TO THE PUBLIC. 



The timber, water, pasture, mineral, and other re- 

 sources of the forest reserves are for the use of the 

 people. They may be obtained under reasonable con- 

 ditions without delay. Legitimate improvements and 

 business enterprises are encouraged. 



Forest reserves are open to all persons for all lawful 

 purposes. 



Persons who wish to make any use of the resources 

 of a forest reserve for which a permit is required 

 should consult the nearest forest officer. 



Ten per cent of all receipts from forest reserves are 

 given to the counties in which they lie, to be used for 

 schools and roads. 



No one but the Special Fiscal Agent, Forest Serv- 

 ice, Washington, D. C., is authorized to receive pay- 

 ments for the use of the forest reserves. 



Payments must be in the form of postal or express 

 money orders or national-bank drafts on New York 

 City. Other forms of drafts, checks, certified checks, 

 or postage stamps will not be accepted. (Reg. 7, p. 29.) 



Complaints should be made in writing, both to the 

 immediate superior of the officer complained against 

 and to the Forester, at Washington. 



Every user of a forest reserve will be held responsi- 

 ble for knowing the regulations and obeying them.
