Grafton of the commercial value of

In 1922 the national forests grazed
approximately two million head of cat
tie and horses and seven million head
of sheep, which is considerably below
the record of many previous years,
due to depression of the livestock in
dustry. The action of the secretary
therefore affects a great number of
livestock owners, and will be of ma
terial assistance to them in recovering
from their present difficulties.

that this did not mean that there
would be a departure from the COM
mercial principle of grazing fees on
the national forests. He wishes to
deal as leniently as possible with the
stock industry during the present per-

departure from the immediate appli-

The compilation and analysis OF

NO INREASE IN GRAZING
FEES BEFORE 1926

Secretary of the Interior Wallace
has announced that there will be no
raise in grazing fees on the national
forests before 1926. While the range
appraisal conducted by the forest ser
vice indicates that higher fees are
justified on most of the national for
ests, the secretary has decided that
the stock industry is not in condition
at the present time to stand the raise.
In a previous announcement, the adj
vance in grazing fees which was or
iginally intended to become effective
in 1924 was postponed to 1925. The
action of the secretary now postpohes
it until 1926.
The secretary pointed out, however,

booked to make trouble, though.

The Chicago Cubs have not to-
day the team they will eventually
put on the field. Hollocher is not
yet in uniform. Grantham and
STATE are out Of the lineup with
injuries. The Cubs are strong
in the box to make amends for
light hitting.
The Brooklyn Dodgers are blessed
with powerful pitching, but as
team the Dodgers are slow and I'M
certain. They have some fine bats

The Boston Braves, with re.

to upset some Of the dope. Dave

follows:

Dodgers at New York.
Pirates at Cincinnati.
C,'bS at st. Louis.
It ID possible that eeld weather
may bother the openings in Boston,
Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland,
bnt the fans in those cities are
hardened cusses and If the games
are played, they will all be on hand,
even though they appear in furs.
The supremacy Of the New

are admitted to have an even

Pointing toward defeating the
Yankees, practically every ball

In the National League the Reds,

to tear into the Giants from the

Before the battling begins the

Wood Alcohol Kills
A Cliffside Man

Frank .Peschuy, aged thirty-seven
years, of 243 Day avenue, Clffside,
died in Greystone Park Asylum on
Tuesday last after being there only a
short time.
Peschuy was brought from his home
last Saturday to the Hackensack jail
evidently suffering from an over in.
diligence in alcoholic spirits and in a
bad condition mentally. He became
so violent during the night that 1t be-
came necessary to place him in a pad
ded cell to prevent doing himself in
jury.
On Monday the unfortunate man
was transferred from the jail to Grey
stone Park, where his condition be-
came serious and death ensued.
An autopsy performed by the physi-
clans at the institution developed the
fact that death had been the result of
drinking wood alcohol.
The case has been reported to the
prosecutors office. County Detective
Nathan H. Allyn will conduct an in.
vestigation in an effort to learn where
Peschuy secured the poison.
