The Dude Ranches
No two dude ranches are exactly
alike. Some are founded on the bas
is of still active ranches which are
conducted as business enterprises
in W'hich the raising of livestock
and grain crop3 is the primary
business and that of the entertain
ment of visitors a secondary one.
Some are partly one and partly the
other; others have been developed
from the beginning as guest
ranches. Some are in the moun
tain areas, some on the plains,
and others in deserts of the South
west.

Trees Should Mature
As proof that it pays to wait until ,
trees are mature and of fairly good ■
size before cutting them for tim
ber, forestry experts offer the fol
lowing statistics: “There i$ about
19 times as much lumber in a tree
with a 2G-inch trunk as in a 9-inch
tree and the lumber is worth more
per foot, bringing the value up to
36 times that of wood from the 9
inch tree.”
