Which Indicate
Range Improvement
Or Depletion

Overgrazing and the cropping Of
the forage without regard for the
requirements of plant growth soon
results in financial loss to the stock
man and often interferes seriously
with the development and preserya-
ton Of other resources of the forest.
1t is therefore OF the greatest inn
portance to recognize overgrazing
before the injury to the range has
become serious.
II is well established fact that
as the more palatable plants are
killed by overgrazing species usually
not grazed by stock readily take the
place of the desirable forage plants.

the intermountain west, and on the
shores of the Pacific. Also whose
achievements and glory are SO insep-

bers have passed to the great be-
yond So this monument should be
built at once If we are to proceed ac-
cording to first hand evidence and
information and not according to
more or less fanciful and legendary
tales concerning them and their Diff
ficult journey.
1T is sufficiently creditable and
clarifying to tell their history as it
was and without adornment. The
most important events are to be
shown in bronze and stone upon this
monument.
Its execution will certainly tax
the sculptor to his utmost, but l be-
lieve it is in thoroughly capable
hands and when built will be one OF
the really great monuments of the
United States. D

pose to build 1t not only as an add
