BUTTE FALLS ITEMS.
Plans for Forest Service
Headquarters Are Near
ly Completed.
Plans fur the Format Service fit-Ul
lu'iuliiart th wlm-h an soon to be on
t.ihlislicd in the west art being vnpitl Iv
worked out in detitil. Kaeli liiitdtimr
ters will he minified alter ttie Washing
kiii in inc. in ;u mere win he nix His
triet headquarters, urn lm-aled at eacli
of the present inspection district head
quarters Cortland, San Francisco, Al
lnupiertpie, Salt Lake, Denver mid Mis-
soma, Aiiintnna, or so utlicr points
equally well or l.etler located for the
purpose.
At the head of each office there will
bo a District Forester and an Assistant
Dietriet Forester. 1'nder these there
will be experts in charge of the various
lines of work. A Chief of Crazini; will
have charge of range matters. A Chief
of J 'rod net h will handle the preservativ
treatment of timber and strength tests
and .study market conditions. A Chief
of Lands wil look after such matters
as land exeminntinns. The office of
Lands deals with the qiicstinmt invnlv
ing the validity of claims aserted under
tho public land laws; applications for
Bpeeinl use of the resources of the
National Forests; changes in boundaries'
ot borests, nnd the examinations of
landa applied for under tho Act of .Tune
11, l!HHi, fur agricultural purposes.
i ne r oresi service, however, never
passes on the titles themselves. That
is entirely n matter for tho i( neral
Land Office to decide. In the case of
applications for homesteads nndT the
Act of June 11, limit, the Forest Service
is called upon to decide whether (In
land is in fact more valuable for r.trri-
culture or for timber, and if it is, to
recommend its listing as open In entry
and patent. In the caseof claims ',1m
Service ascertains whether any facts
exist which teem to aliav.- that the claim
is not a legal one, in order Hint the
National Forest land may not be un
lawfully taken up. Hut it rests alwavs
with the Land Of fie? of hc Interior
Department to deeiuo whether the title
should or should not be granted. Tho
branch of Lands in the District Forest
Service organization does uol menu any
now assumption of land busiue-w.
There will also be in each district a
Chief of Silviculture, who will have
t-hnrge of timber sales, planting, and
fulvicnl experiment: , and a Chief nf
Operation. The latter will supervise Ihe
personnel of the Forests; the permanent
improvement work, through an engineer
in charge, the accounts of the district,
including receipts, disbursements, n.id
bookkeeping, which will be dirocMy
supervised by an expert accouninnt;
and tho routine business of the district.
In each of the lines of work iiie iiir.ii
ngement will be in the hands of a man
who is n specialist and who has had
thorough experience both in t i:e west
: in Washington. The f.n-e-iers i.ud
clerks nl each district headquarter.- will
number about fifty. The establishment
of there field distrieets will bring the
Service into more immediate touch wiili
the public. It is merely the complelion
of the movement started some tim. ag.
to have the Forests administered r.s far
as possible by men actually on the
ground.
Tie change will not affect I lie invest i
g.'itve work of ihe Service, wliii-1: will
oe nter, as hit herto, in Wnsliingtr.il.
Mr. Pinchot is expected soon to name
the men who will fill the various
positions.
HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
SCARCE IN CALIFORNIA
SACK A M KXTO, Cnl.. August IX
Comment was excited in the state board
of education today by I he report of the
ntate superintendent of public instruc
tion, Hyatt, in which he gives figures
to show that there is an alarming de
crease in the number of high scl I
children in the first to fourth years.
The statistics nre for the year litn?
H08, nnd nre based on the attendance
all over the state. It is shown that out
of a total registration of 7o7i x,vs nnd
7S",.t girls in the high schools for the
first year course, there, are only 1 ijr,
boys nnd -117 girls i the senior grade.
This means that between the tirst mid
fourth yenr thnt .;).-( boys and .V77
girls have dropped their high school
work.
Superintend nt Hyatt declares that
the proper remedy for this condition i
to offer a more varit-d course nf itud
it:s in the high school.
