Forest Fire
Losses Low
Roy Rogers Shoots
Self and Trigger
In Target Practice
EDINBURGH, Scotland (P)
Cowboy film star Roy Rog
ers shot himself and his horse
Trigger during a week-end
performance at a local theater.
But tell the kids to relax.
Rogers escaped with a slight
nosebleed and Trigger with a
stung flank.
They . were hit by small
pellets which ricocheted off
the stage while Roy was dem
onstrating his pistol marksmanship.
Forest fire losses on lands un
der the jurisdiction of the state
forestry department and its co
operating protective association
during the 1953 fire season was
only $29,831, the smallest figure
since 1930.
The major portion of the losses,
other than those under the classi
fication of "miscellaneous" were
in logging operations with a figure
of $6230. This entire amount, with
the single exception of $180 which
represented log loss, was in log
ging equipment.
The largest fire occurring dur
ing the season covered 202 acres
of land. This is the first time in
the history of the forestry depart
ment that the largest fire for any
one season has burned over such
small acreage. Further, the an
nouncement stales that no damage
on this fire was reported, because
the fire burned through a slash
ing in Douglas county.
Lightning caused the greatest
number of fires 459 with a total
loss of $4,968. Careless smokers
were next on the list causing 110
fires with $1,975 damage resulting.
A total of 95 fires with a damage
of $12,541, was attributed to mis
cellaneous causes. Other forest
fire causes, the report said, were
incendiary, camp fires, debris
burning, slashing, logging opera
tion and sparks from railroad locomotives.
