The report of the Forester for
1808 said of the fire record of 190S:
"That year was one of prolonged
drought during the summer and fall,
and of disastrous forest fires
throughout the country. The Na
tional Forests suffered relatively
little.' About 232.191,000 board
feat of ttmbor. or 0.08 per cent of
the stand, was destroyed. A total
of 1718 fires was reported, of which
108 were small fires confined as a
rule to an area of five acres or less.
The cost of firo fighting, exclusive
of the salaries of forest officers, was
TJ, 283.33. This sum, added to the
proportion of tha total salaries of
raugara and guards properly charge
able to pntrol and lira fighting, wnn
leas than one-twentieth of one per
cant of the value of tho timber pro
tected; estimated at an average
stuaipage value of 82 per thouasml."

doctors, operated upon at one time
for tumor, and, after finally giving
up all hope, thinking a horrible can
cer was slowly but surely eating
away her verv life itself; then. In a
short time being fully restored to
health and happiness, doing all her
own housework such Is the truly
remarkable experience of Mrs. John
Slevers, living on a ranch flue miles
southeast of Winters, Cal. The
sudden change In her condition was
d e to the fact that she finally
found physicians who knew what
was the matter with her and the
treatment required. Each and every
case, be, it merely a cold, or any
other disease affecting mankind, Is
given the most careful attention by
these masters of the medical profes
sion. If, after a careful examina
tion, they think a patient Incurable
(which rarely but sometimes hap
pens), they promptly tell the af
flicted one the facts, and refuse to
take the case under any circum
stances. This is one of the inviolate
rules of Fer-Don's Expert Medical
Specialists, and has, in a great
measure, contributed so largely to
their phenomenal auccesa. Just read
what Mrs. Slevers has to say:
"For the past ten years I have
suffered untold torture and agony
with my stomach. During all this
time I have had at least half a dosen
different physicians, but none of
them seemed to do me any good. I
had severe hemorrhages, griping
pains, and was operated upon by one
physician who thought I had a
tumor. At times I would just cry
with pain, as It seemed almost un
endurable. I had burning pains, and
my stomach was so sore that I could
not stand for anything to touch it.
I had begun to think I was afflicted

beard of the cures being made by
Fer-Don's Expert Specialists at the
Moore Hotel, Medford, Oregon, I
came In to see them, and one of
their expert diagnosticians, after
carefully examining me, said they
could cure me. It. ?med almost
too good to be ti , as only tem
porary relief was all that I expected,
If I could even get that I would
have been satisfied. However, they
treated me, using no knife, and to
day I am almost perfectly cured;
the pains have all gone. I do all my
own housework, and feel better than
I have for ten years.
"The cure they made on me Is
very remarkable to my mind, be
cause of the fact that I was so very

physicians with such little success.
