Carriers to Report Fires

The official Postal Guide for May
calls the attention of postmasters
and rural carriers to an order of
the Post Office Department that the
carriers report to the proper author
tiles all forest fires detected along
their routes. This order was issued
at the request of the Secretary of
Agriculture.
For several years in some sections
of the country a sort of informal
understanding has existed between
National Forest rangers and mali
carriers with the idea of securing in
creased fire protection. The mark
ed effectiveness of this cooperation
was strong argument in favor of
its extension and official sanction,
and was. in part. responsible for
the request of the Secretary of Agri-
culture which resulted in the order
by the Post Office Department.
The plan is for the carrier to re-
port a fire to the nearest forest Off
Ger on his route, to have him notifi-
ed by some responsible citizen.
State and national foresters are sup
piled with post road maps and with
postal guides containing the address,
es of the different postmasters.
The postmasters in turn are supplied
by the foresters with the names.
addresses, and telephone call num-
bers of forest officers residing on or
near the carriers routes.

Prof. John F. Nicholson, bacteri-
ologist at the university. he who
writes and talks so entertainingly
along his lines of work. has to be
shown when it comes to hog cholera
in the State of Idaho.
That there is something working
havoc among the swine in the south
ern part of the State of Idaho and
Utah is not questioned. But Prof.
Nicholson has made thorough aud
sufficient investigation and expert
ments to satisfy himself and other
observing men that it isn't hog
cholora. .....
The serum which is made at the
University of Idaho by trained men
in that line, at the expense of the
State of Idaho, and by the grace of
the Twelfth session, will eradicate
hog cholera when such disease ex-
lists, but the stuff is not sufficient
to cure pulmonary diseases and kin
dred troubles. The serum manufac-
tured at the u. of I. is not a patent
medicine cure at all. To cure hog
cholera. the south Idaho growers
should use serum, but for lung
troubles University serum is not re-
commended. The experiments are
still being carried on.-Idaho Post.
