The forest fires which

The forest fires which have
abounded of late in Grant and
other parishes during the prevail
eace of the drouth have destroyed
great deal of valuable timber,
beside seriously injuring the grass
range. burning up fences for per-
sons who could i'll afford to lose
them, aud in some cases endanger-
ing the homes and lives of a num-
bsr of families. 1t is high time a
st,p was put to this silly and
criminal practice of burning our
" ,ods. There is plenty of law on
the subject, but the trouble lies
with our citizens, who fail to report
offences when they are brought to
tn air knowledge.
