Forest Fire Danger Higher Than In Years, How do you report a forest fire? Keep Oregon Green headquarters advises the process Is very simple. Just go to the nearest telephone and say: "I want to report a for est fire." The operator will con nect you with the nearest fire warden. This was the information given by Keep Oregon Green County Chairman Judge Barratt of Mor row County in a stepped up drive to atch forest fires before they spread. Said the county chairman: "This is the worst fire danger year In the past third of a century. We must prevent every possible man caused blaze. Any fire today is a potential killer of people and destroyer of timber, payrolls and Jobs. We need the full-time sup port of every man, woman and child." "No rain has fallen of conse quence since the last of March," the fire prevention leader stated. "There Is little hope for the rest of the summer. We urge every citizen of this county to appoint himself a committee of one to stop forest fires for the duration.' Fire protection leaders in the Heppner area are Wayne W.

Saager's Pharmacy KEEP COOL AT OUR FOUNTAIN Data on Oregon Meat Animals And Wool Available Farm production of meat ani mals in the state two years ago amounted to more than 400 mil ion pounds liveweight, it is re corded in a new Oregon State college extension bulletin, num ber 718, entitled, "Oregon's Meat Animals and Wool," which Is now ready for distribution through county extension offices. The 24-page publication is a statistical yearbook containing estimates on numbers, prices, and income for the years 1925 to 1951. It was compiled by OSC ex tension agricultural economists. The bulletin includes inform ation on cattle, sheep and wool, and hogs as well as cash receipts and price data. More money is received by Oregon farmers from meat ani mals and wool than from any of the 12 farm commodity groups for which statistical yearbooks are prepared, the economists de clare. Cash receipts from farm marketings was $93,550,000 last year as compared with $29,048,000 in 1940. . Income from . cattle and calves ! accounted for almost three-four ths of the total received from meat animals and wool. In 1949, the last year for which figures are complete, Malheur county led in cattle and calf pro duction, Douglas led in sheep and lamb production, and Wal lowa was the state's leading swine producing county. Wool production, the bulletin says, has been on a steady de cline since 1934 with the excep tion of 1941 when there was only a slight increase from the year before and 1950 which showed a 3 percent increase over 1949. Yet the 1950 wool clip was only one- half the 1939-48 average. The total number of cattle on Oregon farms on January 1 this year was 1 percent greater than on the same date in 1950. While milk cows have decreased, beef cow numbers have been on the rise. Copies of the bulletin are also available directly from the col lege. o DRIVERS LICENSE EXAMINER COMING A drivers license examiner will be on duty in Heppner in Tues day, August 7 at the court house between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Persons wishing licenses or permits to drive are requested to get in touch with the examiner well ahead of closing hours to assure completion of their ap plication. o Don't burn debris on a windy day; it's dangerous!
