R. P. He adds: "Thanks, and keep up your wonderful how-to-camp series. We've pasted up every one. Why not put 'em out in a book?" What I have to say about cold weather tents, D. R. P., is not going to settle any argument. As with practically anything con nected with the Big Open Spaces, '4 N, 1 there is no "best." Conditions vary and so does the weather. At best, any piece of outdoor equip ment must be a compromise an attempt to get most of the best, and least fo the worst. Because you are heading into high country, presumably with pack horses, your bulk and weight are factors. You must ex pect high wind. That calls for a strong tent heavy canvas and good ropes. The chances are it's going to be frosty around the edges in fact, well below freez ing. That calls for good heating. But wherever you go hunting in the Sierras, you should have ample fuel. Frankly, the most popular tent among deer hunters today is the wall type. You know, with a four-foot high wall all around, and the two sides sloping up to the ridgepole. This has a max imum of indoor space and it's no trick to heat it with a folding sheet-iron stove. Closed, this tent can be very cozy providing you don't mind the thick over cozy air. The wall tent's drawbacks are: it's heavy and bulky; the fire in a small stove burns out quick ly leaves the inside of the tent as cold as a witch's smile unless constantly replenished; and you feel confined losing the feel ing 'of the outdoors. Baker Tent Choice As for my choice and I think you'll find most old hands agree ing it's the Baker tent, also known as the shed tent. The front is completely open; the sides closed, the roof slopes back to a two-foot high wall to give more room. Usually a flap car ries across the front to provide shelter for the cooking when it 1 TONIGHT . . . HEAR discuss these questions on I Foreign Policy 1 1. Ara we winning the cold war? 2.

This flap can be closed down while you're away hunting. Or, when a big fire is blazing away out front, the flap is thrown back over the tent. You might not think so, but these open-front tents can be far more comfortable in cold weath er than a closed-up wall tent; the air is always fresh; strangely enough, they require less bedd ing; they are easier to erect; they are less bulky and weigh less a factor, as you know, when packing into the wilderness; and, as a rule, they cost a lot less. While timber cruising in New Hampshire one winter, I lived in one for a month when the weather often carried 20 below Zero and I had only one blanket. (Of course, I folded it into some thing of an envelope sleeping bag with both sides under me and the end tucked in under too.) To be sure, we kept the fire go ing all night but because it was a big fire it only needed replenishing twice. The beauty about this Baker tent is that you get the pleasure after supper of having a big fire going when it is cold and it gives you the feeling of being out in the wilderness. To get the most from the fire, use a green backlog, and when you can, build your fire with birch which won't throw sparks and set the flame with jackpine or white pine. (Avoid spruce and cedar which spark something fierce have to look out for your tent, you know.) Heat Will Reflect Before rolling in for the night, build up your fire so it is about five feet long the heat will re flect nicely into your tent and bounce off the wall onto your bed. Then pile up some wood handy so that you can toss it on without having to get entirely out of your blankets. Sleep with your feet to the fire. I've listed these precautions before but because you'll be up in the high country during late fall, I'd like to repeat your life may depend upon it. Always have the open side of your tent facing away from the prevailing winds or snow-bearing winds. Keep the tent tightly stretched then it not only sheds water better but will stand up to severe winds. A loose tent generally goes down in a hurry and if winds were to get into the front, brother, the tent is almost sure to go down and perhaps be torn wide open. Use strong poles that are long enough for the job and be sure your ground stakes are sturdy enough to hold the tent in place despite the severity of the storm. Never underestimate the size of your stakes; it is always better to have them too large than too small. Finally, before you take to the woods, be sure there are no worn places which may give way in a strong wind. The best of camping to you, D. P. R., and I hope you come back with some sweet meat for your larder.

(Doc) Simpson, for ester of the Southern Oregon Conservation and Tree Farm as sociation, spoke on the activities of that organization at the Jack son County Chamber of Com merce Roundtable yesterday noon at the Jackson hotel. This is the first year in the history of Oregon, according to Simpson, that lightning fires have exceeded man-made fires in Jackson county. He said the reason of the "fortunate" fire season was due to efforts of log gers, sportsmen and the general public. Simpson pointed out there were 202 fires reported in south ern Oregon this year, of which 11 were caused by logging oper ators. Total acres burned were 550, he added. The fire season of the Rogue River National forest ended with 88 fires, 76 of which were light ning fires, burning a total of 14 acres, Simpson said. He also reported that insects and tree diseases destroy more timber annually than fires. How ever, he added, the spruce bug has been controlled in southern Oregon. Simpson stated that now 80 per cent of forest land in the county is under forest management. Tuesday.
