ASK FOR A FOREST RESERVE
wyoming People HOpeIb by that Means
to Put a stop 10 Forest
Fires. ..lr.
CFrom a stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1O,-(Special Tele-
gram.)-The general land office today re-
ceived a numerously signed petition from
citizens of Fremont county, Wyoming, ask
ing for the creation of a forest reserve
embracing $4,000 acres along the cont-
mental divide south Of the Shoshone In
dian reservation and west and southwest
of Lander. II is within this area that the
most disastrous forest fire In the his
tory OF Wyoming has been raging for two
or three weeks and, although the depart
ment has put forth every effort, 1t has
been unable to extinguish 1t. The people
have asked for the creation of this reserve
in the belief that by no other means can
these fires be prevented or controlled.
Once the reserve is created It will be sup
piled with an adequate force of super
visors and rangers constantly on the
ground. Now there is difficulty in getting
men to the scene of the fire. The depart
ment will at once send representatives to
investigate and report on the advisability
of Withdrawing these lands with view to
ultimate creation of the reserve. In view
of the fact that the major portion Of the
tract is mountainous and heavily timbered.
the ultimate creation Of the reserve seems
assured.

Group is hoarseness. A day or two be-
fore the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by a pc

child becomes hoarse, or even after the
rough Group appears, and it will dispel
all symptoms of Group. In this way all
danger and anxiety may be avoided.
