V.ist areas of Montana and North I'.ikota yielded between one-half and two-thirds crop this year on only five Inches averatre rainfall. The normal rainfall Is 15 Inches about that of many parts of the Interior Oreson country. Without -dry" methods 'Montana and North Dakota would hav lost their crops completely In their scnit-artd districts. Land ' that re ceived only J1 Inches rainfall this year yielded crfpa due to "dry" farm ing; methods.

Two tons an acre of cured eorn fodder Is common by this system. Or. In place of corn fmlder. field peas or beans may be raised, without un filing the soil for next year's wheat.

Ill THE FOREST RANGE A II HE W.VKDEX PESCKIHES IIIS TWO WEEKS' TK1P. Only Tear . of Existing Law, He Thinks, Prevents More disastrous niaxes In the Timber. EUGENE. Or.. Sept. 2. (To the Edi tor.) The many and serious forest fires occurring during the present sea son wIlL no doubt, have a tendency to awaken those most interested, and the general public as well, to the gravity of the situation. It is not the present Intention to crit icise or point out any shortcomings In the present forest-fire law. If any short comings there are.but simply to state facts and describe conditions as they really exist today. The writer has been rangnr or warden for seven seasons: six in the Coast Fork district above Cottage Grove, and one season on the Upper Slu.law. Knowing also the con dltions In other districts from reports of other rangers, ami through personal conversation with them. I am convinced conditions are very much alike through out the different forest regions and shall therefore take the Coast Fork district aa a busts. Suppose one decides to spend one's vacation In the woods, therefore when one finds the ranger an old acquain tance, his invitation to accompany him on his dally trips la eagerly accepted. It is Julv: the ranger has his orders for the season, and his district com prises about three townships. As the rounds begin through the territory we find eettlt-rs and homesteaders' slash ings to be burned, refuse from lojrglng operations to be dispoeed of. sawmills In operation and donkey-engines log ging In the timber. Campers are out. also berry-plckers and fishermen: hunt ers come Inter, tt e then spend several days In the real woods, away back on both sides of the river in the mountains. The past Winter has added Its annual crop of leaves, fir needles, cones, ferns and fallen timber to the already heavy accumulation on the ground. We go through hemlock thickets so dense that one-half the young trees are dead crowded out. branches Uttering the ground to the dpth of from H to II inches, sometimes more. Here are rot- n logs, deadenlngs. meaning old burns. from one to several hundred acres In extent, getting the full benefit of the sun. to prepare the accumulation of years for the harvest of fire. If It chances to come this way. tt'e came across sections of timber running from 6.000.000 to 15.000,000 to the quarter section, bordering on these deadenlngs and flretraps. No need of the ranger to point out what will happen If fire comes this way, or. If conditions are right. how hopeless a fight. The ranger will state that year after year the necessity for action in this matter has been pointed out to the timber owners, hut for different reasons, such as change of management and owners, nothing has been done. Oettlng back to headquarters, we find requests for permits to burn slashings. We make personal examination of conditions and find everything O. K. Frequently, the dry slashing laps right Into the uncut brush, and Is then used as an excuse for fire getting beyond control. Some persons also seem to think a permit absolves them from re sponsibility If fire escapes through neg lect and carelessness. By proceeding a little further, we find a number of campers scattered along a little stream: most of them are careful of their fires, especially when they know a ranger to be In the vlcln- ty. Sometimes camp fires are found that are not properly built or extin guished, and many firea have their ori gin through careless campers failing properly to extinguish their fires. Hunters from a distance are coming In. 1 heir camp was noticed with the guns around the treei.. I made them show their licenses. I always carried deputy game warden's commission for this very purpose, and took their names and addresses, and informed hem that In case their fire was not roperly cared for. I would easily find hem. Some hunters come without Icenses they do not hunt here. There however, a class of local "sports men who mtike It a practice to hunt with dogs at all seasons, and the.e sportsmen" sometimes set fires to thin out the br'.i.h. "so thtt the dogs have a how." c-rlng nothing for the conse quences. At the end of the'road. a donkey-en gine Is found at work. As it strains nd labors one wonder why sparks o not set fire to the surrounding de bris. There Is a close-mesh spark-ar rester on. and It Is observed that the ground is cleared of Inflammable ma-, terlal for some distance. Water is at hand. Careful? Tes; but not all of them. Sometimes the mesh Is too coarse, or the spark-arrester is discarded en tirely, because, the engineer says, she will not draw well; or the engine Is left along during noon hour or part of the night. Then there Is likely to bo seri ous trouble. You would like to know what real. If any, damage fires are doing? It all depends. Observe from a hill here hun dreds of acres. Swept bare of timber, the blackened. limbless trunks and snags scattered here and there; all that Is left of a fine body of timber, and a continual danger to the Burrounding forest. Take the field-glass and notice on your left, some two miles up this little stream, among the deep gf'en tops, bunches of red. There was a fire there two years ago. The red spots are trees killed, not Immediately, but so Injured that they died and are the be ginnings of more small 'deadenlngs." nnd another added danger for further destruction. F.ven a ground fire in the timber docs considerable damage, al though not noticed for some time, be sides burning to the ground many-trees by gottlng into small cavities at the basn or by reason of pitch seams. Are there any intentional violations of the forest-fire law? Seo this piece of logged-off land, right across the river. The owner, a member of the Lumber Manufacturers' Association, op erated there for more than two years: ho refused to dispose 'of his tops and debris as required by law, pleading cut logs on the ground. When the work was finally completed he refused to get permit to set his refuse on fire, afraid his dignity would suffer. We made It a point to catch him in the act and a timely rain only prevented seri ous consequences. He paid his fine and. iy ma way, the Justice of the Peace did not even have a copy of the law In his possession. Io you see this haM mountain ovor there, hack of the old mill, with the scat tering timber on It? It was deliberately set on fire some years ago during the dryest part of the season. The reason? To create more "range" for some 20 or 2." head of stock. It Is railroad land. How do I know who did set the tire? Because the man admitted the fact some two years later, although I knew before. The penalty. If caught? It is found In sec tion 11 of the forest-fire law but renlly what penalty should be metedout to one who deliberately endangers and some times destroys the lives of his fellow men, not to speak of the Irreparable property loss? Sinnetlmes It works the other way. The road supervisor also has authorltv to Issue permits. A certain party, knowing his request for a permit would be re fused by the warden at that particular fine, applied to the supervisor and got the permit hecause he. the supervisor. ha4 no experience In such matters. The re sult? I he holder of the permit wns nearly burnt out of house and home. The rang"r was kept In Ignorance of the whole transaction, until the frantic ap peal for help reached him. Hut. taken as a whole, the great ma jority of the people and the real home- bullders are careful and have Intelligence enough to see that fire laws and the en forcement thereof are a necessity and not Intended as an Infringement on their "'liberty." I hare described two weeks with the ranger, and conditions as they exist. I saw tho rubbish and litter almost every- heref and wonder why there are not more fires. That is whore the ranger comes In. By being alert and ever vigi lant, he may be able to stave off the In evitable for some time, but not for good. He is allowed all the means he needs for fighting tire, but nothing for the preven tion thereof. Yet. who has not heard of the homely proverb with its ounce of prevention-' and Its pound of cure? Jj.

Const Association Ifcars Committee Report That Business Is Bad i for Sellers Xow. BELL-INGHAM. Wash., Sept. 25. Special.) The meeting of the Pacific Coast Lumber Manufacturers Associa- lon came to an end. Saturday afternoon, when the committee on markets and rices, recommended that the lumber men or Washington ana uregon unite In the effort to steady the quotations t several grades of lumber. The purport of all the other commit- tee reports was that the condition of the lumber business from the selling standpoint Is worse than It has been for several years. The suggestion was made that the association deal with the problem by bringing about a general curtailment of output by all the mills In the Pacific Northwest, but the sug gestion wa-s not acted upon. The morning was devoted to sight seeing, about 60 automobiles having been placed at the disposal of the vis itors by members of the Chamber of Commerce. Several of Belllnghams' big mills wero visited and the out-of-town members of the association were taken for a ride about the city streets and boulevards.

WOMAN CARRIED FAR; DIES She Is Toted 1 6 Miles on Stretcher to Hospital, Where Death Ensues. VANCOUVER, Wash., Sept. 25. (Special.) Mrs. Ora May Mundion, 22 years old. who was carried on a stretcher 16 miles to a hospital for an operation In an attempt to save her life, died there yesterday. When Mrs. Mundion was found by the doctors her fever was 103 and her pulso was ISO. Three of them decided that an operation must be performed .in an effort to save her life. The roads were too rough, so she was carried on stretcher. Twenty-six men, all who could be gathered in that sparsely set tled district, formed relays and carried Mrs. Mundion 16 miles, most of which distance was through the district laid bare by the recent forest fires. The operation was performed and she rallied and it was thought until shortly before her death that she would recover, but complications set In, causing death.
