Mac Kenzle, Portland, Oregon, says that great progress is being made in the economical handling of. stock on the national forest ranges. More than three score stock association, are organized in Oregon and Washing on to co-opeate with the forest ser vice. They also co-operate with one another. A unique Instance of this Is seen In plans devised to prolong the serviceable period of bull, on the range. Many associations purchase all bulls for service on the national for est range occupied by the cattle of their members in order to Insure that only high grade animal, will be turned out. Because of the III effects of inbreeding, usually the serviceable period of a bull on tho range Is two years. To prolong this period to at least ten years, one association plans to exchange bulls with another at the end of each two year. The forest I service Is encouraging these plans, I for It means the production of only I high grade and valuable stock on the ; national forest ranges.
