 the present standing timber but also the 

 possibility of producing new growths."

"I read your magazine with great enjoy- 

 ment." 



Thomas F. Taylor.

FREAK LIGHTNING FATAL TO 

 SHEEP 



LIGHTNING recently struck into a 

 band of about 1,250 old sheep on the 

 Wasatch Forest killing 504 head out- 

 right. About 400 head were yearlings and 

 two-year-old ewes. The lightning was 

 forked and made two streaks of dead 

 sheep across the bed ground, leaving a 

 space in the center where no sheep were 

 killed. The loss is estimated to be about 

 $10,000. The herders who were sleeping 

 about 200 feet away escaped unscratched. 



p O-OPERATIVE arrangements have 

 been made with 126 individual owners 

 controlling about 250,000 acres of timber 

 lands in California, whereby the Forest 

 Service assumes the detection and fight- 

 ing of all fires that may occur. The lands 

 are situated within the territory covered 

 by the rangers of the Eldorado and Tahoe 

 Forests. This protection is obtained at an 

 average cost of 1J4 cents per acre paid by 

 the owners.
