In sales of national forest timber, the cut-
ting is done under the supervision of forest
offi cers in such a way that the future timber
production of the area will not be impaired.
Grazing permits on the national forests like-
wise are issued with a due regard to perma-
nent maintenance of the forage resources.
Under the federal law, 25 percent of all
the gross receipts of the national forest is
turned over to the states and counties in
which these forests are located, to take the
place of taxes which might be collected if
the lands were in private ownership, gov-
ernment lands being exempt from taxation.
These funds are used for schools and roads
Receipts High from Oregon Forest Re-
serve
The national forests of Oregon and Wash-
ington showed the largest receipts of any
of the eight federal forest districts, taking
in $1,309,173.16 during the fi scal year that
ended June 30, 1927. This was a gain of
$195,017.72 over the receipts for that dis-
trict in the preceding fi scal year, according

ifornia district was second in total receipts,
taking in $1,162,581.38.
