Grazing of logged over land
was an innovation this year with
about 25,000 head being pastur­
ed on Columbia county lands.
With the summer grazing com­
pleted the sheep are now being
shipped to market and to winter
ranges in eastern Oregon and
Washington.
The St. Helens report states |
that more sheep are expected to |
return to Columbia county next
year.
Income from grazing next year
will be at the rate of 3^4 cents
per montji for a ewe and lamb, an
increase of one cent over the
charge this year. This is expect­
ed to be increased each year un­

But the main reason for the increase is that they are made
better—made of better tobaccos; then again the tobaccos
are blended—a blend of Domestic and Turkish tobaccos.
Chesterfield is made of mild, ripe tobaccos.
Everything that science knows about is used in
