NATIONAL FOREST MANUAL GRAZING. 



If, after the transaction, the purchaser possesses all the qu alii i ca- 

 tions of the original permittee he should be allowed the same privi- 

 leges if the number of stock does not exceed the maximum limit. 

 If he does not, the privilege should be reduced accordingly. 



When a permittee in a fully stocked Forest sells the ranch property 



used in connection with his permit to a purchaser who 



^purchase of ranches desires to secure a permit for other stock and sells 



his stock elsewhere, the purchaser of the ranch will he 



given a preference over other new owners or beginners, provided that 



the original permittee relinquishes his claim to renewal. In other 



words, the only preference secured by the purchase of a ranch without 



the stock is to head the list of new beginners. 



The factors which govern this ruling are, first, the original appli- 

 cant must sign a waiver (Form 763) of renewal privileges; second, 

 the purchaser of the ranch property must possess all of the class A 

 qualifications. (See instructions under " Preferences," p. 35.) 



Applications will be numbered when they are approved. Dis- 

 Procedure approved applications will not be numbered, but 



filed alphabetically under separate guide cards. 

 Cattle and horse permits and sheep and goat permits will be num- 

 bered separately. Mules, burros, and swine will be 

 ucations 1115 f ap ~ included with the cattle and horse series. The cattle 

 and horse series will begin each season with No. 1 and 

 the sheep and goats with an arbitrary number, as 301, or 501, which 

 will be above the highest number in the cattle and horse series. Where 

 term permits are authorized, the cattle and horse term permits will be 

 numbered consecutively, beginning with No. 1, and the annual 

 permits numbered separately, beginning with a considerably higher 

 number than any term permit. The sheep and goat series will be 

 numbered similarly, the first number of tlie term permits being 301 

 or 501, as the case may be, and of the annual permits being 601 or 

 801, as the case may be. 



Amended applications received before the issue of the permit will be 

 given the same number as the original. One received afterwards 

 will be given the same number as the original with the addition of 

 the letters a, &, etc. An amended permit will be recorded on the 

 original card, but supplemental permit requires a new card. If a 

 term permittee desires an increase, which can properly be granted, a 

 new application should be made and the increase provided for by an 

 annual permit. 



If, however, the term permittee desires to decrease the number of 

 stock, a new term permit may be issued. 



The Supervisor will immediately notify the applicant of the 

 approval of his application by a letter of transmittal 

 prov1a. hod f ap ~ (Form 861-G) showing the number of stock for 

 which the application has been approved, the period 

 and the fees to be paid. Any unusual conditions may be noted on the 

 form. Whenever an amendment or a correction is made, or a supple- 

 mental application is approved, the notice will be marked "Amended," 

 "Corrected," or "Supplemental," etc. A duplicate of each Form 861-G 

 issued will be sent to the District Forester at once and a triplicate 

 filed in the Supervisor's office. 



Form 861-G for term permits will designate the year for which 

 payment is to be made, thus: "Five-year period, first year."
