1. Timber. 



2. Grazing. 



3. Special uses. 



In 191 1, the total of these receipts amounted to slightly over 

 $2,000,000. In 1912, there was an increase of $100,000 and by 

 1913 the total annual receipts were practically $2,500,000. The 

 average distribution of these receipts is roughly about as follows :' 



Timber— 55 %—$ i ,350,000. 

 Grazing — 40% — $1 ,000,000. 

 Special uses — 5% — $150,000. 



In the future, there is no doubt but what the receipts from 

 timber will show the greatest increase, although steady gains in 

 grazing and special use receipts can be confidently looked for. 



Organization and Personnel. 



Perhaps the most noteworthy of mention here is the tendency 

 toward the reduction of supervisory officers in Washington and 

 in the districts. The officers in Washington were decreased by 

 placing increased responsibility upon the district officers, and 

 these in turn were reduced in number by gradually increasing 

 the responsibilities of the supervisors. 



In addition, during Mr. Graves' regime, there has been much 

 attention paid to the organization of the protective force and the 

 investigative work. There has been a marked increase in ef- 

 ficiency in both as' a result of this re-organization. 



The classification of the forest force at end of the year 1912 

 was as follows: 



Supervisors, 147 



Deputy supervisors, 9^ 



Rangers, 1393 



Guards, 7^ 



Forest examiners and forest assistants, 156 



Clerks', 171 



Miscellaneous lumber men, experts, hunters, 



etc., • 15^ 



Total, 2895
