77 Corral Public Pasture was "built and ready for use 

 on July 21. 



On July 17 District Ranger Taylor left for the back 

 ranges on a grazing reconnaissance crip, meeting Deputy 

 ^Supervisor Jordan and party at Keltic Headow. They made 

 an extensive survey of the ranges, taking three weeks 

 for it. 7eed is above average and stool: doing finely. 



Now that the Appropriation 3111 lias passed, the trail 

 crew will start at once for the back country. I7e exrpeot to 

 have a first elaso trail down the Horth Pork by the middle 

 of September. 



Ranger Taylor made a flying trip into the back country 

 August 14 to lay out work for the trail crew, returning the 

 16th. I T -i advises all uniformed rangers to follow the Dist- 

 rict Office suggestion of wearing e. red bandanna around the 

 3ervloe hat, as hxiaters are more plentiful than deer. 



Korthfor!: District. 



In order to teat the effect of the maximum sunnier heat 

 the Office foioe did not move to 31113 lleadow thio summer, 

 "ortunately with the exception of three short hot spells It 

 has been a pleasant summer. 



The fire season to date lias not been a bad one in this 

 district, four Class J. and one Class C-l being the record. 

 However, the opening of the deer season may Increase the 

 risk to some extent. The large brush fires on our west bound- 

 ary have been conspicuously absent so far this year. 



Range stock is in fairly good shape for thio time of 

 year, but as there were no late spring rains and no summer 

 showers at all the ranges are drying up fast and will be 

 ver short by the close of the grazing season. Several of 

 the stockmen plan to gather their beef cattle by September 1 

 and there is certainly good beef on the ranges. 



The timber sale business in this district Is slightly 

 below normal this summer. However, Roberts' tray mill is 

 rca*:ing a fair out ancl ?li .I'erriman is cutting out a small 

 shake sale, vliilc 3ogard Brothers and R.D.Langworthy a 

 \7orking on shake sales fron dead timber.
