MANAGEMENT
TOPIC Of BULLETIN
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One)
the vegetation, such as the predomi-
nance of annual weeds and grasses,
nike knotweed, tarweed. and mustard
with a dense stand of such species;
the predominance o plants which have
little or no value for any class OF
stock; and the presence of dead ana
partly dead stumps of shrubs. NO
ticeable damage to tree reproduction
and eroism and barranness have long
been recognized as signs of an adj
yanced stage of overgrazing. When
determined, the next step is TO ind
out the cause. The bulletin takes up
the various causes in detail ana
points out the remedies in each case.
Establishment of grazing periods 50
as to prevent damage to the range
through premature use has had as
much to do with range improvement
on the national forests as the preven-
ton of overgrazing, if not more. The
repeated removal of heritage year af-
ter year during the early part OF the
growing season causes rapid deter
i~oration of the range. Little damage
is done after the plants have matured
seed, but it is not practicable to allow
all of the range to be ungraZed until
after the seed natures. The problem
is to work out seasonal grazing which
will result in the maximum produc-
ton of forage and live stock year
after veal. The usual way of doing
this is to divide the range into several
parts and begin grazing early on a diff
ferent portion each year for a series
of years.
The practical information necessary
in carrying out the various principles
that govern range management is Civ
en- in detail in the bulletin. Sugges-
tons are made regarding watering,
sailing, herding, the establishment of
drift fences, the eradication of poison
GUS plants, the protection of wild life,
stock driveways, breeds of stocks,
landing grounds and the proper care
of ewes and young lambs.

Juneau does not propose to give up claiming LeRoy Vestal as the youngest soldier He was barely fiji teen years old when he entered the army. His record in fighting with Battery A., Fifth Field Artillery, the crack battery of the regiment, and later in the Tank Corps, in which his companions were killed and he was badly wounded. in the Mouse Argonne battle, also stands out in favor of claiming him as a celebrity He is now serving as a messenger in the Territorial Legislature.
