an estimated value of $7,050, besides
destroying; immature timber, young
growth and forage valued at $1800.
In addition to these losses it cost the
forest service $5,204.54 to suppress
the fire and prevent its doing greater
damage.
The Hidden Lakes, on the Okanogan
national -forest, are in a reiiiote and
isolated region of much scenic beau
ty. It is seldom visited by anyone ex
cept sheepmen and forest rangers.
Large fires in such places arc hard
to handle because of the distance from
towns where men and supplies may
be obtained. 'Most stockmen realise
the fire damage to timber and forage,
and are very careful in the use of fire
on the ranges. Grazing permittees on
the nat:onal forests are bound by the
terms of their permits to prevent fire
and to aid in suppressing" any fires

The United States government In Its
hour of need has turned back to the
homely philosophy of Benjamin Frank
lin and lias honored "Poor Richard"
In a way that he, himself, would have
liked bost. The 1919 Issue of War
Savings Htaiups bears Franklin's por
trait. ,
Thrift Stamps for the now year nre
Identical with the 1918 issue. Nineteen
eighteen stamps may be exchanged
for the now War Savings Stamps. No
new thrift card Is necessary. ' I

compounded quarterly. !
The 1918 War Savings Stamps do:
not have to be cashed In or converted '
to the new Issue. Rather the express ;
advice of tho Treasury Department Is j
to "hold them." Each one of them
will bo worth flvo dollars January 1.
1923, whether one's card Is filled or
not.
For the 1919 War Savings Stamps i
new cards are necessary. The govern
nient warns Stamp purchaser not tu
paste War Savings Stamps of the now
Issue on til's old 1918 cards. Ask for a
new card, the Treasury Department
ays, when you buy your first Stump ot
t'-.e new iBsiie.
Every purchaser la entitled lo pur
chase n maximum of JIUOO of War Sav
ings Stamps during 1919. Each mem
ber ot u family is entitled to thlB max
imum, but to no more.
This rule Is inflexible because ot
