HEAVY LOSS IN
FOREST FIRES

state Land Register T.. II. Ray has
submitted his annual report on the
lands owned by the state of Montana
to Governor Norris. The report
shows that the state expended S15,-
S2S.6O to fight forest fires during the
past year and that 10000, 900 feet of
standing timber was killed by fire.
This dead timber is now being offered
for sale. The larger portion of it is
perfectly good for commercial pur-
poses and will be as tit as any other
timber it is estimated that "a 4,O24. 900
feet is on the water shed of the north
fork Of the Flathead river and 5000.

farm horses has scared away upward.
There are no reasons for surprising
that this price will fall at least i'm the
near future. The first cost of oxen
is not more than one-third that Of
horses. 1t certainly is not more than
"le-Ialf that of the former.
Cost Of Feed.
Then there is great difference in
the cost of feed. The horses must
have grain, and grain meanwhile, is
exceedingly costly. They must have
hay most of the year, and hay is very
dear. 1t is different with oxen. They
can get their living out on the prairie
most OF the year, even when they are
at work. They will be able to do
this without the need of grain. Will
1t not he very much cheaper, there
tore, to dO much Of the breaking with
oxen rather than with horses, until
the homesteader gets established in
his work?
OF course oxen would not work so
fast rs horses. but they would be
able to do very much work in the
course Of the season. They would
not bt nearly so liable to injury as
horses. and the work of caring for
them is small compared with the
work of caring for horses. Why then
Woulu it not be wise on the part Of
some homesteaders to try to begin
work with oxen instead Of horses?
They are still valuable for meat when
their work is done.
One difficulty in the way is the
little knowledge that is now gener-
ally possessed with reference to the
handling of oxen. This is Il serious
obstacle but not SO serious that it is
impossible to overcome it. One who
has been accustomed to farm work
should soon learn to be able to ham
die properly yoke of oxen. Surely
this question is of sufficient ;mpor-
tance to call for serious considpra-
ton Oh the part of many homestead
ers who are now locating in dry
areas.
