PLAN FOR CORRECTION OF NATIONAL
FOREST BOUNDARIES IS APPROVED
Washington. The examination of
national forest boundaries carried on
by the forest officers last summer and
fall upon the Initiative of Secretary
Wilson and under his direction, has
resulted in new information, which
will make It pos'sible to restore to the
unreserved public domain much land
along the edges of and within forests
that Is not best suited to forest pur
poses. This is to be done under a
plan just approved by President Taft.
The plan was formulated by Secre
tary Wilson and Secretary Balllnger L2 per cent of the total national for-
Jointly and submitted to the presi
dent In the following letter:
February 7, 1910.
The President, the White House.
Sir: After having carefully con
sidered the matter of eliminations
from and additions to the national
forests, we respectfully recommend
that the following general policy be
adopted.
1. Lands wholly or in part covered
with brush or other undergrowth
which protects stxeamflow or checks
erosion on the watershed of any
stream important to irrigation or to
the water supply of any city, town or
community, or open lands on which
trees may be grown, should be re
tained within the national forests, un
less their permanent value under cul
tivation is greater than their value as
a protective forest.
2. Lands wholly or in part covered
with timber or undergrowth, or cut
over lands which are more valuable
for the production of trees than for
a result the boundaries can now be
more carefully corrected than has
ever before been possible.
On the whole the changes which
are found to be called for are of rel
atively minor Importance, but in their
aggregate they open to settlement a
large amount of land. The applica
tion of the rules which the presi
dent has approved will mean the early
restoration to the public domain of
4.000,000 acres or more of national
forest land. This is something over
est era. Three-tenths of the forests
have yet to be mapped.
Some of the land is suitable for
dry land agriculture, though . the
greater part is grazing land. In Ida
ho, which has a large national area,
about 470,000 acres will be eliminated
of which 34 per cent is tillable. Elim
inations In similar proportion will be
made in a number of the other west
ern states which have large amounts
of land in national forests.

Nolln, Feb. 16. Everybody Is look

to abandon the heavy responsibility

guests of the Eiysee have remarked
for some time his failing health. The
ministers urge him not to press his
resignation as a presidential election
would Imperil the success of his
party.
M. Falllerles then agreed to post
