This is particularly important to Jackson county stockmen with an estimated 8,500 head of cattle grazing on government range in late spring and summer months. BLM estimates are 5,000 cattle and 2,000 sheep on its range land within the county. Rogue National Forest offi cials estimate 3,500 cattle use their ranges. Both agencies estimate that about 4,000 sheep graze on government range lands or 2,000 on lands under the jurisidiction of each of the agencies. Edward Woozley, director, bureau of land management, further pointed up the impor tance of this program during his talk here. "A license-for livestock numbers permitted to use federal range has tak en on financial value because these licenses and permits can be used as collateral for loans and are taken into account when ranch properties are bought or sold. Some opera tors strenuously resist reduc tions in licensed use even though those reductions may only be on paper," he pointed out. Surveys Explained . "It is unfair to sell proper ty which carries a license for more livestock than the ranch er does run or can run since a buyer would be paying for something he simply isn't get ting," the 3LM director said. "It is a fact that some ranges are over-obligated on paper but are not actually being overgrazed." Many variables must be considered by the resource technician when making range surveys, Woozley ex plained. These are soil types, amount and season of rainfall and snowfall, temperature, winds, topography, availabil ity! of water, and. many more such factors. "Such determinations re quire judgment and many range users have used the for mal appeals procedure to pro test decisions that have been made," the BLM director said. SINDEN 9m Sf MfcCKlNt HUNTIi W "-4 -i if f ' 7 1 ' i -Mt- ti 1 The forage available on public lands in 1960-exclusive of Alaska-is estimated at 17 million animal - unit months. As a result of the intensified range management and accel erated range conservation and improvement programs, it is estimated that the available forage will have increased to 29 million animal -unit-months by 1980 and to 46 mil lion animal - unit - months by the year 2012. These increases will result in the modification of many existing permits and the issuance of permits to new applicants who are not .pres ently users of the , federal range," the BLM director said. During the past five years surveys of existing range con ditions have been completed for all grazing districts in 10 western stales. By repeating these surveys at five year in tervals a comparison of re sults will show the changes in vegetation and soil mantle which have occurred and whether trends in range con ditions are upward, static, or downward, Woozley ex plained. Study Results Given "Results of the range condi tion studies show that some 25 per cent of Oregon's fed eral range is improving. About 51 per cent is more or less in status quo, now under treatment, while about 25 per Camp Fire Girls Tami Tan Da Group Mrs. Katie Compiler's group recently elected the following officers: President, Mary Lou Croy; vice president, Mary Jo Campbell; . secretary, Diane Briggs; treasurer, Cathy Com piler; and reporter, Glenda Furry. The other five mem bers are Mindy Hackett, Mary Davis, Sharon Brown and Gale Blake. The group went on a hike on Mt. Ashland on Saturday, November 5, to earn our trail seeker's rank. Each girl has to pick out three plants to put in a memory book. The memory books are made of plywood. The Camp Fire girls earn many beads. You can earn them for going on hikes and camping trips, cooking meals over campfires, building fires, exploring and collecting ob jects of nature, helping and protecting nature. These crafts are just some of the things you can do to earn your beads'. Last year a Camp Fire Girl received 75 beads for cooking, doing household chores, and singing in church. We hope that we can get many girls into other groups. Glenda Furry, Reporter PINS FROM WIRE New Haven - Modern pins made from wire were first produced in France and Ger many.

BLM's 52-year land and re sources conservation plan in ventory shows need to con trol brush on approximately 3J4 million acres, seeding of 1.6 million acres, construction of 5,070 miles of fencing, de velopment of 3,650 water sources for livestock and wild life and construction of 6,725 small erosion control checks and dams, the BLM director listed. "During the current year 36,000 acres have been sched uled for seeding and brush control treatment," Woozley noted. "It is estimated that the increased forage production on the treated lands will be sufficient for about 1,150 cat tle for a six-month grazing period. Direct cost of this year's seeding and brush con trol work will total about $121,000. It has been estimat ed that the commercial value of the increased production alone will be about $16,000 annually when the land has reached full production. Recreation Program! Referring to use of public land for recreation, Woozley pointed out that illegal post ing of federal land indicating closure has been improved greatly. Access roads are be ing constructed into areas that were previously inacces sible or are constructed to by pass private property. Ex change of use agreements are being developed with land owners that serves to make certain private land available for public use in lieu of iso lated tracts of federal land, Improved working relation ships are being developed be tween the landowner and the sportsmen, the BLM chief said. "Certainly the sportsman must accept major responsi bility in any program in or der to prevent damage to ana depredations upon the land in volved," Woozley pointed out. The Steens mountain area is a good example of what the bureau Is doing to meet the increasing needs of the public. This has been desig nated as a multiple-use land management area recently. Making the land improper for private disposition will facili tate plans for the BLM to work out balanced mutiple use programs involving inte grated range management, watershed, wildlife, and hunt ing, camping and fishing ac tivities of the public. Im proved management of the doer herd will contribute to increased forage productivity. Construction of some of the major access roads were com pleted prior to this year's deer hunt, the BLM director said. Harney county has hard topped several miles of coun ty road leading into this coun try to be served by access roads. The Oregon state game commission also contributed cattleguards.

Closed Sundays m m MDMW Supreme Court Lectures South On Evils of 'Fencing' Washington -lUPil- Southern states today were digesting a sharp Supreme court lecture on the evils of "fencing" Ne groes out of their voting rights. The court unanimously or dered a federal trial in Mont gomery, Ala., on Negro com plaints that the state of Ala bama redrew the city bound aries of Tuskegce in order to disenfranchise them. In issuing the order, the high court stepped into an area lt has studiously avoided in the past. Out of Political Arena Fourteen years ago, Justice Felix Frankfurter referred to the subject of voting reappor tionment as a "political thick et" where the federal courts should not venture. Monday, he said the circumstances of the Tuskegee case lifted it "out of the so-called 'political' arena and into the convention al sphere of Constitutional lit igation.

C. 65 SHOPPING fFWTfff Stale power is not insulated from federal judicial review, Frankfurter said, when it is used to circumvent "a federal ly protected right." The 15th amendment to the Constitution forbids states to pass laws depriving citizens of their vote because of race. Frankfurter said if the alle gations of the Tuskegee Ne groes remained uncontradict ed or unqualified, "the con clusion would be irresistible, tantamount for all practical purposes to a mathematical demonstration, that the legis lation is solely concerned with segregating while and colored voters by fencing Ne gro citizens out of town so as to deprive them of their pre existing municipal vote." To Examine Decision The Supreme court also agreed Monday to examine an Appeals court decision which the Atomic Energy commission claims would Im pair its program for peaceful uses of atomic energy.

Pharmacy Phacts From GENE WESTLAND We like to know that peopl ar nterested in the pharmaceutical profession. Just the other day wa were asked "Is a chemical a drug?" We're always glad to answer questions like this because we'vs found that many of our customers con fuse the identifica tion of a drug with its a p p I I c ation. They are two very different things. Actually, a chemt- cal substance is a drug when (1) its uses have been medically-proved; (2) when your physician has been completely informed about its pow ers, and (3) when it is finally, eas ily available to you, the patient.
