FIRE SEASON.

The State Forestry Department
calls attention to the fact that we dc
not want to lose sight of the fire
danger because Of the rain that has
fallen so far this month. The rain
helps "a lot but with the leaves
falling as they are now and the
high winds of this period with the
indian Summer sun thrown in. the
ground will soon dry up and the
danger be as acute as ever.
The hunting season will soon oper
next month and then many so called
sportsmen will enter the woods and
due to carelessness cause many fires
Some of the oldtimers are often
careless also. and drop a match or
cigarette, or leave fire burning
It is all right to keep the fires
small by getting to them quickly but
Its still better to be ahead of the
game and Prevent Them Altogether,

JUNIOR RED CROSS AIDS
PEACE BY BIG GROWTH.
Gains $4,000 Members in Year
in Schools Throughout
United States.

A new high level in peace time
membership of the American Junior
Red Cross is recorded for 1925z-its
ranks numbering 5,73S,64S school girls
\and boys-a gain Of $4,000.
This unique and powerful children's
organization started as a war meas
ure, but today Is one of the greatest
influences for peace ever known. An
increasing participation In local pro-
grams of service has featured theiS
years growth. It is indicated that N
q greater degree than ever pupils i!
the schools are performing individ-'
ual and collective acts of service in a
true Red Cross spirit.
The success of the junior swimming
program, launched last year through
cooperation Of the Life-Saving Serv-
Ice Of the Red Cross, has led to de-
termination to make It regular fea-
ture of both these branches.
An outstanding feature OF the
Juniors work this year was the par
ticipation for the first time of Junior
Red Cross worker in the disaster re-
lief operations following the tornado
in Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana
Schools in many more fortunate local
tiles displayed a keen interest in
) sending toys and books for the use,
Of the children in the disaster area.
The Junior Red Cross porgram has
Hourished not alone in settled COM
munities, but has been extended to
Indian schools. and to native Alaskan
schools where many Eskimo children
undertook Junior work. In addition.
the international correspondence be-
tween schools is proving more and
more popular. American schools are
now corresponding with those In thir-
ty-four countries.

HUNTERS, SAVE THE

With the autumn hunting season
getting under way in the Northeast
and in the South, the Forest Ser
vice, United States Department OF
Agriculture, issues an appeal to all
sportsmen to guard against forest
fires.
Ordinarily, say forestry officials,
a great number of devastating forest
fires are caused each fall by hunters.
\ These fires not only destroy valuable
timber but also the better forms OF
game animals, and thereby defeat
the plans of the hunters themselves.
Those whose duty it is to guard
forest lands from fire are usually
apprehensive of the fall hunting
season. Fro M bitter experience
these men have learned that hun
tiers are frequently careless with
matches, smoking tobacco, and camp
fires. A great many sportsmen's
associations have for years taken
measures to prevent this carelessness
by their members. Other clubs and
organizations are following suit.
In fact, the time is rapidly ap-
preaching when hunters everywhere
will seek the woods with full
knowledge Of forest fire conditions,
and these hunters will beOof in
valuable assistance in protecting the
country's forests rather than being
the agencies through which so many
fires are started.
The Federal Government employs
its rangers, guards and lookouts. tc
protect the National Forests. Most
States likewise have fire wardens
and rangers with police powers.
Hunters should take warning and
be the first to protect the woods
They should erase from the records
any reference to forest fires traceable
to hunters.
The citizens of no community
want its beautiful autumn landscape
blotted out with smoke from burn
ing woodlands.

National Grange was the Original
sponsor of laws to protect cheese
manufacturers and dairy farmers by
prohibiting the manufacture of fillea

A big Grange gathering at sno-
homish in the State of Washington,
was recently delighted by the
receipt of personal message from
Governor Hartley, who paid high
tribute to the Grange and outlined
his faith in the farmers to help
solve many of the vital problems of
the day. In the message Governor
Hartley said: We are governed al
most to bankruptcy. The greatest
favor the state can bestow on the
farmer is to get off his back and
leave him free to go about his
business, unhampered by an army of
regulators, Investigators, inspectors,
advisors and dictators."
