FOREST RECEIPTS GAIN
Uncle Sans Reserves Now Al.
most Paying Expenses.
Increase Due to More Active rlmh.,
eusiness and Higher Fees CHARGED
for Grazing.

Receipts from Uncle Sans national
forests in the last fiscal year exceeded
those for 1916, the banner previous
year, by more than 100000, and to.
tailed over $3,450,OOO. The cost of Oh.
Grating the forests, about 100000.
was virtually the same as in 1915.
The increase, according to the for.
estry officials, came chiefly from a
more active timber business and from
tne higher fees charged for grazing, al
though practically every form of use of
the forests was greater than ever be-
lore and nearly every revenue-produc.
Ing activity contributed to the gain.
The only exception was that of sales
OF turpentining privileges, which fell
OF nearly one-half. Since these sales
are made only on the Florida forest
the receipts from this source are rela.
lively small.
Ihe timber business realized for the
government over $1,6OO,OOO and live
stock grazing over $1,5OO,OOO. Permits
for waterpower development brought
In over 100000 and other forms of
land occupancy, including leases of
land for summer homes, as much more,
IN this item the gain was % per cent.
1t is pointed out by the forest sery.
Ice that many forms of use of the for
ests bring in no revenue. Settlers in
and near the forests are allowed much
free timber for domestic and farm
use and are also allowed free grazing

charge, while their almost inestimable

tanned solely at the cost of the gov
eminent. Although their administra.
ton and protection as public utilities
necessitate large expenditures which
yield no money returns, the narrowing
gap between expenditures and re.
capts holds out the prospect, those
in charge of the work feel, that the
revenues will in no great time exceed
the operating cost.
With the demand for timber mark
eddy stimulated by war conditions, the
government foresters' anticipate q
further increase in the national for
est cut and the receipts for timber DUR
ing the current year. On the other
hand, they point out that an increase
In business will necessarily call for
more work and increased costs. Con-
ersss provided for this by increasing
the funds available this year for ma
tional forest administration and pro-
lection by about $4,000.
Of the grazing receipts cattle fur
nished approximately 100000 and
sheep $4,000. On account of the
food shortage faced by the livestock
industry throughout a great part of
the West last spring, and because Of
the needs of the nation for meat,
wool and hide production, the stock
were admitted early and up to the full
limit of the carrying capacity of the
ranges. AS result of regulated graz
ing the capacity Of the ranges has
been growing greater for some
years, the forest service officials state,
and the increase in grazing receipts is
In part due to the fact that the herds
on the forests this summer are larger
than in any previous season.

hooved his only son to take up the
fight as best he could, to support his
sister and his widowed mother.
Tom Clark had been reared as a
rich mans son. He was just ending
his senior year at Yale when word
came of his fathers death and of the
total wreck of the family fortunes.
lie hurried home, and, after he had
installed his mother and sister in a
side-street cottage. he began at once
to seek some method of supporting
them and himself.
But there he met the first setback
of his easy-going young life. Hitherto,
the ways had all been creased for
him. Now he found them sand-pa-
pered.
Tom speedily discovered that his
services were in no demand at all
among the merchants and financiers
of his little home town.
Home he came, discouraged and
grimly reSolute. after week of fruit

he poured out the story of his trou

of his failures.

America collins are now called Baskets.
Before the war collins were exported to
all parts of the world, but naturally lit
