FOREST FIRES
WELL IN HAND
Bunch of Crangeville Men To
Joseph; Forest Service
Sent Force Out.

Cheering news comes from both the
Joseph and Wind river forest fires at
this time Things were looking very
bad several times last week in both
sections. An appeal came from Joseph
to Deputy Supervisor Brown for as
sistance on THURSDAY night, but the
forest service had its hands full with
the fire in the Wind river country and
could render no aid. The Grangeville
citizens at once went to work and got
up a bunch of men, all that horses
could be found for, and started them
about midnight to the scene of the
fire. Other assistance together with a
supply of shoves were also sent out
the next day, and at this time the fire
Is said to be well under control. Just
the extent of damage done has not
been learned.
At present the Nez Perce forest under
Supervisor Ring, has some twenty five
fire fighters In the field Selway for
est under Supervisor Frank Fem has
from $50 to 175 men looking after the
fires. Clearwater forest under Super
visor Fisher has between $50 and III
men fighting fire. Improved conditions
are reported in all three of these for
. est sections at this time.

+. Inquiries are coming from all sections
regarding the $3.50 silver mounted sad
die to be given by the local saddlery of
Snyder & Miller as the grand prize in
the bucking contests, and asking for
the terms under which 1t can be COM
peted for. 1t is a settled fact that the
home riders and buckaroos are going
to get in on this grand prize, and the
man who wins 1t will certainly have
something to be proud of and well worth
the effort. The liberal cash prizes in
addition to the saddle will attract every

The motto: Bigger and Better Than

Up In Flames.

Last Thursday evening at 7:10, as
Emil Won Berge. who was operating his
and his fathers threshing machine, was
Joe Mcdonald place west of town, which
is rented by Dick Gear, the machine
took fire and was consumed in a very
short time All that was left was
pile of scrap iron. Something like 100
sacks OF wheat belonging to Gear were
burned and scorched so badly as to be
fit only for hog feed, and the straw
stack was also burned. The property
destroyed was total loss, there be-
ing no insurance on either the machine
or grain. Under the present epidemic
of explosions and fires the insurance
companies have become panicy and re-

BARLEY GOES 72 BUSHELS.

The largest yield of grain to be re-
ported at this office this season, says
the Ferdinand Enterprise, is from the
field of winter barley raised on o. p.
Fry's farm south of town. The grain
was seeded early last fall on summer
fallow and is said to have been the
earliest piece of grain to ripen in this
section. The grain was bound the last
week in July. and when threshed this
week turned out s52 sacks of number
one barley from field Of twenty eight
acres. The average weight per sack
Calcutta was 1l5 pounds. giving an
average of something more than ~
bushels to the acre. This is the best
