Fierce fires are still raging in the
kankakee marshes in Northern Indiana

innate can be made as to the losses.
An exchange says: at would be well
when the trees shed their leaves and
the latter are raked up and fred if
neighborhoods would join together as
nearly as possible and set fire to them
al at once, and thus get rid of the
smoke that becomes such an annoyance
when everybody takes his own time in
firing them, thus protracting the annoy
ance over many days, when few hours
suffice" One can easily see the benefit
to be gained by such an arrangement.
In city like Plymouth for instance:
we are blessed with an abundance of
shade, and not one of us would be with
out It, but all admit that when autumn
comes and the leaves fall, filling the
streets and dOOryards they become a
yeritable nuisance, and any scheme
which tends to speedy abatement of
it should meet with the hearty com
mendatiOn of all.
