United States Department of Agri- 
culture. New Experiment Station 
To Be Established 
Secretary Wilson of the United 
States Department of Agriculture 
has decided to establish an experi- 
ment station on the Manti National 
Forest near Ephraim, Utah, for the 
study of grazing and water protec- 
tion problems. Im fact bids for 
the construction of the necessary 
buildings have been received and it 
is expected to have the station in 
working order before winter. Al- 
ready the gathering of observations 
on the relations of erosion and run- 
off to the forest cover have begun. 
The Manti National Forest was 
chosen as the site for this experiment 
station because it offers exceptional- 
ly good opportunities for investigat- 
ing problems of practical value in 
connection with regulated grazing. 
Ephraim and other towns in its 
neighborhood have suffered severely 
from floods following violent rain- 
storms in the mountains, and it has 
been already proved conclusively that 
the overgrazed condition of areas on 
which the natural vegatative cover 
has been seriously altered is respon- 
sible for the formation of torrents 
and the rapid discharge of debris- 
laden floodwaters. In a recent de- 
structive storm the water ran clear 
from a part of the watershed which 
was within the National Forest, and 
in good condition as a result of well 
regulated grazing, while from other 
areas it swept down sand and boul- 
ders. One of the objects of the study 
will be to learn how the maximum of 
grazing use of Natural Forest land 
can be obtained without injury to 
forest reproduction and stream flow. 
The ational Forests provide 
range during a part of all of 
the year for a considerable part 
of the stock produced in the western 
States. Approximately one and one- 
half million head of cattle and horses 
and seven and one-half million head 
of sheep and goats occupy the For- 
est lands each year. These figures 
do not include nearly three hundred 
thousand calves and over four mil- 
lion lambs and kids for which per- 
mits are not required..
