cation of transportation facilities) and perhaps permits for water 

 power, contributed to the increase in receipts ; but officials believe that 

 the main increase is due to the number of live stock grazed, which 

 yielded over $1,700,000, timber sales yielding the next largest amount, 

 namely, $1,500,000. Other forms of activity brought in $120,000, the 

 sale of turpentine privileges on the Florida Forest a little over $8,000. 

 The use of the National Forests is to a great extent free. For in- 

 stance, settlers and residents of small communities in and near the for- 

 ests are allowed without charge reasonable amounts of wood for fuel ; 

 settlers may obtain timber for use in the improvement and maintenance 

 of farms and are given the privilege to graze free not to exceed ten 

 head of milch and work animals.
