"Wlthiu lb fee decades after the
Brat fedoral recognition of forestry,
and sixteen yeius from the date when
the first 'tiuibeiland reserve' was
created, I here bare been established,
n tbe Interest ot tbe wools ptopie,
150 million acres fit national forests,
effectively riotectui ngaiust fire aud
trespass, and tbrnr r open on advan
tageous terms to lhe e of tbe pub
lic" Thus reads It. i annual review
ot forest work In t'.e year book ot tbe
department cf agriculture. "Forests
bave so large a place in the national
life that in some measure every citi
zen sbarej tbe benefits wbiob atteud
successful effort to preserve, restore,
or establish them. Yet it will alwnya
be the western industiies wbiob will
most profit fiom tbe presence of the
existing national forests, upon wboxe
resource mainly wood, water and
range tbey are largely dependent.
The government always favors settlers
and home builders and prior users,
both by granting free use of timber
and byenoouraging small sales. The
business or tne national roresis must
Increase hugely; for so vast are tbe
resources ot timber and minerals, and
tbe opportunities for various business
enterprises aud lor the development
of power and irilgation, tbat tbe util

have only fairly begun.

moat prompt, simple, and precise dub
iness methods, and in bringing the
forest officers iu the field aud,
through them, the public into closer
touch with tbe alms of tbe govern
ment in its forest policy. On Jauuary

eats was 07,773,017 seres, aud on De
cember 21. 1900, 127,154,371 acres; but
the receipts increased In greater pro
portionfrom $273,000 in 1905 to U,-
004,185 in 1900. In addition, 15,000
permittees (near by settlers auu raucu
mon) weie granted timber free of
charge to tbe value ot $75,000.
"In disposing ot timber on tne na- .
tional forests, eveiy effort bas been
made to meet tbe local conditions in
eaob forest and in tbe different parts
ot each forest where tbe character ot
the timber and tbe market required
special consideration. Tbis has been
done not only by varying tbe size of
tbe trees wbiob aie cut uuder tbe
sales iu aooordance with tbe kind of
timber and tbe situation, but also by
supplying tbe needs of tbe people in
each vicinity witb tbe particular kind
of timber required by tbem in tneir
industries.
The institution of a charge for
grazing in tbe forests, with tbe adop
tion of regulations to prevent aamage
to tbe range, and witb sstisiaotory al

of tbe forests by tbe publio will also
be stimulated by thj marking of roads
and trails, giving tbe direction and
distance to tbe nearest town, ranch or

"The reoord of 1900 has confirmed
the business sucoess of the govern
ment policy, and thus given encour
agement to the development of tbe
