The number of fires suppress sed on National Forest lands during the calendar year 1915 was 6,324, as against 7,O18 in 1914. The average loss per fire was $60.41. Forty four per cent of the fires were confined to areas of less than one-quar- ter of an acre.

method of increasing the water supply of the lake, and the cost of raising the dam cannot we'll be determined until a sur vey can be made, and that must wait on the winter weather. However, other very necessary things can and ought to be done at once. The first of these is the organization of a club or association or combina- ton of clubs and associations, the purpose of promoting the development of Williams summer resort.

COLEMAN LAKE DAM

Continued from First Page) clear of vegetation. This is probably due, in the first place, to the fact that this part of the lake has existed only since the building of the dam; and in the second, to the fact that it is first to go dry when the lake gets low. Its depth at no time ex-.i ceeds two feet. Add four feet to this and you have a good swimming depth. With the bottom kept clear, this would make good place for bathing. It has the advantage, too, of being so located that it gets the direct rays of the sun during practically the entire day, a point which will be appreciat- ed by those who have tried bathing in this cool climate.
 An earth dam four feet high CT than the one in use at pres ent, would serve to impound the necessary amount of water, and the advantages and attrac- tions outlined above would cer- tainly result were the water so impounded, but the necessary supply of water raises a prob lem not yet satisfactorily solv- ed. Cowboys and cattlemen who have been consulted are of the opinion that there is no overflow from the lake at all, unless it be in extremely wet winters. This being the case, it is plainly evident that wa ter would need to be divert ed to the lake in order to fill it to capacity, in case the larger dam were constructed. In or der to determine the best way in which to get additional wa ter and what it would cost, a water survey should be made as soon as the spring opens suf- ficiently to make the lake and the immediately surrounding country accessible. This sur vey need entail no expense, as all necessary services including that of a competent civil engi- neer have been volunteered.
 It has been suggested that a very large supply of additional water might be secured at small cost, from the mountain to the right of the lake. This mountain borders .on the lake to the north and east, and yet it's slopes are so inclined that practically none of the water from it reaches the lake. A ditch might be run about it in such a way as to turn a large portion of the flow from it's deep collection of snow, into the lake.
