ADVICE FOR

With the rise in prices for wool for
the 1922 clip and the recent rise in
sheep values, Nevada sheep men are
cautioned not to bank on a continu-
ance of this condition. General opin-
ion is that the present situation is not
due to natural conditions or at least
to a general readjustment of those
conditions which threw prices out of
balance. 1t is u sincere hope that
prices will not again reach the low
levels of 1921, but Just the same,
hang on to the slack in the rope
which appears certain for this years
crop and make time and money count
to the utmost. Better be safe than
sorry. especially after recent expert
ences.-Nevada Stockgrower.

DELINQUENT GRAZING FEES

The Forest Supervisor at Austin,
Nevada, has received the following
information concerning payment of
deferred grazing fees for the seaso
1921, from the Washington office:
"All persons who do not pay cash
for 1921 grazing fee or submit a prop
osition of settlement and a note by
March 1, will be expected to pay the
full forage value. This will be de-
termined in the usual manner in graz
ing trespass cases ON the number of
stock actually grazed for the length
of time they actually grazed, at the
minimum rate of -four cents per day,
per head, for cattle and one-fourth
cent per day per head for sheep.
Those who desire to give their note
not later than March will be charged
the grazing fees plus SO additional
and will be expected to pay interest
at the rate of " per month from
December l on the grazing fee, but
not on the amount of the penalty"
This means that il delinquent graz
ing fees are not settled promptly,
that a very material increase in the
amount necessary to settle after
March 1, will be made. The grazing
fees will be collectable with SO add
ed for collection fees, interest on the
grazing fees at the rate of " 20 per
month, and possibly trespass charges
for actual forage value, the minimum
rate of which is four cents per head
per day for cattle and one-fourth cent
per head per day for sheep for the
full time stock were actually grazed.

President Harding may soon take
personal part in the effort to enforce

people into an enforcement army.
Federal authorities arc disappointed
over tho cooperation they are getting
from the States. which are Jointly re-

dry laws. Sheriffs and city officers
are loafing on the job in many States,

Of checking it, the Washington Ad-
