Harrl&on conducted a group ol of the Logan horse txick rider Canyon Trails Committee and the Cache Canter Club over an ex-- 1 celk-n- t demonstration Ui Logan Canyon of what can be aeocm- pllshed by controlled grazing, re- seeding and stirring up the soiL The area Is the loir table lund rolling hills east of U Fjrks known as the Mud Flats. Here are several thousand acres of good grazing land lira: nine been overgrazed in the past. Two years ego the local forest Department decided to Improve this area. A project was adopted with Ranger Christiansen in charge.. The plat was divided into really four large mountain postures separated with good fences. About five hundred acres in eacin pasture can be reseeded with the aid of a large disc harrow. Wlwe the disc harrow cannot be used rs the seed Is broadcast. Two were noted. One had been restricted to grazing for Its second year and one, one year. With the rains of this year and last year the grasses had made a remarkable growth. The crested wheat grass; the brome and bulbous brome grasses, blue grass and others Including Uie native grasses, are growing fast among the dock, sage and bitter brushes and other plants. Before the project was started, the area had little but the dock weed and dust. Very lltUe vegetative cover. Now it is coming back as one of the best grazing areas of the enUre canyon. ITie plan Is to reseed these pastures and keep them restricted to grazing for three years. This permits the grasses to get firmly established. The pastures are alternated so that one or more are In use all the time and one or more restricted end at the same time none are being over grazed. George Q. Bateman of the USAC Ranger A. P. pas-teu- has a similar plan for dairy pastures at the college farm. These have demonstrated their value. Ousted From Labor Group At first some of tlie local stock-me- n were reluctant to forego the ue of one or more of these mountain pastures until they were reseeded but now they are convinced and good cooperation Is had from the cattle grower associations. By stirring up the soil the native1" grasses grow much faster. It Just a way of lielping nature to produce more for our benefit. A similar area in Cottonwood Canyon In Black Smith Fork Canyon has received the same treat ment and the results are excellent. Better and more feed are produced for more cattle and at the same time our water sheds re- It was cieve bitter protection. noted that the treatment soon fills up the gullies and eroded places with vegetation and con serves the water and solL Otherwise the erosion Is faster and it is not long until much of the soil Is washed away and there Is less late water for irrigation. The horse back ride Wednesday was over a new trail. It leaves the Forks and extends along the main highway north Just post the Cottonwood ridge where the river is forded and the trail winds up Chicken Creek to the top of toe broad table land or Mud Hats to the south and east. Part way up Chicken Creek Is large Douglas fir by the side of the trail. This has been named the West tree In honor of Dr. F. L. West because of his interest In getting this trail established. There are many varieties of flowers, plants, shrubs, and trees along the trail. Forester Harrison demonstrated his knowledge and ability to teU the names of all the flowers and plants encountered with the exception of two flowers. He could not recall the names of these but promised to have the names by the next day. He could give the common as well as the scientific names. It was a pleasure to be with some one who could answer the questions. The group had lunch at the Mud Flat ranger station, Tliis Is a little cabin located in the cen- - PHILADELPHIA, PA.

Tlft're is no assurance that when these men come back in the Fall, they will be able to provide coal for the usual purposes. In Northeastern Colorado, which Mr. Gross cited as an example, the mine arc not working their men full time with the result that the WMC Is recruiting in the distrkt for mines In Southern Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. Miners are also being taken from the Fremont County district In Southern Colorado. "Even If when these miners return to their home districts in the Fall there will not be time to provide all of the coal needed for home, school and industrial use, Mr. Gross shaid. "The only answer to the problem under a wartime economy Is to buy and store the necessary coal during the spring and summer months.
