Each special use permit "1shall terminate - at the discre.

Timber sale contracts, in addition to stipulating Service 
control of brush disposal and logging methods, may be made to in- 
clude any reasonable and necessary clauses covering watershed coa-

All contracts or permits provide for cooperation in fire pre-

brush disposal on timber, and the more technlral features of pernmttei

ng. There are often places where a few minutes work will stop the 
xtension of erosion into a comparatively large area of land. The 
erformance of such work, even on a small scale, directly conserves
