Grazing‘ is second only to lumbering as a principal use of the National for- ests. Practically all. of the National forests ilsed extensively for grazing purposes are within the eleven States extending east from the Paci Coast. known as the “Far Western Group.” These States contain, according to latest reports. 8,546,000 cattle, 2,810,000 horses and mules. and 28,366,000 sheep. The National. forests support in these States 17 per cent of the total number of cattle grazed, 3.48 per cent of horses and mules, and 27.5 per cent. of sheep. ‘ This output. according to the forest service, does not involve any material sacri of forest or watershed protec- tion or permanent forage productivity on the National forests.

The load exclusive of the operator weighed 705 pounds, and the \boat weighs about 1,400 pounds. The hum of the propeller could be plainly heard in Penn Yan, and many people went out doors to get a look at the aerial craft. But the . ! were made so low on account of the wind, that the boats could not be seen by people far from the lake. ' The Elmira Advertiser. The Elmira Advertiser announced on September 29th, that J.
