FOREWORD.

National Forests are open to all persons for all lawful purposes. The timber, water, pasture, and other resources are for the use of the people, and the min- erals are open to exploitation just as on unreserved public land. This manual tells how these resources may be obtained under reasonable conditions without delay.

Persons who wish to make any use of the resources of a National Forest for which a permit is required should consult the nearest Forest officer.

Twenty-five per cent of all receipts fron: National Forests are given to the counties in which they lie, to be used for schools and roads. An additional .10 per cent is expended by the Secretary of Agriculture upon roads and trails constructed primarily for the benefit of settlers within the Forests.

Regulations are printed in this type. 11
