fewer forest
fires In STATE
Blame for Burning Of Tim
Der Placed on Railroads
and Stock Owners.

FOREST fires having during the past
season been very much less prevail

rational department of agriculture, c
the lands included within the Arkan-
sas national forest boundaries than
trey have on the outside 1t is stat
ed that fully so per cent fewer fire.
burned on the lands where the gov
eminent seeks to secure protection
than in the surrounding localities
Where the exposure to fire was esen-
tially the same.
The governments foresters ascribe
Ill. large number of fires last fall,
which was one of the forst fire sea-
sens ever known in northern and
western Arkansas. TO the exception
ally inflammable state of the forests.
Unusually light rainfall thraughout
Tic summer was followed by heavy
ire csts the first of November. This
ca"sed sudden falling Of the leaves
and covered the ground in the tim
bered regions with "A layer OF finder
like material. The result was a
veritable fire epidemic, which RACED
until checked by rains early in De-
ccmber.
Outbreaks of forest fires in Arkan-
sas are reported as due principally to
railroads and to the burning over of
range by stock owners. The forestry
officials of the government emphasize
the necessity for the use by railroads
OF adequate spark arresters during
dry times, and for keeping the rights
of way clear of inflammable material
To the stock owners it is pointed out
that the damage done by forest fires
far exceeds their benefits. AS the
public realizes better the harm that
fires cause their numbers decrease.
Th. best protection, says the forest
service. is an educated public senti-
ment seconded by an effective organi-
cation.
The much smaller number of fires
this year on the national forest lands,
a., compared with outside lands, is
pointed to as an illustration of the
difference that public sentiment
makes. On the Ozark forest senti-
ment against fires has been develop
ing during the past six years of gov
eminent administration. At the be
ginning of November there was on
the ground, according to the forest
officers. heavy black oak mast
which the nearby residents were de-
pending upon to fatten their boss.
This created. it is said, an earnest
desire on their part to see that tires
were kept out of the woods. AS ?
result none were started bv respon-
sible persons, and where fires did
start the local residents were ready
t, turn in and fight them.
II the people of the state of Ar
E-rsas want to keep fires out. they
ran doubtless do it. Some human
orc therefore comfortable agency IS
the cause of practically all forest
f;.as within the state. Every person
Who goes into the woods can DO ms
share by seeing to it that never under
ary circumstances does fire escape
through his carelessness or neglect

MORE FINISHED
G0ODSC0ME To
UNITED STATES
During First Eight Months
of New Tariff System In
crease of 0.0 Per Cent. of
Finished Produ cts is
Noted

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Foreigr
manufacturers sent into the United
States during the first eight months
Of the new tariff system just S.S per
cent more of their finished product
than they did under the old. This
was pointed to tonight by Secretary
Redfield as an ample demonstration
that there was no ground for the
fears of American factory owners
that they would be driven from bus
mess by the democratic tariff.
Importations of foodstuffs showed
a large percentage of increase in the
eight months which ended with May,
while foodstuff exports fell off sub
5tantially. There was a relatively
small reduction in the amount of
completed manufactures exported.
The figures said Redfield, show
as il is normal they should. the re-
suit Of the world wide depression in
commerce as modified by our own
shortage of .foodstuffs, arising from
inadequate crops of last year. which
condition is rapidly passing away.
They indicate also that our com
peting power manufacturing is well
scattered because at a time when
commercial rivals are eager and un-
willing to buy, the item of exports
of fully finished manufactures is de-
pressed relatively little and the item
of imports of finished manufactures
increases relatively little"
