Billy Sunday Wins 2,4OO
Trail-Hitters in New York
in First Call For Converts

New York. April 90. - New York for
got its reputation for blase unconcern,
cast aside its religious precedents and
disregarded its metropolitan polish last
night, when, in response to the first in
vitation from BILLY" Sunday, it fairly
stampeded to hit the sawdust trail.
Men and women stumbled over one
another. swarmed over seats and al
most rioted to be the first at the altar.
Every record of the twenty-one years
of the fiery evangelists campaign for
recruits was broken.
lncompleted figures at hand last
night indicated that the number of trail
hitters was more than 400. The num-
Der would have been much larger but
for the fact that Ma" Sunday, ever
watchful of the physical welfare of her
partner in eVangelistic work, called a
halt for fear of possible collapse. As
II was. the conversions are greater than
at any previous first night by many
hundreds. In Boston 1.100 went forward

UNCLE SANS FORESTS HELP
Afford Grazing This Year for 100000
More Cattle, and Sheep Than
in Past Seasons.

As war emergency measure, Uncle
Sans forest ranges have been car
rying this year approximately 100000
more cattle and 100000 more sheep
than in ordinary years. Ordinarily the
national forests furnish pasturage for
about 100000 cattle and horses and
100000 head of sheep.
The number Of live stock permitted
in the forests is limited in order to
prevent damage to timber growth, wa
ter supplies and the range itself. This
year exceptional weather conditions
combined with the general food situa-
ton to create an unusual emergency.
A severe winter and late spring ex-
hausted the hay supply and forced use
of the spring ranges before they had
reached their normal state. T0 lessen
the losses which the Western livestock
industry faces, the national forest
ranges were opened early and the num-
ber ofsstock permitted for the season
was raised to the maximum consistent
with safeguarding future productive
ness.
1t is believed by the grazing experts
Of the government that the emergency
increases made can be taken care of,
at least this year, without material
sacrifice of productive capacity.
While the grazing officials do not
think that the increase could be car
rled indefinitely without serious dam
age to the forage, regulated grazing
has brought about a steady improve
ment of the range and some areas will
probably be able to support the larger
numbers permanently.
