Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early History of Maine Haven: Fair Haven, Lynden, Eden Lake and Paynesville The farmer-stockman can not afford to do without this feed. The temporarily larger profits that might be derived from overgrazing would soon be offset by the somev hat more moderate but continued profits accrued from a stable stock industry in which the lands are grazed on the basis of a sustained yield. If instead of grazing merely one canyon beyond its carrying capacity the entire forest unit, and, indeed, all forest land of irregular topography throughout the West were likewise grazed, untold injury to farm land and other property from destructive erosion and floods would result, a sustained stream flow would no longer exist on the watersheds, and there would be neither a normal supply of water for the irrigation of the adjoining farm lands nor of forage for the live stock on the extensive forest ranges. Without these productive elevated range lands upon which to summer the stock, homes on many farms could no longer be maintained; and it would not be long before the lands would revert to the original wild state. Within the boundaries of the Manti National Forest of Utah there is a belt of approximately 47,000 acres of land along the east side of the divide which is badly depleted as a result of overgrazing and erosion, making necessary a regulation protecting the areas from grazing part of the year. Along the west side of the divide there is a similar belt of about the same acreage where erosion is also causing damage. These belts are practically timberless, and are of value chiefly as watersheds, from which stream flow for irrigation is supplied, and for the grazing resources which they afford. That these and similar eroded lands would originally support a cow or the equivalent in sheep on from one-third to one-fifth the acreage required at the present time is evidence of the enormous loss annually to the live-stock industry alone. The soil and plant foods on these already relatively unproductive lands continue to be carried away by the run-off following each storm; and the destruction, where well advanced, is sure to continue until preventive measures are fully established. Typical instances of the damage caused by erratic run-off and erosion are well worth citing. On July 28, 1912, a rainstorm occurred at the head of Ephraim Canyon, on the Manti National Forest, within a belt of 2 miles and between elevations of 9, 000 and 10, 500 feet. There, was no rain in the valley or on the mountain below, approximately, 8, 000 feet. The storm of 0.41 of an inch of rain fell intermittently, but at no time with special violence, for a period of two hours. A flood of sufficient force developed to reach to the city of Ephraim, 10 miles below, covering the streets and some farm land, and filling the basements of buildings with mud and debris.
