CHOTEAU, -TETON• CCUNTY$MONT AN A, MAY 11,. 1923 - - ) ' ____ * , J _______________ __ N U M B E R 44 FOREST SERVICE Anticipating that congress may •soon require detailed information re garding the public domain, especially land suitable for grazing, in the vi cinity of the national forests, the ■district forester at Missoula has cal led upon the supervisors of forests to Montana and north Idaho for data regarding the quantity of public do main lands which might to the public advantage be added to the present national forest areas. ■ This is a direct result of the gen- s 'eral support given Colonel W. B. ‘Greeley, chief forester of the United ^States; when he made several pro posals at a meeting of the National Livestock Association in- California last February. At that time Colonel »Greeley pointed out that there are in »the United States about 175,000,000 ¡acres of unreserved public domain land which is suitable for - grazing and is still a free-for-all grazing commons without protection or regu lation of any kind. He pointed out the well known fact that much of this area is being ruined by unregu lated use and that the welfare of ad jacent communities suffers corres pondingly. It is Colonel Greeley’s opinion that ••some kind of control of such public lands is one of the essential factors for better stabilizing the live Stock industry. His SUggeellon to the meet ing was that while ttie secretary of ••agriculture, through the forest ser vice, is prepared to undertake the 'work of control of these lands, if congress and the stock industry wish it, the essential point is, not who will • do the work, but* that it bedone. „A small portion of this public do main land is so distributed that var ious parcels of it form natural parts o f present national forest range units, it would be logical that these be ad ministered by the forest service, t,os- gether with adjoining national forest 'lauds, as this would be the most ec- »onomical way to handle them.
