While the early -forest fires reported in May were jKostiy in slashings and without loss, Jane opens the commonly-recognized f 'm season with indications of a -dangerous year that demands mora -than nsual precaution, according to traDctins received today by the "Western Forestry & Conservation -Association from all states in the ( -northwest. Much less than .the nsual amount of snow remains the mountains and in some regions there have already been several eels of dry weather broken only by one short rain. Atmospheric con 33Ctu seem to be conducive to ifreqncnt dry interior winds, requiring extraordinary precaution in firing sabhings. Patrols are already in tSie field and being rapidly recruited ita their full strength. Unless there shall be rain in June trouble is ex lpecfed, but the protective organi sation to meet it will be better than 5a any past year. . . Washington has fully 100 fires in Slay, some of them receiving much fmblicity, but practically all were slashing fires more useful than otherwise. About 75 per cent of loggers' slashings are thus cleaned up, removing' danger later. A little green timber killed by a fire in Ceal lam county resulted from road-build ers' carelessness, with some logs and equipment burned in a Chehalis county slashing, comprise the only actual damage. The state has county wardens on duty and is very active in educational workv The . Wash ington Forest Fire Association has 80 men in the field. Road builders' debris now constitutes the worst hi.zard. Idaho reports fairly frequent rains and no fires yet. On the other hand, an early spring and dense vegetation make dry weather more to be feared than usual. Contrary to Washing ton, rigTits of way are in better con dition than slashing especially those of settlers and small loggers. Patrol forces are cleaning up fire-traps and working on trail and telephone sys tems. ' Montana conditions are much like those of Idaho. There have been no important fires. - Oregon had three or four small Budweiser and Rainier 5EER.,,. o o Delivered to any part of the city. Family trade a specialty B. W.

The slate forester urges continuation of purposeful slash burning, under per mit and with full precaution. He has alout 20 men in the field. Private patrol associations also began work in May and will have 350 men on duty by July 1. Throughout the northwest, co- op eration between private, state and federal forces is more complete than in past years. The Weeks law fund, granted by Congress to states with efficient systems, has again given Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Mon tana important financial assistance. Much attention is being given by all agencies to lookout stations and tele, phone ; extensions. In short, all re port excellent preparations to meet a bad year but urge earnest co-operation by those who use fire in the woods. Careful handling of slash ings by settlers, road crews and log gers is agreed to be the most urgent need at this stage of the season. Notice of Contest.
