ATTENDS RAM SALE AFTER
CALLING ON THE FORES-
TER IN OGDEN
Working in the Interest
of Sheepraisers
Extra Precautions Being Taken by
Government to Lessen the
Losses Caused by Bad Weather.

County Agent Donald Mclean re-
turned today from Salt Lake City,
where he attended the Ram sale for
a day, after a visit to Ogden where he
went to talk to the forester to get a
list of sheepmen in order that he
might advertise the lambs, and also
to get in touch with conditions rela-
tive to range ewes that it is planned
TO sell this fall, so that so far as pos
sible, they may be placed on farms in
stead of being sold on the markets.
According to the International News
Service Uncle Sans national forest
ranges at this time are carrying ap-
proximately 100000 more cattle and
100000 more sheep than in ordinary
years, as a war emergency measure.
Ordinarily the national forests furn-
ish pasturage for about 100000 cat
tie and horses and 100000 head of
sheep.
Exceptional weather conditions this
year combined with general food sit
uation to create an unusual emergen-
cy, calling for special provisions to
take care of the stock.
The national forests were opened
earlier than usual to lessen the losses
which the western livestock industry
faced because of a severe winter and
late spring, which exhausted the hay
supply and forced use of spring ranges
before they reached their normal
state.
The number of stock permitted on
the ranges for this season was raised
to the maximum, consistent with safe
guarding future productiveness. The
increases made in the allowances OF
stock of national ranges involve GER
tain amount of danger, as the ranges
may be depleted through over grazing
but it is believed by the grazing ex-
perts of the department of agriculture
that the emergency needs can be cared
for at least during the present year
without material sacrifices.
Experts are carefully watching the
condition of the ranges. Reliance is
placed on special efforts being made
to secure the most intensive utiliza
\tion consistent with productiveness bl
Improved methods of handling th'
stock. Better sailing methods anC
the development of new watering
places are among the means employed
for this purpose.
Careful examinations will be mad
at the close of the grazing season OF
each forest to determine its condi
ton and find out how many cattle o
sheep it will support next season. o.
areas found to be over grazed an at
tempt will be made to shift the sur
plus stock to ranges which can bet
ter stand the strain. While official
do not think the increase could b.
carried indefinitely without seriou
damage to the forage, regulated graz
ing has brought about a steady i'm
provement of the range and som
areas will probably be able to supper
the larger numbers permanently.

Presidents Prompt
Reply d Surprise
Diplomats Unprepared for Quick Ac-
tiOn-Plans Are Rejected by Presi-
dent.

WASHINGTON, Aug 30.-Discus-
sion of President Wilson's reception of
the pope's peace proposals in diplo-
matte circles Wednesday revealed that
even some of the entente governments
were unprepared for the prompt fash
ion in which the president disposed of
matter of such tremendous impor-
tance.
President Wilson has rejected the
! Pope's peace proposals. In a note
made public here Tuesday night, the
president says that, while every heart
not blinded and hardened by the ter
rible war must be touched by the NOV
ing appeal of his holiness, it would
be folly to take the path of peace he
points out if it does not in fact lead
to the goal he proposes.
To deal with such a power as the
present rulers of Germany upon
Pope Benedict's plan, declares the
president, would involve a recupera-
ton of the strength and renewal of
the world domination of that power,
now baked but not defeated, after
deluging a continent with the blood
of innocent women and children and
the helpless poor as well as of SOL
diers.
Permanent peace must be based up
on the faith of all the peoples and
upon justice and fairness and the
common rights of mankind, he adds,
and I'VE cannot take the word of the
present rulers of Germany as a guar
antee of anything that is to endure.
unless explicitly supported by such
conclusive evidence of the will and
purpose of the German people them
selves as the other peoples of the
world would be justified in accepting.
President Wilson's rejection of the
Popes peace proposals is regarded
here as the high water mark of the
war. Furthermore, it is indicative Of
the virtual selection of the president
by the allies as their spokesman be
fore the world.
The note comes as a climax to the
remarkable series of state documents
in which President Wilson has argued
the cause of world democracy against
autocracy in the high court of public
opinion and accepted more and more
by the people of all the allied coun-
tries as expressing their ideals.
There appears to be no doubt that
United States has been selected to make
answer before the world, in advance
of all the others. Whether the en-
tente nations will send extended re-
plies is not known here. 1t is re-
garded as probable that they will in
large measure adopt the presidents
reasoning for their own and send
notes of Endorsement.

The most satisfactory method is the
corporation of the city people to sup
ply their own vegetables. Almost eV-
cry one is able to secure small plot
of ground which if it is worked econom.
ically will produce enough vegetables
to supply the needs of the medium fam
lily throughout the summer. Besides
the material value received from this,
a great amount of pleasure and much
needed exercise may also be derived.
This will relieve the farmer from
bringing his vegetables to the city and
allow him to devote his time and truck
patch to the cultivation Of larger and
more necessary crops.
Manual work has been given a new
place or in other words the old idea
