the community, and the country
at large are matter which
great many people living almost
W thin sight neither know nor
appreciate.
The Weeks Law. under which
purchases Of the National Forests
in the eastern part of the United
States have been and are being
made, sets forth that the purpose
of the law is to protect the head
waters of navigable streams and
conserve the dwindling hardwood
timber supply. While these are
the primary considerations,
great many uses may be made of
the National Forests which do
not in any wav interfere with the
purpose for which they were es-
tablished.
The popular conception of the
National Forests is that they are
reserves whose resources are
locked up, to be realized upon at
some far distant day. Nothing
can be further from the truth.
Timber is sold from the Forest
every year, care being taken TO
so regulate its removal that the
cnt-over area will be left in a
condition to furnish a supply oil
timber 80. so, or 100 years hence
1t might be mentioned in thi.
connection that the crying neet
for timber is not now. This
pinch will be felt most keenly b,
the succeeding generations, an(
the function of the National For
ests is to meet this demand whei
lit becomes urgent. The presen
lcrop of mature timber is beins
| harvested therefore as rapidly a,
conditions warrant. Great car,
is exercised in operations on tn
National Forests to save tin
lyouug growth and to cut the ma
ture timber in such a way as II
avoid erosion.
u Grazing on the National For
eSts is matter of very great con
/ Cttu to many farmers who ar
: not fortunate enough to owl
grazing farms, but who can rails
enough forage to winter-feed
number of cattle. The Nationa
Forest ranges take care of som
$4,000 head of cattle for farmer
5 living in the vicinity of the For
est who are TINS situated.
Probably the recreational pos
( !sibilities present the stronges
r appeal to the average person
Their use for recreatioual pun
: lposes is not restricted. Fishing
t and hunting in accordance wit
S the State fish and game laws
permitted. Campers are welcome
: In fact, several public cam
grounds, conveniently locate
{ with respect to roads, have bee
!; laid out at various points thruou
the Forest, and improved by tn
removal of debris, the construc
tion of fire places, and sanitar
facilities. The number of visi
tors using these camp ground
. INCREASES annually, and will con
, tinue to increase from year t
. wear as the recreational advau
tages offered by the Nationa
, Forests become better known.
