Covering the mountain ranges and important watersheds are seventeen reserves, extending from the Oregon line nearly to Mexico, and aggregating 18,155,043 acres. This acreage is greater by nearly 6,000,000 than that possessed by any other state. Colorado is next with fifteen reserves, comprising 12,691,145 acres, followed by Montana with 10,517,860 acres. The Sierra reserve alone is nearly as large as the entire state of Massachusetts, while, if combined, the national forest reserves in California would make three states the size of New Jersey, and have enough left over to cover Connecticut. The withdrawal of such an enormous area of public forest land for conservative use means that there was urgent need for a protective forest policy and that the national government was fully awake to the necessity for action along these lines. The people of California have given all possible encouragement to such a policy, and the commercial organizations and mountaineering clubs have consistently advocated government administration of certain of the state forest and water resources. The result has been the creation of forest businesslike manner, under strictions only as will insure of these resources. It is naturally a task of magnitude to properly manage a series of reserves as Californiasesses, comprising as they as large as all New Englandsive of Maine and Connecscattered through 9 degrees. Their location and character make the task cult, through the lack of facilities for communication transportation. The demen the reserves are many and nature, and the best judge part of the reserve officer sary to prevent friction. est source of danger, and the most difficult of control, during the long dry season precaution is taken to p suppress this evil.

The people of California have given all possible encouragement to such a policy, and the commercial organizations and mountaineering clubs have consistently advocated government administration of certain of the state forest and water resources. The result has been the creation of forest reserves wherever they were needed for the protection of drainage basins and timber. The one great mistake was that action was delayed until much of the best timber land fell into the hands of lumbermen. This has limited the possible extent of the forest reserves, and left much private land within their boundaries, but on the whole, they are advantageously situated and of incalculable value to the state. The first reserve created was the San Gabriel in 1892, and the number has been gradually increased since that time. The greatest progress was made during the past year when seven reserves were proclaimed by the president. Lands have been withdrawn and reserves are proposed in Monterey county and near San Luis Obispo. The boundaries of the earlier reserves were determined largely from data available in the local land offices, but the location and limits of the newer reserves have been decided upon only after careful examinations. That the general object of forest reserves is to protect the drainage basins of important streams and provide for a future timber supply is well known. The means by which this end is attained are, however, less generally understood, and the public is not well informed as to the organization and duties of the administrative force. The administrative work on all forest reserves is now directed by the forest service in the department of agriculture. This transfer of authority from the department of the interior to the department of agriculture, was effected inspectors on duty in the service makes a total force of 1610 force is somewhat reduced the winter season.

APAUGH, Agent. this end is attained are, however, less generally understood, and the public is not well informed as to the organization and duties of the administrative force. The administrative work on all forest reserves is now directed by the forest service in the department of agriculture. This transfer of authority from the department of the interior to the department of agriculture, was effected by congressional action which took effect February 1, 1905. The keynote of the whole forest reserve policy is perpetuation by conservative use. Protection from fire and trespass is contemporaneous with this prime object. The aim is not to close the reserves to the lumberman, stockowner, camper, and others who might profit by their use, but to leave them open for every legitimate purpose. The Use book of the National forest reserves sums the matter up as follows: "Forest reserves are for the purpose of preserving a perpetual supply of timber for home industries, preventing destruction of the forest cover which regulates the flow of streams, and protecting local residents from unfair competition in the use of forest and range. They are patrolled and protected, at government expense, for the benefit of the community and the home builder. The timber, water, pasture, mineral, and other resources of the forest reserves are for the use of the people. They may be obtained under reasonable conditions without delay. All the resources of forest reserves are for use, and this use must be brought about in a thoroughly prompt and all matters of importance. aim, however, to give all authority to the local office to secure prompt and just all matters connected with and care of the reserves. Each supervisor, on a fullized reserve, has a corps of made up of forest rangers, grades, forest guards, and cal assistant where circumstances require it. The main duty rangers and guards are to the reserves against fire, assist the people in the use of serve resources. The technicians handle scientific monitoring to general forestry ing, grazing, and dendrology in the preparation of mining and planting plans investigations of the silica characteristics and commercial uses and other studies requiring forester. The detailed work varies with individual reserves.ern California, where there timber for sale, fire protection cover on watersheds is the most This is effected by patrol, and general measures for the tion of fires, and the promulgation of those which sit the northern part of the state the reserves are more or less with commercial trees, the protection is given, but special attention is given to tions for timber, and sales where the timber can be Cutting is permitted only unful regulations which insure stand and prevent p jury to the forest. Grazin naturally a task of no small importance to properly manage such of reserves as California poscomprising as they do an area as all New England, excluMaine and Connecticut, and bred through 9 degrees of latition. Their location and general order make the task more diffierult the lack of convenient uses for communication and portation. The demands upon reserves are many and of varied and the best judgment on the the reserve officers is necesprevent friction. The greatforce of danger, and the element difficult of control, is fire, and the long dry season every action is taken to prevent and es this evil. Regular force of forest reserve in California is made up of survisors, 6 forest rangers in of reserves, 112 forest rangers plant forest rangers, 27 forest rangers and 2 forest assistants. In there are usually 2 forest rangers on duty in the state, which is total force of 161 men. This somewhat reduced during other season. Of this number forest assistants and forest insists are professionally trained, while the supervisors and charge of reserves combine technical knowledge with familiarity with local con- mitted wherever it is not harmful in any way, and the reserve officers recommend the allotments to different owners and different classes of stock. Careful administration insures that the privileges granted are not abused and that no more stock is permitted within the reserve than permits have been granted for. Beginning January 1, 1906, a reasonable fee will be charged for grazing all classes of livestock on forest reserves. This will materially increase the income from the reserves and work no hardship to the stock owners, since it will insure them the use of a definite range under equitable regulations, which protect the local owners and provide for the improvement and best use of the grazing ground. Both green and dead and down timber on forest reserves, which can be cut safely and for which there is actual need, is for sale. The free use privilege of not more than $20 worth of timber annually may be granted to farmers, settlers and others who need it for domestic purposes, or to a value not to exceed $100 in any one year to schools, churches, and to other public or non-commercial organizations. Applications for these free use privileges may be granted or refused by the local supervisors or rangers. In all of the states except California, sales of not over $20 worth of dead timber can be made by any forest ranger, while the supervisor can approve the sale of dead or living timber to an amount not exceeding Trained men of various representing the technical of the forest service, are also in forest reserves, but are directly concerned with adminmatters. They are usually in special investigations or work which include the preof working or planting correcting the marking and cuttimber, examining lands for forest reserves and carrying on planting operations. By an order of December, 1904, the forest reserve service was under the civil service law. Plan or organization is practue same on each of the reLocal control is vested in a or a ranger-in-charge, the operative unit being one regroup of reserves, or a dia reserve, depending on the ation. and condition as to over, timber sales and grazing. Survisor has full local control, applications for timber and permits and special privillial approves a certain class of ions. He stands between ordinates and the local users of resources, and the forester Bington, to whom he refers ors of importance. It is the however, to give all possible way to the local officer in order prompt and just action in users connected with the use of the reserves. Supervisor, on a fully organerve, has a corps of assistants of forest rangers of three forest guards, and a techninant where circumstances re- churches, and to other public or non-commercial organizations. Applications for these free use privileges may be granted or refused by the local supervisors or rangers. In all of the states except California, sales of not over $20 worth of dead timber can be made by any forest ranger, while the supervisor can approve the sale of dead or living timber to an amount not exceeding $100. All sales above $100 must be advertised, and referred to the forester at Washington for approval. California differs from any other state in that every sale of any class must be advertised for sixty days. Forest planting on the timberless drainage basins in the southern preserves is work which will grow in extent and importance as better fire protection is secured and the value of water increases. It is obviously a difficult and expensive undertaking, but since future agricultural development of the adjacent valleys depends almost entirely on increased water supply, the improvement of the watersheds becomes an urgent public necessity. A forest cover will undoubtedly improve the conditions by regulating the flow of streams, preventing the rapid run-off of the flood waters, and diverting moisture into seepage channels where it will eventually find its way into the natural gravelly storage basins in the valleys, and increase the underground supply utilized through wells. The forest service maintains a large forest nursery in the San Gabriel mountains, and another in San Marcos pass back of Santa Barbara, and plants many thousand seedling trees in the mountains every winter. Although within forest reserves, this work is not under the direction of reserve officers, but is conducted by the office of forest extension in the forest service. There is active co-operation, however, between this office and the reserve officers, in such matters as fire-line construction and road collecting. supervisor, on a fully organrive, has a corps of assistants of forest rangers of three forest guards, and a technilant where circumstances require. The main duties of the land guards are to protect lives against fire, and to asspeople in the use of the reSOURCES.

In Southcalifornia, where there is little for sale, fire protection of the watersheds is the main duty. Effected by patrol, fire lines are measures for the prevences, and the prompt extinution of those which start. In certain part of the state, where lives are more or less covered commercial trees, the same fire is given, but in addition, attention is given to application timber, and sales are made the timber can be spared.

Although within forest reserves, this work is not under the direction of reserve officers, but is conducted by the office of forest extension in the forest service. There is active cooperation, however, between this office and the reserve officers, in such matters as fire-line construction and seed collecting. The work thus far has been largely experimental, but it has been quite conclusively shown that trees can be planted in the more favorable situations at reasonable cost and made to live. Forestry is a comparatively new subject, not only in California but in the whole United States; hence it cannot be expected that matters of policy and method as applied at present, will be perfect. Californians, however, should feel proud of what they have done for themselves and of what the national govern­ment is doing for them to secure the best use of the state forest resources. Any public policy to be successful must have the endorsement of the people concerned, and this holds for forestry as well as for other questions of public moment. The people of California have shown their appreciation of the forest work which is being done for them, by encouraging the creation of the reserves, by making proper use of the resources thus perpetuated, and by adopting a state forest policy. In the end, the forest reserves of the state should become self-supporting, and increase in value through protection and careful man­agement, in keeping with the grow­ing value of the timber and water which they conserve.
