PROTECT YOUR GRASS

1t is now the time of year that
ranchmen should protect their
grass against possible fires.
Fire guards should be at once
put around every pasture as a
safeguard against the loss of
thousands of acres of grass. that
is badly needed to carry the
stock through the approaching
winter.
Now since the rains, grass will
green up considerably and the
Danger will not be great for sew
eral weeks, but during that time.
and while the ground is in shape
10 pillow, the fire guards should
be made. As soon as the first
frost comes. and the grass begins
to cure. there will be danger Of
the range being swept clean By
prairie fires that often sweep
down over this country.
Feed stuff will be very high,
and ranchmen should save every
blade of grass that they have.
After these safeguards are
thrown about the pasture, men
should be very careful about
throwing cigarette stubs or any
thing else that has fire about il,
into the grass. Remember that
a little carelessness on your part
might damage somebody to the
extent of thousands of dollars.
Campers should exercise great
precautions and not let fire get
started in the grass BY means Of
sparks being blown by the wind
and lodging in the glass.

COST OF TEXAS GOVERN
MENT

That it costs something to adj
minister the state government OF
Texas is attested by the figures
for the past year Just given out
in the city of Austin. The cost
of supporting and maintaining
the state government for the
year ending August 81. aggre-
gated SIS, 5l2, 676.57, which in
wolves an increase of $3.50. 10S. IL
over the previous year, accord
ing to the figures as furnished
by the comptroller's department.
The previous year, ending
August 81, 1912. the total ex-
penditures were 4,6S2, 56S. Is.
This clearly demonstrates the
fact that the costs of operating
the state government is increas-
ing at the rate of nearly 81 600. =
900 a year.
These figures do not include
81, 600, 600 expended in the two
fiscal years for the payment of
Confederate pensions. The ex-
act amount expended in 1912 for
pensions amounted to $3.50, 529. 80
while for the fiscal year OF 1908,
ending August 81, the amount
expended reaches $500. 600.
This is how the states funds
were expended monthly for the
fiscal year ending August 81,
