Grazing. Paragraph 6 of the Instructions on page 47 is hereby 

 amended to read as follows : 



In order to prevent speculation, when a Forest is fully stocked, 

 renewal of permit will not be allowed a purchaser of permitted 

 stock if the original permittee has used the range less than three 

 years. A permit granted because of the purchase of permitted stock 

 may, however, ~be renewed to a second purchaser after the expira- 

 tion of one year from the date of tlie permit issued the first pur- 

 chaser. This rule will also apply when the permittee who proposes 

 to sell is a member of a partnership.
