Authorized grazing in national forests rises in 1910 season
The secretary of agriculture reports an increase in stock allowed to graze national forest lands for 1910, by about 200000 cattle and horses and 500000 sheep and goats, totaling 1957000 cattle and horses and 8323000 sheep and goats, with Nevada, Colorado, Montana, Utah and Washington seeing the largest gains due to range improvements. The department opposes burning forests to kill cattle fever ticks, urging managed grazing and on-farm feeding as better methods, and notes plans for Ozark farmers to pursue funding for tick eradication in 1911.
