PHOENIX. July 3l.--Chairman Ely oi inc Arizona railway commission re- ,,,rel recently from an exploring tour i, ,be Mocollon mountains of New ve,i,o some distance north of Silver .Gty
 I, was accompanied on the trip by JJ Mccarthy of Florence, formerly a government scout, who was familiar vim that more or less remote region.
 Mir. Ely saw many things on the trip ,h,, reminded him of that the frontier days were not so far in the past as ope is apt to think He found many evidences of the raids of the Apaches Ion the isolated settlements, signs of probably the last sweep of Geronimo through the country.
 He visited several ruined cabins, which, save for the ravagcs of time,

USE OF TELEPHONES IN THE FOREST SERVICE

The season for forest fires has
 menced. The early summer n with their days of heat and di invariably bring with them destr to acres and acres of timber tract this country can ill afford to lose w. J. Melee, the government 's e expert, estimates the aggregate from that source, taking in all parts of the country, at no less than million dollars a day dur ing the dry spell. Last year the fires were worse than ever. Ev. erybody can recall the daily re- ports of towns wiped out, lives lost and thousands of square miles of precious woodland vast. ed. It amounted to nothing less than a public calamity. The terrible visitation formed part of the subject of President Roose- welt s famous message on the con servation of natural resources. If the fertility of American soil is not to suffer surely something must be done to guard against another devastation like that of 1908, he argued.
 For the loss is not alone to the tracts of wooded land laid waste. The character of an en tire countryside is changed by such a eonaagrataion. Many have passed through portions of vari- ous states and seen the awful effects of forest fire--the black encd stumps it leaves behind, the dreary waste of sterile. unpro- ductive land.
 Not only is timber burned up, but the loss of foliage has q de- structive effect on the atmos- phere. The development of all streams, on which the country relies for power, and which forms the distinctive feature of all American landscapes, is arrested. The indirect loss which accrues when forests are burned would be pretty hard to estimate.
 Uncle Sam, of course, knows this, and it is interesting to see what has already been done to prevent further loss. The gov ernment exercises sway only over the national forests, principally in the far west. Here prodigious steps are being taken to safeguar timber lands from destruction. ?

is nonsense, everybody knows that. But if the success to which they may be been underestimated in the past and many miles of telephone line have been constructed in the national forests. The headquarters of many of the forest officers are in isolated parts of the coun try and in some cases it takes three received, although the distance may not exceed sixty or seventy miles.

pal among the preventive measures is the use of the telephone. Already this common little instrument has succeed. ed in arresting the progress of several serious blazes, and the experts of the department of agriculture are eagerly watching for more proofs of it's eff ciency.
 In the national forests in 1908, lands extending 414,63S acres were burned over. The timber destroyed aggrepated s32, ,l9l ,00O board feet. There is food for thought in these figures. As much

clearing and goes away without stamp ing out the remains; the man who knocks the hot ashes out of his pipe by hitting it against tree trunk, and the one who throws his cigar off into the bushes at his side, little realize what follows in their wake. Probably. if told they were the cause of the great conflagration they see few days later they would be astonished.
 Quite a few of these fires are start ed by incendiaries. The iend who sets the torch to a forest differs very little descriptions. During the forest fire season the United States forest service employs 1861 rangers and guards. Each from his brother, who explodes a bomb in tenement. Thoughtless children are known to have been the cause of some fires. Still larger. number go unexplained. What to Go to cheek the spread of the flames is more pressing problem to the government than how they started.
 Fighting the Flames
 In the national forests are about 200,0C0 men ready to turn out and fight the flames whenever necessary This includes regulars and volunteers of all man has certain beat to patrol. Tax ing into consideration the area of the national forests, it can be calculated that each of these ''patrolmen " covers 12l,506 square miles. Quite long beat for a man, even on horseback.
 This is where the telephone comes in. Portable phones are made ex pressly for this purpose, and with their aid each ranger is kept in touch with his entire area. Let fire start, and immediately the wires ring with the message of warning. Strapped to the back of the ranger, the telephone is an ever-present and quicker than lightning messenger.
