In the last 1G days we have had six fires. Two of them completely destroyed the homes. All the rest were caught in time to be saved, but all were damaged by some fire and water. Altogether too many fires for a small valley like ours. Residents of the valley can help stop this damage by inspecting their chimneys and flues, and see that they are properly constructed and do not have stove pipes next to wood or paper. The stove pipes can eas­ ily be insulated from wood so that there is no danger. This would only take a little trouble on a resident’s part and it might save the home. The Forest Service truck has done a marvelous job with all these fires. And the Cave Junction truck has helped. But the city truck has no direct communica­ tion w here they can be notified, but the Forest Service has a telephone line that can be reached. Consequently they get all the calls and gladly respond. There will come a time when the Forest Service truck will not be available, for they have their own job to look after, then it behooves the residents to look after their own interests and see that all fire hazards are removed from their houses. private lands.
