The Music Shop In the 5, 10 and 15c Store A forest fire set out and fought for the purpose of providing a film picture for the amusement and in struction of an audience is a rather unusual proceeding, but this Is what occurred recently in the national for est east of Cottage Grove. Under the direction of State Biologist W. L.. Finlay, a tract of four or five hundred acres was burned, the fire being fought by a crew of seventy trained men who in their efforts ex ploited all of the modern methods of fire fighting while the fire was pho tographed by a motion picture camera. The timber which was selected was a body of very defective forest which It had been planned to cut and burn as slashings, but as the other use was proposed, the few trees which could be used for lumber were cut and removed from the flames and the fire set out. Although the timber was unfit for uso, it made an excellent fire, and within a few min utes a fire which, if it were set In some localities, would be very seri ous, was In progress. After it had obtained a good start the men began fighting it. Every means employed In extinguishing u large fire were brought into use before the camera, and a very clear idea may be ob tained from the films of the meth ods which the forest department teaches to its rangers. After the film has been developed It will be taken to the many thea tres In the state, where It will be dis played In order to educate the people of Oregon as to the work of the for est department. Many thousands of dollars' worth of timber are de stroyed annually In the county and Btate to a great extent on account of Mortgage Property Sale One Bay Work Mare 9 years old, weight 1300; 1 Bay Work Horse 8 years old, weight 1200; 2 83ts Work Harness, 3 Farm Wagons, Plows, Cultivators, Spud Digger and Planter. See them at ' 115 Granite Street the carelessness of those who are camping or spending a few days in the forests. These pictures, which show the great damage which Is done by such fires when set In a valuable I body of timber, will doubtless prove a great benefit to the forest depart ment in its efforts to prevent the ! losses. Big Slaughter In Fields Sunday The birds were on the move yes terday. Owing to the concurrence of Sunday and the opening day of the shooting season, the fields were full of hunters. One huntsman said: "I saw seven gunners chasing a poor little quail up a gulch," and the ra tio would about hold gbod through out this section. Even at that many of the hunters brought back good sized bags of quail and pheasants. So good, in fact, that it is doubtful If the hunter who was too good a church member to hunt on Sunday will have much of a show of filling the family larder. Pheasants are much scarcer than last year. Most of the landowners down along Bear creek have forbidden hunting on their lands.
