STANDARD LUMBER
MILL BUYS BIG TRACT
OF TIMBER LAND

A contract has been approved by
District Forester Pooler covering
sale of seven and one-half million feet
of western yellow pine saw timber on
the Sitgreaves national forest in Ar1-
zona, at 81 per thousand to Standard
Lumber Mills.
The plant of the Standard Lumber
Mills is a circular saw mill with a
daily capacity of about $4,000 feet. 1t
is situated on Mortenson Wash, south
west of Pinedale. The power is fur
nished by steam-driven engins with
battery of two boilers using slab
waste, edgings and sawdust for fuel
Logs will be conveyed from the
woods to the mill on eight-wheeled
logging trucks drawn by horses. Man
ufactured lumber will include all
classes of common building material
and probably some railroad cross
ties. The lumber will be hauled by
motor truck and wagons to Snowflake,
the nearest suitable shipping point.
From there it will reach outside mar
kets over the Apache railroad.
Special features of the Standard
Lumber Mills, Inc. contract, according
to the forest service, provide that at
least two-thirds of the standing tim
Der, IL or more inches in diameter will
be marked for cutting. Fast growing
young trees less than IL inches to-
gether with many additional thrifty
trees as may be necessary will be
left for seed production to insure re-
stocking over the cut areas The
young trees will provide another cut
in about IS years. Brush from the
cutting area will be piled and burned
in order to reduce fire hazard except
that falling with 40 feet of drain
age channel will be thrown into the
channel as a prevention against
erosion.
Western yellow pine which is chief
lumber species of the southwest, is
the basis of the sale to the Standard
Lumber Mills. There are vast areas
of this class of timber on the Sit
greaves national forest. 1t is estl-
mated that by securing immediate re-
tforestation on cutover lands through
controlled grazing and the. prevention
of forest fires, 80 million feet of tim
ber can be cut from the Sitgreaves
| forest and kept up forever without
| lessening the producing power OF the
| forest. The whole forest is handled
under management plan which pro-
vides for timber growth under such
system. The Standard sale is from
1410 acres in what is called the Mo-
| gollon working circle.

Livestock and Ranges In
Arizona and New Mexico

While rainfall has been somewhat
scattered in character heavy falls
have occurred in places and the gen
eral trend has been toward better
ment of ranges and improvement in
condition of stock. Heavy storms
have occurred in the White mountain
region 2.60 inches being reported for
the past week. No rain fell in the
Grand Canyon section and only light
rain in the Flagstaff and Williams
sections. Recent rains in the Flag
staff section have benefited ranges
considerably but owing to their scat
tered character leave much to be de-
sired. Continued Improvement of
range conditions in western New
Mexico is reported.

$4,000 DEER NOW In
THE SOUTHWESTERN
NATIONAL FORESTS

Cumulative summary of big game on
the national forests just recently COM
piled by the forest service shows over
1900 deer on the national forests in
Arizona exclusive of the Kaibab for
est and more than $4,000 ON the New
Mexico forests. Elk are increasing in
Arizona and holding their own in New
Mexico. Antelope show some gain but
mountain sheep are at standstill.
Each winter" says District For
ester F. C. w. Pooler, forest rangers
them make as close an estimate as is
possible for a census of big game on
their districts. The term big game
in the southwest, includes antelope,
deer, elk and mountain sheep. The
figures submitted by the rangers are
brought together and tables made up
for the various forests. The compila-
tions for a state or region furnish a
good index as to whether game ami
facing extinction"
In the open yellow pine forests like
the Coconino and Sitgreaves forests OF
northern Arizona, deer are gradually
becoming fewer year by year, the re-
port indicates. This is probably due
to the fact that men and autos can
get into almost every portion of the
forests. The secluded places where
deer can roam, feed and rear their
young unmolester are scarce. On the
other hand, in the high rugged country
like the Gila and Datil forests in New
Mexico, where there are few or no
roads. deer are on the increase, or at
least maintaining their numbers, ac-
cording to the report.
There are about 1900 antelope on
the forests in Arizona and around
800 in New Mexico. The southwest is
not primarily an elk country, but
there are something like 400 elk in
Arizona, mostly on the west end of
the Sitgreaves forest. These are pro-
tected by the game laws and the num-
ber is increasing. A small band on
the Santa Fe forest in New Mexico
remains about the same in number
from year to year. Mountain sheep
number only 208 for both Arizona and
New Mexico and the majority of these
are on the Guadalupe division of the
Lincoln forest in southeastern New
Mexico.
The figures given in the cumulative
census made by the forest service are
not, of course, the results of actual
count. In dealing with big game,
numbers must of necessity be prox-
imations, but forest officers are be-
coming more skilled in these estimates
year by year SO that the big game
census of the forest service is gen
orally accepted as furnishing the best
available data that can be compiled.
The forest service report does not il
ude game animals on lands outside
of the national forests of which, among
Indian reservations, state lands and
grants, there are considerable areas
of similar topography. Neither does
the $4,000 deer given for the national
forests of Arizona and New Mexico in
clude the Kaibab national forest sit
uated north of the Grand Canyon.
That forest which is a national game
preserve and is administered by the
district forester at Ogden, Utah, is
said to have 10000 deer and the herds
are steadily increasing.

THOUSANDS SEE
ANIMAL CIRCUS
ANIMAL MENAGERIE AT pow.
ELL INTERESTING EVENT

Monday was circus day in Park
county and every section of PARK
county as well as northern Big
Horn county and southern Montana
came to Powell to see the AL. G..
Barnes Wild Animal circus which
played there that afternoon and ev-
ening. 1t is said that $500 people
attended the two performances at
Powell.
The AL. Barnes Animal circus and
menagerie is a good one, and those
attending have no just cause for
complaint. and from what can be
heard are making none. As ~circuses
go. the AL. Barnes aggregation is
the unusual. Everything was car
ried on in an orderly and efficient
rfanner, the dealings with the local
people were all carried on in a fair
and square ann and the impress
sion which this circus has left in
the Big Horn basin is a very good
one.
AS to the animal menagerie it is
without doubt unequalled in the
United States. 1t was by far the
largest exhibit of wild animal life
ever brought to the Basin and the
training which some of these beasts
of the jungle have been given Is
marvellous.
Far from being the least part of
the attraction was the fifty trained
horses. of every breed known, ana
marked in the most beautiful and
unusual These horses gave
an act that is seldom excelled and
demonstrated the thoroughness of
the Barnes animal training.
Dozens of other acts made up the
program for the three ring circus,
and the stunts by the monkeys and
clowns kept the young folks amused
from the time the show started
until the finish.
The circus is making a tour Of
the northwest and stopped in Wy
oming but four times. Once at
