 quarters bv the first of October, and the temporary 

 telethons line to I'eono was picked up by Assistant Ranger

 ' . Jotter and I also cruised, in a rough way, a prospec-

 Govern-rent land and an excellent mill site 011 Uuclreye 

 Creek for a saw mill plant. 



Lumber vas bought at Trinity Center for a barn 

 on Trinity '.our.tain Hanger Station, and hauled to the 

 eite after about two months delay. It being too late in 

 the oeaaon to build, I made a trip over and piled the 

 lumber In good shape for winter. 



Our annual grazing report, accompanied by a report 

 en the grazing capacity of private lands, and tracings 

 shovrirr, thf> private lands, wae no small Job this "ear.

 hard work on thin Job. Tie district being within the 

 railroad land grant an-?. v:ithln the Kinercville raining 

 district, 're certainly hai something to do. Our report 

 did not reach the '"upervioor's office on the c!ate set by
