FOREST FIRE ON E FIRST OF SEASON Tint forest firs of the year was mopped up yesterday on the ove of tate closure. The fire burned over four to five tcMR of brush on the middle fork of the Applegate three miles over the California sUte line In the Rogue River national forest. Origin wna not determined but It was thought by District Ranger Lee Port that it might have been started by the lightning storm that hit the region a week or ten daya ago. The fire was reported at 7 p. m. Friday by Russell Brown, foreman at the Applegate CCC camp who aaw the smoke as he waa driving along the Applegate road. Ranger Port dispatched a crew of SO CCC men and two foreman and they brought the blaze under control at 1:16 a. m. yesterday. The fire fighters returned to camp at dawn when a relief crew of ten men took over the mopping up Job. Beginning today permits must be procured for any burning or saw mill, drag-aaw or logging operations on atato or national forests or tim ber areaa under the protection of the state or United States forest service. Applications for national forest permits should be made to the near est district ranger and not to head quarters In Medford. It was an nounced by Karl L. Jnnouch, super visor. Applications for atato permits In this district are filed with Dwlght Phlpps, district warden, at his of flee on tho Midway rond. Proclamation As Mayor of Medford, I welcome this opportunity to eitend my cordial endorsement of the nth annual sale of Buddy Popplee to be conducted In the City of Medford, May 37 and 38, under the auspices of Crater Lake Post No. 1833. Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United states. The ortght red flowers which we buy In memory of our soldier dead are symbolic of Flanders' Field and the sacrifices which sanctified that ground. In the years since the V.F.W. augurated Its annual Buddy Poppy distribution throughout tne country, the people of America have learned that this organization la dedicated to the care and welfare of disabled vet' erana, their dependents and the wid ows and orphans of former veterans In assuming this obligation "to honor the dead by helping the living," the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States have assumed leader ship In a humanitarian activity which rightfully should rest on tho- ahoul ders of all patriotic American cltlzenu. CHARLES C. FURNAS, Mayor of Mod ford IS URGED BY CITY The Water commission is asking the cooperation of the water users fn observing the few simple rules, vital to the water system, listed elsewhere In this j)aper. The first regulation limit the size of lawns or gardens that are allowed with the residential flat rate. Any residence that Irrigates a lAwn or garden in excess of the 7500 square feet specified Is charged extra at the rate of 13'ac per 100 square feet. It some limit wero not made, large tracts of land could be watered un der one flat rate service. The use of tho open hose Is for bidden bcocuise It cuts down the pres sure In the area around the sen-Ice on which the open hose Is being used In other words, the neighbors of the party utng the open hose are pen all wid. The reason for tho rule applying to the wasting of water is evident, and It Is a decided reflection on any one doing so. In asking water users to shut off their water when the fire alarm Is sounded, it is realized that the Flro department must have the maximum water pressure available during a fire to protect the property of the citizens of Medford. In the event of a large fire In some of the outlying portions of the city It would be Impossible to successfully combat It unless the water users all over the city respond d to this rule of shutting off water when the flro alarm la first sounded, and leaving H off until the "fire out" signal Is blown.
