What starts these forest fires? This question has been asked over and over again this summer by read ers of the accounts of the destructive fires which have been raging in all parts of the country. Campers and locomotives, is the usual answer. Many of the other things which start blazes in the for est are forgotten. It is true that perhaps one-half to three-fourJhs of the forest fires do begin as a result of the carelessness of some camper, or from sparks flying from loco motives, but there are a number of things which set the woods a fire. A complete report of forest fires on the private forests of the country and their causes is not kept by any one. Uncle Sam, however, is most done by the blazes on his timberland under forest administration, aggre gating about 16S.000.000 acres, and each year the total area burned over, the timberland burned over, the amount of timber destroyed and it3 value, the cost of fighting fires, and the causes of fires are carefully checked up. These reports are made at the end of the calender year, and the announcement of this year's losses will therefore not be known for more than two months. Last year's figures, however, give a good idea of the things which cause fires in forests. Of the l,3oo fires discovered on thp national forests last year, all of which were checked by the rangers before they had burn ed over fourteen hundredths of one per cent (14-100 of 1 per cent) of the national forest area, campers caused 346, while railroads followed next with 273; lightning came next, with 176; donkey engines used in "lumbering operations, fourth, with C5; careless brush burning by home steaders clearing land, 34; fires caused by Incendiaries and those set by herders and hunters, 30. For more than 400 of the fires the cause Is not known. This is not strange when it is remembered that a fire may smolder for days if the air is too thick to permit the smoke to be seen at a distance before it breaks out when fanned by a wind so as. to reveal Its presence to the watchful forest officer. hile campers caused more fires than locomotives last year, there are many seasons w hen the railroads hold undisputed claim to first place. For est fires started by both are mostly unnecessary. If campers would exer ciso caro In starting camp fires and be sure that they are extinguished before they are left, and if the rail road companies would use the most modern and efficient spark arresters, It Is reasonable to think that the an nual forest fire loss could be reduced more than one-half. Lightning ranks third among the causes of fires, and of courso, man has no greater respon sibility in this case than to put the fire out as soon as possible after dis covory. Careless brush burning by homesteaders nnd persons clearing land is said to be the cause of many of the fires which have started this year, particularly tlioso which have swept over the lake states. The ranger forco on many of the national forests have been kept busy lighting fires which, if left to run unchecked, would have done Incal- culahlo damage. By quickening communication between important points through the construction of telephone lines, and building roads and trails, the national forests have been .undo more accessible during the past two yonrs nnd fire fighting has been greatly facilitated.

S, S When men are rightly occu S pled, their amusement grows si out of their work, as the color ' petals out of a fruitful flower; X when they are faithfully help ii. ful and compassionate, all the ; emotions become steady, cjeep, S perpetual, and vivifying to the X sonl as the natural pulse of the y body. X RUSKIN. V? A CONUNDRUM. Returning; home at close of day. Who quietly chides my long delay? Who greets me In a cheerful way? Nobody! Who caters to my every care? Who makes me take the easy chair,? Who puts my cosy slippers there? Nobody! Who has my dinner steaming hot? Who for my welfare cares, a-jot? Who heeds if I am sick or not? Nobody 1 But who will presently do this? Who's going to give me every bliss? Who must you know? well, it is Miss Somebody! G. G - - d - - m. YOU DESERVE IT! Have you ever been struck With the thought that luck Is just plain pluck? That the big rewards Have come in hordes To the men who've strained with their thews and cords? Why, you can win If you don't give in. You can climb as high as your strength will go, And only your weakness will keep you low. The tumble you took last year won't count If you have ambition enough to mount. But if the effort makes you quail. And the first hard tussle turns you pale, You deserve to fail. Why does one look for sympathy 'n he saint and find it in the sin ner? Will there ever be born a woman endowed with a mathematical sense accurate enough to meet a man half way? When an employer discharges a clerk his wife, his father, his mother and his children all begin to hate the employer. Most bachelors are looking for a woman who will fulfill their Ideal of a wife, but they would be better sat isfied with one who tried to fulfill her own. When a young man proposes to a girl and she asks time to consider, It may mean that she wants to con sider the ad Inability of breaking off another engagement. "Why did their marriage prove mutually disappointing?" "He married her because she was poor and could make her own gowns, and she married him because he was rich and she wouldn't have to." When a woman falls in love with a man she is prepared to find him out. A woman In love believes a whole lot of things about the subject of her affections that he is sure to disappoint her in, and she will claim finally that he "deceived" her. ROYCROFT PHILOSOPHY. Verily In the midst of life we are in debt. Anyone can sympathize with people jn trouble, but to take joy In their success requires some one bigger than I. Often a good way to conquer Is to wisely submit. Think less about your rights, more about your duties. Men are great only as they are kind. They say what say they? Let them say. Aim high and consider yourself ca pable of great things, Do your work as well as you can and be kind. The gossip habit Is, a disease. If you have gossip germs on your per son, .please disinfect before entering here. This placo stands for head, hand and heart for happiness, health and holpfulnoss.
