GOOO RESULTS FROM
RANGE MANA G { ENT
ON NATIONAL FORESTS

The greater part OF the 10000.
900 acres of land embraced within
the National Forests Is grazed an
nually by livestock. In 1919 this
enormous forage resource supported
approximately 11.275, 461 cattle,
sheep, goats and swine. In many
parts of the west such as in the in
termountain region (Which includes
Utah, southern Idaho, eastern and
central Nevada and northwestern
Arizona) the livestock industry is
The main source of wealth. Natur-
ally this industry is dependent upon
a permanent supply of good forage.
Ideal range management is the
business of cropping the grazing
lands SO as to obtain maximum util-
ization and yet retain the lands in
the highest possible state of produc-
tivity. As long a. there was a sup
ply OF grass sufficient to maintain all

practices We're necessary. Owing TO
the rapid growth of the livestock in
dustry, however, il was not long un
til the ranges were badly depleted.
Through the adoption of the in
dividual permit system whereby the
National Forest ranges were cropped
at least somewhat in proportion TO
the grazing capacity of the lands
these ranges soon made appreciablc

cooperation which the stockmen
have given the forest service in the
adoption of improved methods Of
livestock management developed by
grazing experts, il is estimated that
from 1905 to 1920 the forest ranges
increased in productivity from 25 to
40 per cent. This Improvement was
brought about chiefly by ID cor
rectly estimating the number of stock
that the ranges would support: CD
improved methods of handling live
stock; t3) grazing at the proper sea-
sons: "a development of stock wat

What's the Answer?
That's the Question

The following excerpt from an ad.
yertisement carrying opinions of
several noted men and journals is CT

article is under the caption Are the
Coal Operators Profiteering?" and
while offering no answer leads to
interesting study:
The amazing statement of ex-
Secretary OF the Treasury McAdoo
that the profits of the bituminons
coal operators ran as high as 1000
per cent in 1917. and his implied
charge that they are profiteering al
the expense OF both the public and
the miners, has started pretty rum
pus in the editorial columns of the
nations press.
THE United Mine Workers Jour
nal thinks that MIR. McAdoo's state

their claim that the operators could
grant a substantial wage-increase out
of their profits without increasing
the price of the coal to the con-

Over one hundred and fifty thous-

waste OF life when We consider that
tuberculosis is classed as a prevent
able disease. Moreover, because this
loss of life occurs almost entirely in
the ranks Of the young adult popula-
tion. health authorities the world
over have come to consider the con-
troll of tuberculosis as still the most
pressing health problem confronting
them. Every year the National Tu-
berculosis Association by selling Red
Cross Christmas Seals raises a con
siderable sum of money 10 he used in
a nationwide campaign to combat
tuberculosis. This year special eff
fort is being made to interest school
children in this work. Because of the
seriousness of the situation. | trust
that the campaign this year will be
