Government to Acquire Muir Woods Redwoods Preserve
An American donor, William Kent of Chicago, gifted land to the United States to form a national monument in the Muir woods area near San Prayeises, Calaveras and Tuolumne counties. The plan covers 4,000 acres including 1,380 trees over twenty five feet in diameter, with Sequoia washingtoniana and other species. The act exchanges stumpage or other lands for the timber, avoiding new appropriations, and aims to protect a premier redwood grove for education and public enjoyment. In other news, guidance on making vinegar from cider is provided, detailing storage temperatures, fermentation timelines, and methods to obtain 4 percent acetic acid strength.
