Glen A. Smith Reminiscence 9, circa 1950s
Full text linkGlen A. Smith reflects on the importance of fair and amiable working relationships between the U.S. Forest Service and the ranchers who ran their herds on National Forest land. He describes how increased communication between ranchers and foresters had a positive effect on compliance with National Forest protocols attempting to reduce impact on the range. Smith reflects on his work for Chicago businessman W.P. Murphy, after he retired in 1942 from a 35-year career with the Forest Service, appraising ranch land across Montana, Utah, Nevada and New Mexico. Smith tells how he continued to assess rangeland after Murphy’s death, noting his work on the Navajo and Ute Indian Reservations where stock served as one of the primary means of income for the native community and lead to overgrazing of the range.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/glensmith_reminiscences/1008/thumbnail.jp
Glen A. Smith Reminiscence 5, circa 1950s
Full text linkGlen A. Smith reflects on his time as a U.S. Forest Service ranger in the Custer National Forest. He estimates that he spent some 150-165 days in the saddle per year patrolling boundaries and examining trespasses by local ranchers, a community which Smith reports, was generally very cooperative with Forest Service requests. Smith recalls early efforts to manage and restore national forest lands which he notes were often misguided such as artificial seeding attempts in the Custer National Forest which produced no new tree-growth. He discusses his acceptance of a supervisory position at the Beartooth Forest headquarters in Red Lodge, Montana. Smith describes his job responsibilities in that position including close examination of lumber and mining claims, as well as livestock range requests. He remembers initial efforts to stock Beartooth National Forest lakes with fish.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/glensmith_reminiscences/1004/thumbnail.jp
Glen A. Smith Reminiscence 2, circa 1950s
Full text linkGlen A. Smith describes how he traveled west in 1898 to work in lumber yards in Montana. He recalls starting work at Northwestern Mill near Columbia Falls as a sawdust cart driver, and then rising through the ranks to become a ratchet-setter and then foreman of the mill. Smith recalls accidents and close-calls that represent the dangers of mill work at the turn of the century. He also mentions his work with Smith Mill and the O’Neil Lumber Company in Kalispell. Smith reflects on the Scandinavian and French-Canadian labor force that made up the logging and milling communities of the early 1900s. He notes that getting married and having a family encouraged him to diversify his economic interests and invest in a stucco plant. Smith recalls the changes he has witnessed in Montana from the early to mid-1900s including how once open land has been replaced by fenced-off wheat-farms.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/glensmith_reminiscences/1001/thumbnail.jp
Glen A. Smith Reminiscence 8, circa 1950s
Full text linkGlen A. Smith reflects on his time as the Region 1 Chief Range Manager for the U.S. Forest Service, balancing sheep and cattle interests with the grazing needs of wild game in Montana and Idaho. He cites that much of his success came from being a manager who made an effort to leave his desk and get his boots on the ground. Smith states that his knowledge of the landscape gave him credibility as a manager whose policy decisions were based on realistic expectations of the land’s carrying capacity. He discusses how, due to his experience and proficiency as Range Manager for Region 1, he was relocated in 1939 to work on issues facing over-grazed rangelands around Colorado, Wyoming and South Dakota. Smith reflects on overcoming his outsider status in the Uncompahgre and Grand Mesa Forests and was able to oversee productive change in rangeland grazing procedures there.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/glensmith_reminiscences/1007/thumbnail.jp
Glen A. Smith Reminiscence 6, circa 1950s
Full text linkGlen A. Smith describes the Prior Mountain range and the unique situation that stockmen faced raising herds in a land with little water. He reports on the early years of his marriage to Chrissy C. Rowe, and the birth of their three children. Smith describes the first completed road between Libby and Troy that ran along the banks of the Kootenai River, noting that such developments reflected the transition to “living in a civilized country.” He recalls his job working for the Kootenai National Forest which he notes was more challenging professionally than his jobs at either Beartooth or Custer National Forest due to the Forest Homestead Act of June 11, 1906, which initiated efforts to identify agricultural land within the national forest bounds and clear it for use. Smith recalls tensions between the community and the federal government in regards to timber rights policy decisions along the banks of Kootenai River.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/glensmith_reminiscences/1005/thumbnail.jp
