LANDS ARE PUT TO 
FOREST 
ae MANY USES. 
Almost every conceivable use to 
which land may be put is represented 
in the permits reported by the for- 
est service for special projects on the 
national forests.. Some of the uses 
shown range, alphabetically, from 
-apiary through brickyard, cannery, 
cemetery, church, cranberry marsh, 
fox ranch, marine railway, rifle 
range, and turpentine still, to wharf 
and whaling station. 
There are 15,000 permits in force 
for such special uses, which are dis- 
tributed geographically from Alaska 
to the Mexican line, and east to Flor- 
ida. This figure does not include any 
of the 27,000 permits in force for 
grazing cattle and sheep on the for- 
ests; nor the 6,000 transactions for 
the sale of timber, and the more than 
38,000 permits issued last year for 
the free use of timber by settlers, 
miners, and others in developing 
homesteads and claims; nor the near- 
velopment. 
California led all the national for- 
est states in the number of these spe- 
cial permits, followed by Arizona, 
Colorado, Montana, and New Mexico 
in the order named. ‘The _ lafgest 
single class of permits was for spe- 
cial pastures, or corrals, to be used 
for lambing grounds, shearing pens, 
and the like. Next came rights of 
way for conduits, ditches, and flumes, 
Bs practically all of these being free. 
r Various agricultural permits cone 
“ third, telephone lines fourth with 
more than a thousand permits for 
} 
6,500 miles of line, and drift fences © 
for the control of grazing animals, 
fifth. In both these latter classes, 
too, practically all of the permits 
F are free. Reservoirs for which 
. more than 600 permits were is- 
sued for the occupation of more than 
. 100,000 acres come sixth. The 
rest of the uses are not classified 
| though there are a large number of 
apiaries, camps, summer hotels, and 
schools. The use of the govern- 
ment’s lands for schools is given 
free; for hotels a charge is made. 
The principle which governs the 
charge is based, according to the for- 
est service, on whether or not the use 
of the land is sought by the permit- 
tee for a commercial purpose. If it 
is the intent of the user to make 
money from a resource which _be- 
longs to the whole people, the ser- 
vice holds that he should give a rea- 
sonable return for that use. If, on 
the other hand, farmers want to use 
government land for their own tele-

She was the youngest of eight

as his salary was not large she al- 
ready has learned that there was 
many things the family could not 
have. One day her father told her 
that she had a new baby sister.
