GRAZING. 75 



within the required limit, unless satisfactory reasons are 

 given. * 



In setting the date on or before which applications for grazing 

 permits must be presented, ample time will be given to insure all 

 persons who are entitled to share in the privilege an opportunity 

 to file their applications. 



In case the total number of any kind of stock applied for before 

 the date which has been set does not equal the number allotted 

 to the reserve, applications received subsequently may be approved 

 until the total allotment has been reached. 



REG. 48. Grazing applications must not cover more 

 stock than the applicant desires to graze in the reserve, 

 and must show the marks and brands of the stock, the 

 portion of the reserve or district in which pasture is de- 

 sired, and the grazing period. 



Applications will be divided into two classes, cattle and horses, 

 and sheep and goats, and will be numbered separately. The cat- 

 tle and horse grazing applications will begin each season with No. 

 1, and the sheep and goat applications with a number such as 301, 

 501, etc., which will be above the highest number given any cattle 

 and horse grazing application for the same reserve. 



Amended applications and permits allowing an increase or de- 

 crease in the number of stock to be grazed will be given the same 

 number as the original. 



Applications which are disapproved will not be included in the 

 numbered series. 



Upon approval of a grazing application the supervisor will 

 immediately notify the applicant of the action taken, stating the 

 number of stock allowed and the amount to be paid for grazing 

 fees. A duplicate copy of each notice of approval will be sent to 

 the Forester at once. 



Whenever a grazing application is disapproved the supervisor 

 will at once notify the applicant to that effect by letter, giving the 

 reason for such action, and also send a copy of the letter to the 

 Forester.
