De partment of Agriculture against , eliminating from tho nntlounl for ests nou-tlmberod lands chiefly vnl nble for grazing nro regarded by Secretary Wlloon as Indicating that ninny communities fall to realize the limitations within which the depart ment must net In carrying out faith fully tho Intent of tho existing laws. Most of tho protests set forth tho In Jury which It Is feared may result from unregulated grating on tho land to bo eliminated. Since, howover, the laud which It Is proposed to eliminate nro neither forested now nor regnrded as suitable for tho fu ture growing of trees, tho government hns no authority to hold them ns parts of the Natlonnl Forests aftof their actual charactor has boon de termined. Tho policy to bo pursued with re gard to such lands was rocontly agreed upon by tho secretary of ag riculture nnd the sccrotnry of tho in terior Jointly nnd laid before the president, who gave It his approval. This policy Is not an innovation but It Is tho samo policy which hns always been nppllcd by tho forest sorvlco In deckling whoro tho national forest boundaries should bn drawn. The reason why lands formerly included in national forests aro now boing eliminated is to bo found not In n change of policy, but in tho fact that tho actual conditions wore ascer tained last year, for tho first time, through careful boundary examina tions. . Tho evils feared by thoso who aro now making protest against the ex clusion of tho lands In question nro usually of two kinds. In ninny places residents find thomsolvcs llkoly to suffer from an Invasion of tho range of outsiders. If tho graz ing Is uncontrolled, translont stock may not only eat up tho forago but also deploto tho range through ovor- grazing, to tho loss and ovon to the eventual ruin of tho locul stock ownoi-H, Although Secretary Wilson recognUoH thin to bo tho case, ho has pointed out to UtoHo wlio mnlto this argument that government control of, lands valuable only for grazing was not contemplated by tho Inws author Izlng tho creation of national forests, except "ha far us In necessary to nocuro practical ndtnliilHtrnttvo houndarlos. Another ground of protests ngalnnt tho eliminations Is that administra tion by tho department of agriculture has already resulted In great Im provement to tho water flow, or that unregulated grazing will result In polluted stromas or serious damage to water sheds. In noma rases tho tncrenso In water supply which has followed tho national furest adminis tration tit put ns high as 25 per cent. To thoso who make this point Secre tary Wilson Is replying that overy effort has been made to tmfogtinrd water supplies; that tho eliminations proposed are only nlong bordoiB of the forests, and tho protection of water flow Is recognized bh a leg itimate reason for retaining brush laud even though It Is not likely ever to grow timber of comorclal value. It Is not dented that In come cases tho elimination of puro grazing lands tuny .possibly result In a certain amount of stream pollution, but tho department of agriculture holds It lias no authority to try to prevent this through national forest adminis tration of such lauds. In main It Is believed that tho Interests of water-. users havo been well cared for In making tho eliminations, NOTICE.
