Forest Fires.

Forest fires are raging in many
sections of the state and are des-
troy'ng thousands of acres of valu-
able timber, which means a dead
loss to the communities in which
the fires are burning, and to every
citizen Of the state. At Hoover, ON
the east end of the G. Il e. rail
road, fire the first of the week COM
pletely destroyed the town, render
ing many families homeless. This
Is one of the driest seasons for
years ana little fire started in the
timber of this county might destroy
millions of dollars worth of prop
erty and many lives, and ruin the
county, as the timber is one of the
chief resources of the county. As
" precaution to prevent the setting
OF hres our County Court is making
every effort to patrol the forests and
educate our people regarding the
law, which is being reproduced in
this issue. We hope every person
in the county will read and be
governed thereby. Be careful of
starting fires and see that everyone
else obeys the law.
