Excerpt from Forest Growth and Sheep Grazing: In the Cascade Mountains of Oregon Hon. Binger Hermann, Commissioner of the General Land Office, furnished the writer with valuable letters of introduction to several prominent citizens of Oregon, who were familiar with the sheep grazing question. Mr. John Minto, of Salem, Oreg., gave a general letter of introduction to the sheepmen of eastern Oregon which made it possible to secure a large amount of information through channels that ordina rily would have been closed to a Government officer investigating this subject. Among the many others whose courtesy contributed materi ally to the success of the investigation should be mentioned particularly Mr. Thomas Cooper and Mr. E. F. Benson of the western land office of the Northern Pacific Railroad, at Tacoma, Wash., who have recently been conducting an investigation of Sheep grazing on the railroad lands.
