In the Ruins of Nations Worst 1910 Catastrophe

The summer of 1910 must be
put down as tho blacklist season
in the annals of the forest districts
OF the northwest.
In Washington, Oregon, the pam
handle of Idaho, western Montana
and northern Minnesota there were
devastated by fire districts aggre-
eating perhaps nearly as large an
area as the whole of Ireland.
Scores of lives were lost. Billions
of feet of timber was destroyed.
The loss, estimated in dollars,
must be counted in hundreds of
millions.
Now that winter has come and
tho rains and SHOWS have fallen on
tho waste districts, puttisg out the
smoldering fires, the forestry off
Gals arc making a survey of the
district and counting tho cost. They
find that, roughly, this Is what the
fires of the summer of 1910 have
done:
They have taken more than a
hundred lives, "a In the far north
west and 80, possibly so, in the
Lake of the Woods region, and
have made hundreds of families
homeless.
They have laid waste in the Bit
ter Root mountains a district 100
miles long and 80 miles wide. This
in As hours.
They have destroyed in southern
Oregon 100000 feet of stand
ing timber.
In tho two states of Oregon and
Washington they have destroyed
billion feet of national forest tim
bef.
They swept great tract in
western Montana.
In northern Minnesota they de-
stroyed $2,000,0OO worth of tim
Der IN ONE DAY.
In the whole country they de-
stroyed timber to the value oil
$175, 100000 to 100000, 200, thel
entire lumber cut of two years, |
about EIGHTY BILLION FEET.

A good watch-tower system.
A co-ordinated system of tele-

A fully equipped pack-horse

HOW RICHARD HELPED

Richard had spent many weeks
Iof his six summers on grandpa's
farm, but he was now making his
first visit at the sugar-making sea-
lson.
He was very much interesteS
land delighted with everything
staying out In the sugar house
with grandpa and Joe, the chore
boy, watching them pile wood on
the roaring fire, and tasting the
boiling sap. And the best of all
was the "sugaring off,"
His first night at the farm 1,
rained, and the next morning he
went around with Joe and helped
empty the buckets that were hang
ing on the trees to catch the sap.
Richard was very pleased when
Joe told grandpa what great help
he had been. because he liked to
be useful.
The next morning Joe had to
cut wood, and grandma was busy
boiling sap. Richard wandered
out from the sugar house among
the trees. BY standing on tiptoe
and peeping into some of the low
hanging buckets, he found that
they We're filling up again.
Now, Richard hadn't under
stood the day before that the rea-
son Joe emptied the buckets was
because there was so much rain in
them that the sap was spoiled. He
thought that was part of the work.
He was glad to thing he could
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-02-24

help again. and began to empty
all the buckets that he could reach.
Grandpa became worried because
the little boy was gone so long,
and started out to look for him.
He felt like seofding, but when
he found out Richards mistake he
laughed and said hss@uessed the
boy hadn't throw away more than
a pound of sugar.
Just then Joe came, with old
Bill and Kit hitched to the bob
sled, and grandpa said Richard
might go with him and help gath
er sap if he would remember to
empty the buckets into the tank
on the sled instead of on the
ground,
