FIRE WARNING.

Forest Rangers are calling atten-
ton to the approach of the season
when the danger from forest fire
is enhanced by forests. Fire Rang
er Mcintosh of Hibbing has given
out the following:
81 beg to call your attention to
the fact that our fall frosts will
soon be here and kill the abundant
vegetation along our highways, for
ests and fields and will Increase the
Forest Fire hazard. Settlers hav-
ing burning to do should do so
now and not figure on burning the
latter part of August, September
or October.
"You will recall the fact that the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. fire, the Sooner
Baudette fire, the Virginia and
Chisholm fires and the Cloquet-
Moose Lake fires all occurred in
the fall. So you can readily see
that we are approaching the time
OF the year when we must use all
possible safeguards against fires.
1T is just possible that we will
not be issuing any burning permits
during the last week or ten DAYS
of August and during the months
of September and October, unless it
is right after a local rain and then
only for one day at a time. | am
calling your attention to this at
this time so that your neighbors
will burn when the time is most
favorable and not wait until the
bad dangerous season, thus avoiding
the argument that they are re-
strained from clearing their land.
II trust that you will take this
matter up with the people in your
township and let us all try and get
thru this fall without fire."

charge for the National Dairy Elk

"It has never cost more than
fifty cents to get into the Exposi-
ton. During recent years." said
Col. w. E. Skinner, General Man
ager of the National Dairy Asso-
citation, "our price has always been
low enough to permit every farmer,
every farmers wife and every
farmers child to attend without
feeling that city prices We're be-
ing charged"
Admission tickets for children
will be twenty-five cents and will
be sold on the grounds, according
to Col. Skinner. Arrangements for
advance sale of tickets will be made
through county agents and county
banks. Visitors will not be urged
to buy more tickets either for
adults or children than thew re-
quire for the length of time thew
will be attending the Exposition.
Tickets will not be sold for less
money anywhere.

non-profitmaking organization. COM

ton, in spending $36,00O,0O0 for
safety, sanitation, and welfare in
its plants during the last eight
years (where in the past fourteen
years 29,550 men have been saved
from death or serious injury, has
found it one of the best invest
ments it ever made from the
economic as we'll as the humani-
tartan standpoint. The railroads
of the country, and hundreds of
other companies in practically every
line of industry, in inaugurating
organized safety work have secured
similar results. Every dollar in
diligently invested in accident pre-
vention pays dividends.
1t is not only the great corpora
tions like the steel corporation,
which employ thousands of men
and which can afford to spend
millions for safety, that do effect
i've work and save money in pre-
venting accidents. Hundreds of the
companies among the members of
the National Safety Council which
are doing the most effective safety
work are small plants employing a
few hundred men, and in many
cases less than one hundred men.
