Menace Of forest Fires.

With the many issues of the day
and numerous patriotic duties oc-
cupying our minds, we must not
allow ourselves to forget the ne
cessity for precaution against for
est fires. This is always of great
Importance to the community
and the country as a whole, but
at this time its importance cam
not be emphasized too strongly.
Timber, sheep and cattle range,
millions of dollars worth of stock,
all needed for the successful pros
ecution of the war are imperiled
by forest fires, aside from the
great loss due to the necessity of
drawing labor to combat these
fires from industries of vital i'm
portance. It is therefore the pa
triotic duty of every loyal citizen
to prevent in every way this great
cause of loss to the nation. Be
careful, report every fire discover
ed to the nearest Forest Ranger
if you cannot control it yourself,
and tell your neighbor to do the
same.

badly more money is still being put

too soft, though small quantity Of
limestone Is often mixed with hard

most favored. The crushed rock
should be laid In clean condition,
SO that the interstices will not be
filled up. by dirt that will wash
down later. The rock should pack
together into the smallest possible
space.
The standard construction of ma
cadam road requires four to eight
inches Of coarse rock for the base,
and two to four inches smaller sur
facing rock. The rolling must be
