Big Fire Loss on National For
estS.
Forest Service, Ogden


Forest Service, Ogden Utah.
Forest fires burned over 962,-
900 acres of National forest
lands in 1917 and caused a loss
of $1,358,600 to the government
in timber, forage, and young
growth, according to figures
compiled by the forest service.
While the loss was larger than
for several years past, officials
say that, considering the unus-
ually dangerous conditions, it
was remarkably light. Protract-
ed drouth and periods of high
winds made the conditions, they
declare, virtually the same as in
1910, when NANNY persons were
burned to death and 25 million
dollars worth of timber on the
National Forests was destroyed.
In addition to the actual loss
in timber and forage, the fires
of last year entailed extra ex-
penditures by the government

against the arrival OF the government

arranged his forces 70 as to let each

Wally Selfridge was a reliable bust
ness subordinate. even though he had
slipped up In the matter Of the ap-
pointment Of Elliot. But when It came
to facing the physical hardships Of the
North he was u malingerer. The Ka.
matlah trip had to be taken because
his chief had ordered II, but the little
man shirked the journey In his heart
Just as he knew his soft muscles would
shrink from the aches Of the trail.
The part of the journey to b made
BY water was not % bad. Left to his
" Judgment, he would have gone to
st. Michael's by boat and chartered a
small steamer for the long trip along
the const through Boring sea. But this
would take time, and Macdonald did
not mean to let him waste a day. He
was to leave the river boat at the big
bend and pack across country TO Ka-
matlah. II would be q rough, heavy
trail. The mosquitoes would be q con-
tinual torment. The cooking would
be poor. And at the end Of the long
trek there awaited him monotonous
months In a wretched coal camp far
from all the comforts Of civilization.
No wonder he grumbled.
But though he grumhled at home and

to driving himself through discom-
fort to his end, and he expected a.

Wally took the boat at the time sched-

Gordon nodded agreement. Eyes,

"And he's good" added Sheba eager.

finds out splendid things he has DONE"
The young man smiled, but not AT all
superciliously. He liked the stanch
faith OF the girl in her friend, eve
though his Investigations had not led
him to accept goodness as the out
standing quality Of the Scotsman.
II don't know what we would do
without him." Diane went on. "Glve
