- W2517381566 abstract "I HAVE been reading a History of the American Society of Range Management, 1946 to 1949, prepared during 1950 by the Historical Committee of the Society. It gives me the greatest possible gratification to be connected with an organization that has made so much progress from such humble beginnings in such a short time. At the Billings meeting, one of the highlights was the report of our able Secretary, Pat McIlvain, indicating our situation at that time. He portrayed ,an analogy between our Society and a steer, both three year olds, boogery, snorty and full of spirit. Then he commented, “His hide is still’ loose, and there is room for lots more beef .” In a way, our Society is also somewhat comparable to a boy in his early “teens”. We are at the “awkward” age. We are almost too big to continue to operate without a paid secretary, and not quite big enough to adequately finance a paid executive secretary and an office such as he would require to fill the duties we would expect from him. Your Directors in session at Billings considered several angles of this financial problem. The opinion was that an increase in annual dues per member should be delayed just as long as it is possible to do so. There was fear that such an increase in dues might restrict our membership, and the members that we might lose by such a course would be just that, portion of our membership which is of greatest value and assistance to us t80 achieve our objectives. Another angle that was discussed at some length was the possibility of making the Journal at least partly self-supporting by advertising. Steps are being taken to more fully explore this possibility, and we have much hope that we will be able to do something along this line. The thing that will best “fill out our hide”, help along our finances and help us generally along the road to our objective, “To foster Advancement in the Science and Art of Range Management” is more members, and I think we can get them. I think we can get them because we have something to sell. First, of course, we have an excellent Journal, which, by any standard of values, is worth the full cost of membership. What is probably equally important is the fact that we have developed a character and a standing in our field that is good. We offer the only organized meeting ground for several groups that have need of such a meeting ground. Some of these groups are the rancher, the ultra-technical researcher and the L‘practical” technical man working at the ground level, either as a public land administrator, or as a technical assistant to farmers or ranchers. It is rather obvious that no one of these groups is going to perform much function in a vacuum apart, from t/he others." @default.
