Down in the valley of the Little

A scenic drive of varied interest has
recently been opened up to travel be-
tween Grand Canyon and Flagstaff
by way of Cameron. There is not a
days drive in the state which brings
into view a wider range of scenery.
Forests of pine, juniper, pinyon, sage
brush, flats, grassy plains, barren
deserts, deep canyons and great
mountains are all part of the pic
ture along the way.
From Grand Canyon the road for
fifteen miles eastward traverses a
virgin forest of yellow pine.
Then a gradual descent begins into
the valley of the Little Colorado. The
pines are succeeded by juniper and
pinyon, which in trun give way to
sage brush lands. Then comes the
grassy valley of the Little Colorado.
For many miles the road follows
along the brink of the chasm OF the
Little Colorado. The canyon of the
Little, Colorado lacks the stupendous-
ness of the great gorge. But this IN
itself is regarded by many as an at
traction rather than disadvantage.
One can become much better acqualn-
ted with the canyon of the Little Col
orado. The approach is easier, one
can get a closer perspective, and the
eve grasps the picture in its entirety
Davs are required to view the Grand
Canyon in all its comprehenslveness
and endless detail.
The canyon of the Little Colorado,
known to only a comparatively few
people, is dwarfed by its mighty
neighbor. Were the Grand Canyon
elsewhere, the Little Colorado chasm
would have become famous long ago.
The canyon of the Little Colorado
is a great deep and narrow cash IN
the plains. From the thread of the
stream far below red sandstone cliffs
rise for a thousand feet. In some To-
calities it is possible almost to cast a
stone across the cleft that the stream
has cut deep into the soft sand rock,
while the Grand Canyon averages IA
miles from rim to rim.
At those rare intervals when the
Little Colorado is in flood, the speeta-
Gle of the muddy waters racing
through the narrow gorge far below
is a sight rarely equalled. The roar
and crash and mad tumbling of the
torrent is like an inferno.
Far down in the gorge in protective
overhanging caverns are many ruins
of the ancient cliff dwellers. The
scientific exploration of these almost
inaccessible dwellings of the abort
gines at some future date will doubt
less bring to light many interesting
relics of their culture. The number
of the cliff dwellings reveals that at
some time in the past the canyon was
the home of a considerable popula-
ton. Many picture writings of the

INDIANS ASK FLAT
RATES ON FILM JOB

Indians look on picture work as the
easiest graft in the world and they
ask flat prices for their services.
Navajo Indians on the reservation
near Tuba City are among the best
native actors and incidentally they
ask the lowest pay of all the great
tribesy
Three dollars is al they demand for
full days work lasting from sun
rise to sundown. They take care Of
their own lodging and feed them
selves. They make one stipulation,
however, as the Metropolitan company
of players, filming "The Last From
tier" on the reservation discovered,
and that is that they must be pro-
vided with at least one great feast
each week.
The feast consists of enough barbe-
cued beef to go around. The natives
cook the meat themselves and eat it
nearly raw. Then they want coffee
and plenty of tobacco with perhaps a
loaf of bread each, which they con-
slider great delicacy.
The Hopi Indians are sterner in
their demands. Their price also is
a gift of trinkets, and if these are
not Forthcoming with the expected
regularity, they will pack their blan-
kets and leave.
In sharp contrast to the modest de-
mands of the Navajoes and Hopis is

These figures constitute the annual
estimate of big game animals on ma
tional forests as of December 31st,
1925, and Mr.. Barnes says of the fig
ures given:
"These figures of course are by no
means absolute and are not given
out as such. They are estimates
made by our forest officers, who
spend a large portion of their time
in the woods, and are the result Of
their careful observation during the
entire year. In one or two cases
where the figures show marked
changes this is due to more careful
estimates and recheck of those made
during the preceding year.
Antelope
Taking the national forest states
as a whole, antelope show an increase
over previous years, part of which is
due to migratioHs of these animals
from the lower, open ranges which
they have always used into the high
er mountain regions. This migra-
ton of the antelope is a complete
change in their ordinary life habit.
In the early days when they We're
more plentiful they were seldom seen
in the mountains, preferring the open
plain country. With the occupation
of these feeding grounds by local
stock the antelope have been forced
into the higher timbered areas.
According to the reports of the
bureau of biological survey of the de-
partment of agriculture, there were
about 10000 antelope in the entire
United States in 1924. The present
census shows approximately $500
antelope as being found in national
forest areas, or about one-fourth Of
the total.
With the establishment of a num-
Der of state game refugees as in Ne
vada, southeastern Oregon, and other
western states covering ranges where
antelope are found in large numbers,
together with fine public sentiment
favoring the complete protection of
these little animals, their future pre-
servation seems reasonably well as
sured. So far they have not thrived
where held in fenced Enclosures even
of large size.
The Coconino sun., 1926-09-03

because, due to the prevalence of the
foot -and-mouth disease in that state,
it was necessary to kill over $4,000
deer on the Stanislaus national for
est.
Considering the comparatively small
area within the White mountain ma
tional forest, the major portion or
which is in New Hampshire, togeth-
er with the density of population in
the region surrounding it and the tre-
mendous number of summer visitors
it has every year, it is interesting to
learn that there are over 1000 deer
existing within that one national for
est.
Increases are generally believed to
be due to local conditions such as
unsatisfactory hunting seasons, bet
ter enforcement Of game laws, des-
truction Of predatory animals by gov
ernment or state hunters, and IN two
or three Of the states conplete pro-
hibition of hunting owing to danger
from forest fires.
The total kill Of deer by local hunt
ers as reported will not run much
over ten per cent of the herds As
suming that the number Of hunters
in the hills and their kill are approx
imately correct, apparently only about
one out Of every three hunters who
went into the forests last fall was
successful. Our men attribute this
to the autos and extension of roads
which now bring thousands OF new
inexperienced hunters into the woods.
Elk
Elk continue to increase in NUM-
bers. In a number of the states
where plants of these animals have
been made in recent years they have
increased so rapidly that the state
game authorities in both Utah and
South Dakota have announced a spec
ial open season during which limit
ed number could be killed. The gov
ernment has also been forced to dls-
pose of large number Of elk within
fenced game refugees, where the AMI
mails had so increased in numbers
that it was absolutely necessary to
make reductions to prevent overgraz-
ing and possibly losses from lack OF
forage.

Mountain Sheep and Mountain Goats

Mountain Sheep and Mountain Goats
These animals generally are hold
ing their own, in spite of the pre-
valent feeling that they are in dang
er Of complete extinction. 1t is the
belief Of many persons that the graz
ing of domestic sheep in the higher
ranges of some of the western for
ests where both these animals are
found imperils the future of the wild
sheep and goats. The forest service
Is restricting grazing where there is
the least possibility of competition
between the domestic stock and these
two classes of wild game.
Beaver
This is the first year the forest
service has endeavored to estimate
and report the number of beaver
found in the various national forests.
The reports show a total of over
114,O00 beaver on the national for
ests, exclusive of Alaska. This is
not shown on the accompanying
sheets but the figures indicate that
the beaver is by no means extinct
and under present methods of pro-
lection is increasing at very salts
factory rate. The state of Colorado
stands at the head of this list, with
over 47,00O of the animals; Montana
being second with over $4,000
In all probability there are half as
many more occupying areas outside
of the national forests
1t should be understood clearly that
our census figures apply to the big
game animals using only the national
forests for practically the entire
year. They do not take into con-
sideration those found on the adloin-
ing areas outside the National For

Bear
The sentiment to consider bear, es-

brown bear, is growing throughout
the west and in large number of
states the bear is now classed as a
game animal, to be hunted only at
such time Of year as the fur is Of
prime quality. The reports show an
increase of about 1000 bear, due I'M
