We do know that Mildred moved to Monkey Town, Utah, after she graduated from Lehi High School (Lehi, Utah), sometime around 1916. She lived there with her father and mother, Charles and Eliza Crabb. Charles Crabb worked at the Utah & Idaho (U & I) Sugar Factory. Note: Monkey Town and the U & I Sugar Factory were located north of Monroe and east of Elsinore. Monkey Town consisted of a group of homes built by U & I for some of the sugar factory employees. Generally the homes in Monkey Town were more upscale compared to the homes in surrounding areas. AW Endowed: 01 June 1917 Marriage: 14 May 1919 (age ~23) to Mildred Ann Crabb (age ~20), LDS Temple, St. George, Utah AW and Mildred were the parents of 4 children: 28 Jan 1920 Alma Woodruff Magleby Jr ("Spike") 28 Oct 1921 Calvin Charles Magleby 02 Jan 1925 Mavis Magleby (Kelly) 29 Jan 1931 Hal Mark Magleby Alma, the father of AW, was a very successful and prominent sheep operator and rancher in Central Utah. As such AW, the oldest son of Alma, was actively involved in his father's business. It has been written that at an early age, AW always wanted to do what his father did. After his schooling, military service, and marriage AW went back to doing what he knew best, "I operated a large ranch and livestock outfit," in Monroe, Utah. May 1919 AW was self-employed working in the ranching and livestock business: •Breeder, feeder, dealer in livestock (e.g., sheep and cattle) •Fattened an average of 5000 lambs per year in dry feed lot. •Operated 2 bands of range sheep and cattle •In partnership with his father, they marketed the first feed lot lambs in Utah. •Owned and operated a lamb and cattle feeding yard. •Organized and was the first president of the Monroe Lamb Feeders Association. A year or two before Mavis was born, AW and Mildred purchased a brand new, custom built, 2 bedroom, 1 bath home, with a full basement on Main Street in Monroe. It had everything: fireplace, built-in bookcases, French doors in the bedroom, coal-burning furnace in the basement for heat, and a two-car garage. The family lived in the home for about six years. Mavis was born in the parents’ bedroom. Hal Mark was the only child born in a hospital (Salina, Utah). But after Mildred and baby Hal Mark recovered, both returned back to the Main Street house. Soon, the effects of the Great Depression reached central Utah and the Magleby family was forced to rent the Main Street house and move back to the little 4-room house on the farm. The farm house had no in-door plumbing and a little outhouse in the back by the pig pen. The kitchen stove was the sole source of heat during the winter. On the farm, the family grew wheat, alfalfa (the main crop), with a few pigs, cows, and horses. Milk from the cows was sold each day to the creamery. Pigs and cows were for family use. Each spring, the sheep were brought in from the winter range and sheared. An interesting family story is that Lowell Crabb (Mildred’s brother) and Neal Magleby (AW’s brother) both went to mortuary school in Los Angeles, California. Financing school was a bit of a problem. Neal got some help from the Maglebys. Lowell received some financial support from Mildred. However, before they went off to mortuary school, they decided to experiment and make a batch of hooch using some of AW’s wheat from the granary. Jan 1933 (age ~37) AW transitioned from being self-employed to employee: Livestock inspector and loan officer. AW worked for the Farm Credit Administration (and the Emergency Feed and Seed Loan Corporation) as a Field Inspector. While company head quarters were in Salt Lake City, AW and his family continued to live in the Monroe Utah area. For wages of $8.00 per day, AW would inspect livestock (loan security) and approve feed and seed loans to livestock operators and ranchers. Jan 1934 (age ~ 38) Livestock inspector and loan officer AW performed the same duties with the Regional Agricultural Credit Corp -- same company, different name, or different company, same duties? Again, he and his family continued to live in the Monroe Utah area as he inspected livestock and approved livestock loans. Wages were the same, $8.00 per day. On 06 Aug 1934 his father, Alma, passed away (age ~ 63.) Jan 1935 (age ~ 39) Buyer/dealer Passed Civil Service Exam AW got out of the credit/lending business as he went to work for Hallowel, Jones & Donald. On a commission basis he was a wool and lamb buyer/dealer. Sometime during the year he passed the Civil Service Exam with the intent of working as a Grazier. When the Taylor Grazing Act was passed in 1934 by the US Congress, an office within the Department of the Interior was created to manage the act. It was first called the Division of Grazing, but was renamed the US Grazing Service in 1939. Its responsibilities were to enforce the Act, which leased public lands to farmers and ranchers for grazing. Early on, the Grazing Service encountered multiple problems, most of which involved money, money being very tight as a result of the Great Depression. Fees were too low for leased lands, but the farmers and ranchers raised strong opposition to raising the fees. Congress enacted budget reductions. And there was significant unlawful use of public lands at the time. Hoping for better control, the Grazing Service moved its headquarters from Washington, D.C. to Salt Lake City, Utah. In 1946, the Secretary of the Interior combined the Grazing Service and the General Land Office and formed the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). May 1936 (age ~ 40) Grazier Aide, San Rafael Grazing District #7 "duties varied and wide, requiring technical and executive abilities" Relocated to Price Utah AW became a Grazier Aide and moved the family (e.g., AW, Mildred, Mavis, and Hal Mark) to Price Utah. Initially they lived in a basement. Soon thereafter they moved to a duplex; later they bought a small home for the remainder of their stay in Price. Spike and Cal however continued to live in Monroe so that they could graduate from high school. Eventually the farm was sold, but in the meantime, Spike and Cal lived with their grandmother Civilla (AW’s mother) in her Monroe home. They moved the 6 or 7 family cows into a cow pen behind grandma’s house. Each day after milking the cows, they continued to sell the milk to the creamery. Most of the “milk money” went to pay bills. As a federal employee, AW's salary was $1,860 per year -- a little over $7.00 per day. His duties were to assist the District Grazier for the San Rafael District. This district included all federal range lands in Carbon and Emery counties and parts of the Sevier, Wayne, Garfield, Utah and Duchesne counties, an area totaling 3,500,000 acres. July 1938 (age ~42) Assistant District Grazier AW was promoted to Assistant District Grazier, which included a salary raise, $2,300 per year. -- that salary raise had to have been a good thing, about $9.00 per day! It was during this time that all of the grazing districts in the state of Utah were established. July 1939 (age ~ 43) District Grazier During the next 3-year period, AW accomplished a lot, all the time living in Price. He was promoted to District Grazier (Utah Districts # 5 and # 7) and was given total administrative control. He also received a pay raise to $2600 per year -- almost $10.00 per day! He retained this position until July 1942. It was during this time that he was instrumental in establishing the first "service wide" annual grazing conference. Initially the conferences were held at Mud Springs, Utaj, about 16 miles east of Price. Mud Springs was chosen as the place to hold the conference because the area presented a concentration of problems found in all of the other districts. Also Mud Springs happened to be the almost exact geographical center of the regions from which district graziers and delegates would go for instruction and experimentation. Eight buildings were constructed to house the conference visitors and to hold conference meetings. After the completion of the conference, the site was transformed into a Civilian Conservation Corps camp -- the CCC. The CCC was a public work-relief program that operated from 1933 to 1942 for unemployed, unmarried men ages 18 to 25 who came from families needing financial help, again the effects of the Great Depression. It was part of FDR's "New Deal" which provided unskilled manual labor jobs related to conservation and development of natural resources in publicly owned rural lands. In 9 years of its existence, 3,000,000 young men participated. The CCC provided them with shelter, clothing, food, and a small wage of $30 per month ($25 of which was sent home to their families). The CCC camps planted nearly 3 billion trees to help reforest America, constructed more than 800 state and national parks, upgraded almost all of the existing parks, updated forest fire fighting methods, and built a network of public roadways in remote areas. Annual conferences held at Mud Springs were attended by delegates from 10 western range states. The conferences typically lasted about 3 weeks. Afterward, graziers and other delegates would return back to their districts and hold state district conferences to disseminate the information at the district and local level. The purpose of the annual conferences was to bring national policies and procedures to the state and district level. Typical topics addressed included: •Range management and administration •Soil protection •Rodent control •Large reseeding projects to recover badly overgrazed and denuded areas. In addition to reseeding, grazing was restricted until the land had opportunity to recover. •Problems associated with seasonal use, a typical problem found in the northern states •Problems most common to the southern states included: •Water shortages •Scanty vegetation •Mud and sand problems Note: Apparently, Mildred also attended the conferences to help direct and coordinate activities. AW must have been a "people person." He seems to have used all available resources to connect with people including: national Grazing Service/BLM executives, office staff, stockmen, the mining industry, homesteaders, public land recreational users, and the public in general. For example, when he was the San Rafael District Frazier, he was also the chairman of the Rotary club's Rural-Urban Acquaintance Committee. It appears he used his Rotary connections when he was hosting both the local ranchers and herders as well as visiting national executives of the Grazing Service. During this time, AW also employed the services of the CCC camps. For example, one rural road built by the CCC was a roadway connecting Castle Dale and Green River. It was at the request of citizens of Emery County who wanted a short cut between the two towns. The road was actually built by two CCC camps, one in each town and they worked towards the middle. AW was instrumental in what would be called the "Dry Mesa Truck Trail." In addition to being a "short cut," the road also made accessible public grazing areas. Multiple improvements were made to increase the grazing potential of the range in the area. Anticipating a lack of water during the fall months: •Wells were improved and engines were placed nearby to pump water into troughs and storage tanks. •Several springs and seeps were developed and reservoirs constructed. •Watering ponds were constructed in strategic locations with water piped in from the reservoirs. •Stock trails were constructed in areas which were previously impassable. Another desired outcome from the building of the Dry Mesa Truck Trail, "’It is hoped that the weird scenic beauty of the area will prove to be a tourist attraction,’ Mr. Magleby commented." One significant adjustment directed by AW was changing grazing permits from one year to 10 year permits. For many years, one year permits were given to licensed stockmen which allowed them to graze their livestock on the public range. The adjustment was made to increase stability in the livestock industry. AW met individually with each stockman, applying for the 10 year permit, in the Castle Dale courthouse, another example of him being a “people person.” Throughout his career, AW used the media as much as possible to transfer information both to interested parties as well as the public at large. For example, in the summer of 1941 an article entitled "Local Grazier Makes Appeal to Public on Range-Fire Nuisances" was published in the local papers. This was one of many articles that addressed the seasonal problem of range fires. This particular article was written to Utah residents to encourage them to prevent fires on the private ranges as well as on public ranges. At that time there was an abundance of forage because of the extremely wet spring. "'The best way to prevent large fires is to be careful of small ones.' It was reported that during the previous fire season there were 19 different fires in the San Rafael district and approximately 4,000 acres of range land were denuded. All of the fires were fought and extinguished with the aid of C.C.C. boys resulting in a great expense to the government." AW also sent letters to all of the stockmen in the district as well. One of the organizations AW participated in was the American Legion. One newspaper photo shows seven men standing around a piano player; the caption reads "Limbering up the old vocal chords for merry making at the American Legion Reunion." AW was one of the seven men pictured. Over 1000 Legionnaires met in Salt Lake City for the 22nd Birthday Reunion (~ Sep 1941). (((Note: According to his daughter Mavis, AW wasn't that much of a singer.))) 1941 (age ~45) Application for a promotion, relocating to Las Vegas NV He included the following information: •Height: 6' 1" •Weight: 215 lbs •"No physical defects" •“Technical avocations: organizing and public speaking” AW got the promotion, so the family (AW, Mildred, Mavis, and Hal Mark) moved from Price UT to Las Vegas NV in June 1942. Mavis started her last year of high school at Las Vegas High School. Hal Mark was in 7th grade at the time. When they first came to Las Vegas, they stayed in one of the CCC buildings for about one year. It was just about this time when the CCC program ended. July 1, 1942 (age ~46) District/Range Manager, Las Vegas NV District #5, BLM, Department of the Interior Staff: four full-time and 10 part-time employees "Qualifications to do the job in Las Vegas, Nevada Grazing District #5 •"Executive capacity in organization and direction of personnel” •"Experience in purchasing wool and livestock, including fat livestock for slaughter” •"Experience in appraising, condemning, and acquiring land” The Las Vegas job opened up because there were a lot of changes in federal job positions because of the large number of federal employees who joined the armed services in the war effort of World War II. The Imperial Japanese Navy conducted a surprise military strike against the US naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on the morning of 07 Dec 1941. Primary residence: 1248 South 7th St., Las Vegas, NV AW was extremely happy with his assignment and residence in the Las Vegas area. At that time Las Vegas was one of the fastest, if not the fastest, growing areas in the nation. The increased expansion in the area depended largely on the management, development and disbursement of public lands in the area. AW realized the potential of southern Nevada and geared his operations to keep pace with the activities of the rapidly expanding area. During 1948, an additional 2,000,000 acres in Lincoln County were added to the district. AW and his staff were actively interested in the Rural Development Committee activities in Lincoln County. They were particularly interested in attracting new industries to the County with interest to the nearly unlimited woodland resources. One such effort involved 184,000 acres of land around the area of Alamo, NV. The land was analyzed by the US Soil Conservation Service, the BLM, the University of Nevada, and the Nevada State Engineers Office to determine how many applications the area would support. Judicious planning was used to determine in advance whether the soil was farmable and if there was enough water available for irrigation. Of the 200 original applicants, 20 people were granted about 7,200 acres for homesteading. AW expressed the hope that the land would be made fruitful instead of people claiming the land and then doing nothing but holding the land for speculative purposes. Later on (date unknown) AW and his district were given control of an additional 6,000,000 acres in San Bernardino, Riverside and Imperial Counties of California. Through his efforts, an advisory board of grazing lessees was established in San Bernardino County. The primary purpose of the advisory board was to make recommendations on the expenditures of the Grazing Lease Rental Fund for range improvements. The Las Vegas District was of great interest at the national level. AW was referred to as the perfect "host." He was very cordial and accommodating when other people from the Bureau visited the Las Vegas area. It was believed that he knew more national Bureau employees than any other "field man" because of the large number of Bureau employees visiting Las Vegas. His responsibilities for supervising the range administrative functions fell under the provisions of the Taylor Grazing Act and the Federal Range Code. His responsibilities included: •Holding elections of district advisers •Conducting meetings of the district advisory board •Subdivision of the range into units and allotments •Establishing season of range use •Estimates of grazing capacity •Issuance and supervision of grazing licenses, permits and leases •Adjustment of range disputes •Investigation and recommendations in connection with appeals and protests •Preparation of district range management plans •Evaluation of management plans through range utilization studies of the effect of grazing by domestic and game animals on the range resources •Enforcement of range regulations •Issuance of free-use timber permits •Small timber sales •Planning and construction of range improvements, including the determination of location of stock watering reservoirs, wells, fences, trails, stock driveways, etc. •Fire protection of approximately 18,000,000 acres of public land •Establishment and maintenance of cooperative relationships with local representatives of Federal, State, County and Private organizations and individuals within the zone of influence •Local and community activity participation Among the many responsibilities, listed above, AW also was actively involved in resolving conflicts between placer mining claimants and small tract applicants. Placer mining is the mining of alluvial deposits for minerals. Alluvial deposits are loose, unconsolidated sediments, which have been eroded, reshaped by water and re-deposited. It is typically made up of a variety of materials, e.g., fine particles of silt and clay, larger particles of sand and gravel. Locations included dried up lake sediments, old river beds, and glacially-derived sediments (((not many of these found in Southern Nevada!))). To resolve disputes, or to minimize potential disputations, AW regularly met with members of the mining industry both state wide as well as mining interests from all over the western US. In this regard he also actively administered lessees in southern Nevada, which included the development of all natural resources on the leased public lands. At one time, the largest individual grazing lease in the Bureau (690,000 acres) was located within his district. While AW was involved with the secondary interests in public lands i.e., homesteads, land auctions, mining interests, etc., his primary interest was administering and managing the range. As a result he was always interested in the development and the adoption of new methods to increase range forage carrying capacity. Some BLM projects which were first initiated, developed, and adopted in the Las Vegas District included: •Contour furrowing and seeding •Water spreading •Woodland (pinion and juniper) chaining and seeding •Brush eradication (beating and seeding) •Controlled burning and seeding •Sage brush and creosote chaining and seeding In a job promotion application, the following questions were included: 27.Are you now, or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party USA or any communist organization? 28.Are you now or have you ever been a member of a fascist organization? 29.Are you now or have you ever been a member of any organization, association, movement, group, or combination of persons which advocates the overthrow of our constitutional form of government... or a group which has adopted a policy of advocating or approving the commission of acts of force or violence to deny other persons their rights under the Constitution of the USA? (((These are interesting questions on a federal employment application, especially #29, in light of the current diluting of individual rights by all levels of government.))) Oct 30, 1951 (age ~55) AW went to work with his newly added responsibilities. IN ADDITION to administering all of NV District #5, AW was given the responsibility of managing: •NV, Section 15, Henderson Lease Area •another 18,000,000 acres of BLM public land in San Bernardino and Inyo Counties of California Like Utah, range fires were also a big problem in Nevada. An example of one such fire (date unknown), a blaze raged out of control throughout the night destroying 200 acres of potential recreation land near the Vera Krupp ranch now called Spring Mountain Ranch State Park, in the Red Rock Canyon area, west of Las Vegas. The newspaper article went on to report that 74,000 acres had been destroyed by 30 separate fires, earlier that fire season. "'This is the most burned acreage, and the largest number of fires, experienced since the local BLM district was established in 1936,' reported Mr. AW Magleby. Woodland (pinion and juniper) and sagebrush have been the principal vegetative cover ravaged by the fires.” In 1954, every day AW would drive over and examine the construction of his new home being built at 550 Bracken Ave. This was a dream 3 bedroom, 3 bath home. It had everything that Mildred wanted. And the floor plan was just exactly what she had in mind. From the front door, the kitchen and family room were readily accessible. If you remember Mildred, everything else was OFF LIMITS! The first Nevada public land auction was held in Henderson NV, a neighboring community southwest of Las Vegas. The sale was conducted by the BLM. The auctions were held in the Henderson Youth Center. The morning session was devoted to veterans exclusively. Some 88 tracts were sold. The afternoon session was open to the general public. The majority of lots sold were 2 1/2 acre tracts. Prices ranged from $160 to $1425, depending on location. The higher priced tracks were located near the Black Mountain Golf Course. AW, although not a professional auctioneer, nevertheless, filled in during some of the bidding. When asked later by some reporters if he had ever before done any auctioning, he admitted that he ran cattle auctions in Salt Lake City, earlier in his career. 1961 (age ~65) Distinguished Service Award It reads as follows: The Secretary of the Interior, Washington DC Distinguished Service Award Alma Woodruff Magleby A distinguished service citation was awarded to Alma Woodruff Magleby, District Manager, Las Vegas, on January 16, 1961 in Washington D.C. at the 24th honor awards convocation in recognition of more than 27 years of outstanding Federal service. It is the highest honor conferred on the Department’s employees and consists of the citation, signed by the Secretary and a gold medal. AW came to the Department of the Interior on May 1, 1936 as a Grazier with the Grazing Service; now known as the Bureau of Land Management. He pioneered and rendered outstanding assistance in the early stages of the Grazing program for the proper use and management of the Federal range lands. His ingenuity, judgment and utmost tact and diplomacy were used in dealing with livestock users, who for the first time were being managed in their use of Federal range. He established an outstanding reputation for the development and maintenance of excellent public relations which reflected well upon both the BLM and the Department of the Interior. Beginning early in 1954 and for many months afterwards, public lands in the Las Vegas valley were subject to an intense interest by land speculators, placer mining claimants, and home site seekers. Although the Las Vegas District Office was established primarily to administer the grazing program, AW recognized its rapidly changing role and the need for the establishment of a branch of the Land Office in Las Vegas as a district center for the dissemination of information and operations/programs to deal with the intensified land activity. He skillfully used various public relations media to avoid many problems and he established a reputation for fairness and impartiality. AW performed with distinction and dignity his varied duties as an administrator of the public lands under the jurisdiction of the BLM. Secretary of the Interior Fred A Seaton The citation and gold medal were actually given to AW by the Assistant-Secretary of the Interior, George Abbott. His presentation went as follows, “Mr. Magleby, you are being honored here today for the outstanding service you have rendered in the management of the federal range lands. Throughout your career you have established an outstanding reputation for the development and maintenance of excellent public relations which have reflected much credit upon both the Bureau of Land Management and the Department of the Interior. Your work has been characterized by sound judgment, perseverance, and a high degree of personal integrity. For your notable contributions and many years of service dedicated to the administration of the federal range resources, I am happy to present to you the highest honor of the Department of the Interior, its Distinguished Service Award, and this gold medal. My congratulations.” Several days later, the following text appeared in the local newspaper: Las Vegas Sun Thursday, January 26, 1961 “Mr. and Mrs. Magleby, 550 Bracken Ave, left Las Vegas at 2:20A.M., January 15th. The entire trip was made in a new jet plane. They are both extremely enthusiastic over this method of travel. Mr. and Mrs. Magleby visited the offices of both Nevada Senators, namely Alan Bible and Howard Cannon. Mr. Magleby spent the remaining time visiting the many departments of the Bureau of Land Management, Department of the Interior. They were extremely fortunate in witnessing the inaugural parade (the inauguration of JFK). Their hotel room was located on Pennsylvania Avenue at the point where the entire parade could be seen, and in addition they were furnished a television set by the hotel. They were extremely happy to arrive home to enjoy the splendid southern Nevada climate. During their visit in Washington several blizzards and extreme cold were experienced.” Death (age ~65) 23 May 1961, Salt Lake City, UT On 24 March 1966 AW’s mother, Almeda Civilla Winget Magleby, passed away (age ~93).
