FOREST SERVICE HOPES
FOR LESS FIRES IN 1918
Sentinel Special Service.

Washington. Juiy 16,-As tho
summer progresses without heavy
fire losses on the national forests,
the forest service is having higher
hopes for small fire damage during
1913. Not only has the fire loss on
national forests to date been crafty
ingly small, but conditions every
where except in the southwest. ac-
cording to the officials Of the forest
service. are more than ordinarily ia
vorable. They point out, however.
that the situation may change al
most over night, and that Il compara-
lively short period of general dry
weather aud high winds may bring
disaster. The appropriations for fire
lighting are not yet large enough to
insure immunity from heavy losses.
A system of telegraphic reports
from the field keep the chief forester
NJ Washington informed as to eondi-
tons on the l63 forests under fed
eral supervision. During the past
week general rains in the far west
ern states. with the exception of Ar
iona and New Mexico, have reduced
the present fire danger to mini
mum; but in the latter two states
the weather is reported very dry,
with occasional electrical storms that
bring chances for fires set by light
ming. Four fires are burning on the
Coconino forest in Arizona, and dur
Ing the past week there have been
5S fires all told in the two south
western states. The acreage burned
Is reported as 2,090 acres. as against
only 20 acres reported burned on
national forests in all the other west
ern states.
Thus far this season there have
been 3o.7eS acres burned over on the
national forests, or only .ol6 per
cent OF the acreage which the forests
include.

the company agreed to furnish at
