A number of prairie fires are re-
ported by nearby exchanges during
the last few weeks, and much ad-
vice is handed out by the boys in
the way Of warnings against re-
currence of such disasters. The
buffalo grass on the prairies right
now is easily set afire and If a wind
gets behind 1t much damage can be
done in a few minutes. Parties
travelling through the country at this
time should be very cautious about
throwing cigaret or cigar stubs, OIL
dumping the burning contents of 9
pipe beside the road. With the
heavy mat of grass and weeds over
the country it would be easy to start
a confiagration that would burn over
an immense territory before sub
dued.
