The governor's order suspended the permit requirements for un- ! regulated use of fire until the season is ciosea again in i:tn. ,With official termination of the fire season, Southwick said the Douglas Forest Protective Asso ciation has had Its most success ful fire season with respect to the number of fires occurring and acreage burned. There was a total of 33 fires in the association's protective area. Twenty-seven were less than a quarter-acre; three, from a quarter-acre to 10 acres In ex tent, and three of more than 10 acres. Actual acreage classed as "burned" was negligible, as the larger fires were confined to logging slash, which normally would have been burned in the fall anyway, Southwick said. Total damage for the season amounted to $2,000 In felled and bucked timber. There was no damage to standing timber in Douglass County this year.

Water System Buy Considered REEDSPORT Possibility of purchasing the water system at Winchester Bay, now owned by the City of Reedsport, was dis cussed with the city council by of ficials of the Winchester Bay Rural Fire District last week. Water U furnished through a six-inch transit line which ex tends from the city's line from Clear Lake to Reedsport, to the townsite at Winchester Bav, a distance of approximately 5,000 feet. The recently organized fire dis trict has 400 feet of hose, a trailer on which to haul it, and a siren installed at a central location. Di rectors of (he district who attend ed the city Council meeting said that new hydrants are essential. Details discussed were the price to be asked for the distribution system, terms, contract for the purchase of water, etc. The tent a. tive plan Is for the community to purchase water from Reedsport at a w-holosale rate, through a meter to be installed where the six-inch line leaves the main line. No objections were raised to the fire district's proposal to pur chase the water system at Win chester Bay. Next step will be to determine whether the fire dis trict can legally take the step or whether a separate water district must be formed.
