Cficials O. Forestry Department Say
That If Precipitation Was General
Throughout the State the Worst Of
the Work Of Devastation Is Ended

The rain of last night and early this
morning did a great deal toward check
ing forest fires that have been raging
in the Cumberland Valley, according to
Information received this forenoon at
the office of the State Forestry Com
mission in this city. 1t was stated at
the offices of the Commission that if
the rainfall was general throughout the
State the greatest danger from such
fires has probably passed. The Com
mission, however, declares that it is
keeping strict watch to prevent re-
newed outbreaks.
Forest fire fighters in the Susquehan-
ma valley were aided by the rain which
was general in this valley, according
TO reports coming to the local office of
the Weather Bureau. The rainfall
averaged is of an inch in the valley.
The heaviest precipitation was at To
wanda where .2S of an inch fell. Har-
risburg had .19. The weather will re-
main cloudy with rise in temperature
tomorrow.
The Forestry Commission to-day re-
ceived reports of two serious forest
fires in the oil region, one of which
burned oil tanks and derricks, but the
fire-fghting system is now reported to
be pretty well organized in that sec
tion, and the fires are about subdued.
Near Kane two derrieks were burned
and an oil tank went up in flames.
In South Mountain Region
In the South mountain region the
fire ragged with awful effect. A big fire,
started in the Cumberland Valley near

thorities to have been the work of an
ineendiary. 1t burned up the side of
the mountain, passed the crest and
swept down the other side with awful
force into the Hunters run valley,
taking course towards Pine Grove,
which fortunately it did not reach. SO
close did it get to Pine Grove, how
ever, that it burned the bungalow of
DR.. c. j. Hunt, of the State Health
Department, just as he was preparing
to take possession of it for the summer
The woods surrounding the camp of
the famous explorers were burned
just on the edge of Pine Grove. Men
started to fight the flames, but had not
gone far when they were confronted
by an immense volume of smoke that
almost suffocated them. Then came the
flames, at least twenty feet high. 1t
was useless to endeavor to combat such
a fire, and the fighters had all they
could do to escape with their lives
"Back-f firing had no effect whatever
and it had to be abandoned.
Caledonia Reservation Suffers
The Forestry Department force from
the State forestry reserves started to
fight the flames with the aid of volun-
teers, but could do very little. If the
department had the means to throw a
line of patrolmen along the mountains,
the FIRE, it is contended, would not have
had such a spread,
Some of the State forestry reserves
were burned over, but the greater part
of the timber burned belonged to indi.
viduals. Neither the Pine Grove nor
Mont Alto reservations suffered but
some of the Caledonia tract was devas.
