Raymond Editor WEDNESDAY,- JULY 29, l't)25 THE FIRE SEASON ' The huddle of July marks the normal fire season well begun, vith nothing spectacular to compare with 1924 at this time but with indications that better organization than ever before will have plenty to test its strength. Montana and Idaho have controlled the situation so far with no appreciable damage. Washington lost some logs in May slashing fires, about $45,000 in June slashing fires, and has already had bad July fires in the Grays Harbor region with some loss of timber. Nearly 200 mostly handled promptly, have been reported for the season up to date in Washington. Oregon has had over 50, mostly slashing fires, with reported loss not exceeding $20,000. California has had little serious trouble. - . Organization is stronger in many ways than in pre vious years. Most of the states tightened up their codes last winter. The Weather Bureau forecast work has been developed. Loggers and protective forces are bet ter equipped with weather instruments and with pumps. Airplane assistance covers all coast states for the first time. The McNary law and perfected state policies are giving much better attention to reforesting lands. There is strong sentiment for rigid law enforcement. On the other hand, reports from all five states show that only absence of wind and low humidity has pre vented the very dry general condition, steadily growing worse, from resulting in a serious situation which may now be precipitated almost instantly at any time. CALIFORNIA AFTER FACTS . The California White and Sugar Pine Association re cently instituted a departure by. manufacturers' organiza tions in authorizing a special committee to employ needful technical assistance in. studying current operating and forestry problems,- such as logging equipment and methods, reforestation, brush disposal, utilization of minor species, etc. As a preliminary step, the committee employed the research department of the Western For estry and Conservation Association to make a brief field survey, accompanied by S. N. Show of the Forest Service so the government viewpoint 'would be contributed. As a result Messrs Allen and Jacobson made recommenda tions for procedure in further investigations, the first step being participation in the cooperative spark arrester study described elsewhere. - , afterwards fiund 'himself in water over his head.

NO ATCHES Don't ever confuse modern shoe repairing the kind you get here with "patching." ; ; ,f, A genuine Goodyear repair, such as we perform, means simply that the worn part of your shoe is made new again and the whole shoe improved in appearance and wearing quality. NO LOSS OF LOOKS! a Shoes repaired by the Goodyear process don't have a repaired f look. . . ' . They appear like new shoes . because actually all worn parts have been replaced with new just as is done in the factory. The expense no more than for work inferior to the Goodyear i process.
