ed and have been cut over, if fires are
excluded. This is fully demonstrated
in cases where by reason of natural pro-
lection or vigilance on the part of own
ers the fires have been kept out. But,
as it is, there is but very small per
cent of the wooded area of the county
that has not been visited at some time
or other, frequently many times, by
forest fires. Practically the only ex-
ceptiOns are isolated tracts that h I'VE
natural protection, or as in the case Of
a few tracts where the owners have by
maintaining a patrol or a very close
watch kept out fires. 1t is, therefore,
apparent that the control of forest fires
is the most important forest work in the
county today. Before the state forest
work was organized in 1906 there were
no records to show the number of fires
and the actual amount of damage 1t
is probable, however, that this damage
amounted to more than $50, 900 a year.

where to secure suitable material. But
even in this day of fast waning timber
supplies. the timber cut for the county
in 1909 had value at the mills of ap-
proximately $1.12O,612, which nearly
equals the value of the farm crops. The
forests of the county are being drawn
upon for diversity of products, which
may be conveniently classified under
the following heads:
Lumber, laths, shingles, ties, mine
props, tan bark, poles, posts. piles and
miscellaneous.
Lumber. The lumber cut of the
county for 1909 amounted to 60, O23, 900
feet, board measure, with a value at
the mills where where it was produce d

for lumber, the amount cut, and the

BATHROOM SHOCKS.
Keep Away From Electric Fixtures
While Your Skin Is Wet.

A man is in much greater danger
from electric shock when taking a bath
than under ordinary conditions, as the
surface of the body when moist offers
much less resistance to the current
than when dry. Persons have been
killed while bathing by current that
would scarcely have affected them out
side the bath. says Cosmos of Paris.
BalthaZard told at the Society Of
Legal Medicine of the case of a lady
killed by electric shock in her bath
room ut the moment when she was
pressing the button of an electric bell
between the poles of which there was
difference of potential of not mere

THE DEATH RECUKu
ELLIOTT MORELAND.

Elliott Moreland, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
James Moreland, died at the Home
Sanitarium on Oct 25th, of appen-
dicitis. He was aged little over nine
teen years. He was faithful member
of the NJ. E, church, a christian in the
full sense of the word unselfsh and
obedient and loved by all who knew him
He leaves beside his parents two
brothers and five sisters, who feel their
loss most keenly. Death is always sad
and when the young with so much of
life and hope before them are called to
close their eyes on all they love so well,
none can fathom the depths of that
sadness. The funeral service was held
at home. The sermon was preached by
his former pastor, Rev. Johnson. He
was laid to rest by loving hands. We
have bright hope that some day we
shall meet again. A FRIEND.

Turkey Shipment rlay Be Forbidden

That Thanksgiving Day dinner prices
will disappolnt the laboring man this
year if he expects with his family to
gather around the tempting brown
turkey, which his Puritan ancestors
sacrificed as the bird of thanksgiving
and thus began an annual custom, is
the belief expressed around the markets
Saturday night.
The prices of all fowl advanced last
week. Dressed chickens rose Al cents
a pound above the price of last week;
geese, ducks and turkeys increased 2
cents. This, according to commission
merchants, is due to the sudden and
widespread prevalence of the hoof and
mouth disease among the live stock.
at is little early for the regular
Thanksgiving demand in the turkey
market and that probably is the reason
for the small increase in the price of
that fowl" saba commission merchant,
but there is no doubt that the hoof-
and-mouth disease will have a strong
tendency to elevate the price.
That the turkey situation is piv-
otal is surety. 1t depends on the
action of the government and the ex-
tent of the investigation made. If the
disease around the barnyards continues
to be revealed, and there is a whole
sale quarantine among the stock. there
is sure to be a greater demand for
other meats, and the turkey consumer
will be the prime sufferer at this time.
