in other words, exact,
knowledge of what you have to work
The Delta independent., 1917-01-12
(By DR.. H. X. Porter)

The American Live Stock Associa
tion has received letter from the
Secretary of Agriculture on a radica
increase in the grazing fee.
This letter is to many of us very
disappointing, not by any means
wholly, or even mostly on account Of
the radical fee increase, but we note
an entire lack of what would seem
to us an able discussion of the actual
conditions met by stock grazing users
of the National forests 1t seems to
many of us to smack rather of a
superficial consideration of this i'm
portant question based mostly on the
possible financial returns for the priv
ilege given, regardless of any CON
sequences evntually resulting there,
from.
Grazing on tn National forests was
the ugly, unattractive, undesired fos-
ter child forced on the Forest service
when the Department of Agriculture
put the management of the National
Forests under it's charge, and the
grazing problem has always remained
a thorn in the flesh of this branch of
the service.
Grazing on the National forests has
both advantages and disadvantages.
This problem with its many difficult
ties has been, in most instances,
splendidly administered by the Forest
service to the best interests of all
backs intrinsic to grazing under fed
eral permit that lie in the very fact
that it is under series of restric-
tions, the aim of which is the great
est benefit to the public as whole.
and this is being arrived at by a
series Of experiments necessary to
determine what is presumably best
for all. We believe it is an accepted
principle of good government to fol
low systematic plan of protecting,
fostering and 'upbuilding its agricul-
tural interests, particularly its basic
food products. The range stock on
the National forests is one of our
Governments most important basic
food supplies.
We do not believe that the Agricul-
tural department is following this
wise principle when it quotes the
highest prices paid as a trade bonus
in special transactions, as basis for
general increase of governmental fee,
charge to meet a method of expendi-
ture Of the moneys resulting from
these fees, is on any more we'll found
ed or justifiable basis. Reference is

And if eventually,

ually be patented? And if eventually,
why not now?"
What would happen if the land were
patented? About what has happened
on patented land elsewhere, probably.
Patented land is not a new toy.
Would we over-graze it? Not much!
And would watersheds with patented
land be overgrazed? Hardly! How
would we Craze it? Why just as we
as stockmen saw good and plenty fit
to meet the best interests Of our land
and stock for their needs are interde-
pendent. And what price would we pay
for this? Why, price based on graz
ing and unrestricted patented land, of
course. Why not?
In Conclusion.
1t would seem that the portion of
the great national meat food supply
now grazed on public lands was as
easily subject to complete and ade-
quate government control as it is to
the present limited and inadequate
form of government supervision. #, 1t
would seem the possibility of a great
national reserve food supply (similar
in a way to national bank reserve)
based on both the needs of the nation
as whole and on the amount of stock
feed produced on the nearby and for
distant ranches. which naturally form
part of this industry from the range
to the marketable product. should be
the basis of allotment and the type Of
stock development. rather than the
present form of allotment and restric-
tions. And 1t would seem If the gov
ernment cannot handle this issue for
the best needs OF the people, why
should not the people handle IL for the
best needs Of the government? In
other words. II the government cannot
devise some form for the adequate con-
troll and upbuilding OF this industry on
its own lands, then why should not
these lands go to the people under
some form OF patent devised to bring
ownership under coditions meeting
the best needs OF the grazing interests
and the nation as a whole7
And finally It appears 20 us that
the 100 per cent raise in the grazing
fee is based on an unsound and insult.
ficient basis and that the stock in
terests grazing under government per
NIT should not in the best interests OF
all be required to struggle along under
1t. even II they could survive under
this burden. There are questions Of
public need and benefit for govern
ment controlled grazing that are much
more important than increasing the
grazing fee to its endurable limit.
