C. W. WATSON JOINS IDAHO STAFF 

 In line with her policy to render most ef- 

 cient service by increasing the facilities 

 for instruction in proportion to the de- 

 mands of an increasingly large enrollment 

 the School of Forestry at the University 

 of Idaho has secured the service of Qar- 

 ence W. Watson, as a new Instructor in 

 Forestry for the present school year. Mr. 

 Watson received his degree of Bachelor 

 of Philosophy from the Sheffield Scientif- 

 ic School of Yale University in 1916 and 

 after an interruption of two years dur- 

 ing the war completed his graduate 

 work at the Yale School of Forestry for 

 the degree of Master of Forestry in 1920. 

 Mr. Watson served 16 months in France 

 with the Engineers, during which time he 

 was engaged primarily on engineering as- 

 signments. In 1920 Mr. Watson was 

 awarded a scholarship from the American 

 Scandinavan Scholarship Exchange and he 

 has just returned from a year's study of 

 forestry in Sweden. He will handle the 

 courses in Silviculture and Grazing at the 

 University of Idaho and under his compe- 

 tent leadership this department will be de- 

 veloped and maintained at the highest pos- 

 sible standard. 



MONEY FROM FORESTS 



Twenty-eight States have received checks 

 totaling $619,993 from the United States 

 Treasury as their share of the receipts from 

 the National Forests for the fiscal year 

 ending June 30. An additional $247,997 of 

 the receipts has become available for road 

 and trail construction by the Forest Service 

 of the United States Department of Agri- 

 culture within the National Forests of these 

 same States ; making a grand total of $867.- 

 990. 



The amounts are considerably smaller 

 than for the previous fiscal year, when the 

 total was $1,652,088. This is due largely 

 to the concession made by Congress to 

 stockmen, whereby they are allowed until 

 December i to pay their grazing fees due 

 last spring. This action was made necessary 

 by the widespread depression in the live 

 stock business. A small portion of the re- 

 duction is due also to a falling off in timber 

 sale receipts of the forests due to business 

 conditions. 



Only States within which National For- 

 ests exist share in the receipts. By Act 

 of Congress, 25 per cent of the funds de- 

 rived from timber sales, grazing fees, spe- 

 cial uses, etc., are returned to the States for 

 roads and schools. The amount thus re- 

 ceived is redistributed to counties in lieu 

 of taxes, based on the area of National 

 Forest land within their boundaries. In 

 addition, 10 per cent of the forest receipts 

 are sipent within the counties by the Forest 

 Service on road and trail construction and 

 maintenance.
