Be Careful With Fire in the
Forest

While here this week Ed Wood oil
Brewster said extensive forest fires were
raging all over the Colville Indian
reservation with very little probability
of their being extinguished unless a
rain came. Kittitas county also is
suffering from extensive forest fires.
So far Chelan county has been fortunate.
What fires we have had were small.
The danger is not past and those who
go into the forest should take greater
care than ever. Do not leave camp
fires without putting out every spark,
and above all do not drop lighted
matches. The grass and leaves on the
ground are as dry as finder and once
started afire there is no telling where
it would stop.

The Root Commission which re-
turned to this country during the past
week from Russia spent day in Sc
attic and the members addressed a
public meeting. Mr.. Root as we'll as
other members Of the Commission who
spoke gave their audience to under
stand that while Russia will eventually
come back" and fight for the cause
of the Allies, much cannot be expected
of them in the near future and it will
be up to the United States to take
Russia's place if the war against Ger
many is to be won. 1t was very
evident from the remarks of members
of the Commission that they regard
war as likely to last for a number Of
years and they all believe that Ger
many is in good fighting trim and
ready to 60 the limit in its effort to
conquer the world.

not see any bruises on the attendant,
or did he seem crippled. l asked for
a fan but none was to be had. asked
for paper to use in place Of fan and
one was finally brought. l asked for
glass OF water that I might moisten
Mr.. Els parched lips and mouth.
When I tried to put water on his lips
he acted as if he was afraid Of being
hurt. When I wet handkerchief and
moistened his lips and mouth he again
acted as if he feared some one was
going to hurt him. I helped him to
turn on his right side and found the
shin had peeled off and bed sores had
started. His bed was so hard I asked
the attendant to fold the blanket and
put under him. I did what I could to
make him comfortable. AS night came
on the Doctor had Mr.. E. moved into
another room where he had better
bed and was more comfortable. I nursed
him thru the night. Altho he had
only been there a short time he was
much reduced in flesh tho when he
was taken to the asylum he was in good
flesh. I stayed with him Monday and
Monday night trying to minister to his
dying needs. He breathed his last
Tuesday morning July 18th, at six
o'clock. All he said after came was
Eyes, know you are here'. He was
too weak to tell OF his treatment be-
fore I got to him. Everything he
brought with him had been taken from
him. He did not even have hand
kerchief. My opinion is that his ex-
element and violence, if there was any
grew out of having his belongings
taken from him. write this for the

ers before it evaporates, and % form
ing large clods and holes, thus permit
ting dry air to enter and dry the soil.
In droughty regions corn cultivation
is more essential and requires more
good judgment than in most other Sec
lions.
The primary object Of cultivation is
to prevent loss of moisture. Moisture
losses are caused by run off, eyapora-
ton and, most of all, weed growth
The one most important object of corn
cultivation is the keeping out Of weeds.
1t takes but little stirring of the soil
to kill weeds Immediately after they
terminate and before they have used
much soil moisture, but to destroy
weeds that are we'll rooted the soil
must be worked deeply and thorough
~. This requires much labor and can
not be accomplished without breaking
and destroying many corn roots. In
many sections or in seasons when the
seed terminates slowly it is advisable
to harrow once or twice or to cultivate
after planting before the corn comes up.
Aside from destroying weeds, timely
cultivation is beneficial in preventing
the loss of moisture by evaporation and
also In Fastening the warming of the
soil The loss of soil moisture by evap-
grafton continues much longer from n
comnact dn"cs sun a.v cs-.-... from
loose, dry surface, and the evaporation
tends to keep the soil cold.
In northern localities and at high al
titudes the conservation of heat Is
frequently as important as the conser-
walton of moisture. Luckily both heat
and moisture may be conserved by
good timely cultivation. Heat is vast
ed In evaporating or wasting soil mois-
ture. Making the surface loose and
dry saves both soil heat and soil mois-
ture.
Cultivating after heavy rains is a
good practice. To be most effective
the cultivating should be done as soon
as the surface is dry enough to work
well. If the soil is allowed to dry
until it breaks up cloddy much mois-
ture will be lost, good mulch cannot
be obtained and harm is more likely
to be done to the corn roots. AS long
as rapid evaporation is taking place
the surface will remain cold and the
growth of the corn will be slow.
The number OF civilizations neces-
sary and the best time for them de-
pend upon weather and soil conditions.
a mellow surface should be maintained.
In some seasons this may be effectual-
ly accomplished with one or two cult
vations; in other seasons from four to
six civilizations may be necessary.

Where Hell Was Made

Billy Sunday is credited with having
made the statement in one Of his New
York sermons:
II you could turn hell upside down
you would find stamped on the bottom
Made in Germany"
II Mr.. Sunday is excusable for telling
so plain truth, there is the other side
which may be stated to the effect that
if you could turn Germany upside down
you would find on the bottom Made
in HELP
Indeed, you hardly need look to the
bottom to find this, for it stands out
stamped strongly on whatever side OF
Germany you may look.

Some beneficial effects are Q prevent
