several Hamey eitiiens for cutting Um

men have been making this a practice
for year before the reaerve waa creat
ed, and thought it no harm to continue
tba practice. Last fall was th first
time a forest guard has been stationed
here to give permit for catting timber
for wood and other purposes. There
has always been plenty of timber out

fqr building purpose until lately,
whan it wat all secured by outside peo
