Peat Fires a Very
Serious Forest Menace
Warning Issued to Refrain From
All Starting of Fires During
Danger Period

Although the forest fire situation
in the central and northeastern
parts of the state has been slight
ly relieved owing to light rains, in
northwestern Minnesota the menace
from a large number of peat fires
is exceedingly grave. This area is
exceptionally dry and presents
real hazard to forests lying within
the drained districts.
Grover Comet, directors of the
Division of Forestry and Fire Pre-
vention, State Department Of Con-
servation, issues warning that no
fires should be started at this time
which is the most dangerous season
of the year. Drouth conditions or
seasons drier than normal over a
period of years since 1922 with the
exception of 1928 has created one
of the most dangerous hazards in
forest fires in the state for a long
time, according to Mr.. Comet who
is personally supervising the fire
fighting in the affected areas.

normally carry water nave mOStly

being put under control. Splendid
work in fire fighting has been done
by men from emergency conserva-
ton camps during the past three
weeks. In one instance all Of the
available men from three Of these
camps were working on one fire.
Fires burning in peat lands and
boys have reached the stage where
control can no longer be had by the
Forestry division and everyone is
urged not to do any more burning

Of any nature at this time"

Whereas, at other times the

this Club is informed, been de-

not have any exact information
as to the supply Of fish in Sank

Whereas, this Club believes
that from the economic stand
point of the needy of the COM
munity, with few exceptions,
the cost of a fish house and
fishing license, if invested in
pork or other meat purchased
direct from the farmer and
dressed by those who have time
to fish, will procure a greater
and cheaper food supply than
will fish, and the common OBJ
servation is that those who do
winter fishing are financially
able to drive automobiles to the
place where fishing is carried
on, and
Whereas, this Club believes
that in the past little considera-
ton has been given to its cpin-
ions and recommendations, even
though the same has been based
on the best available facts with
true conservation in mind, and
further believes that matters
such as the opening and closing
of Sank Lake to fishing have
not been determined from a
true conservation standpoint,
Now therefore, be it resolv-
ed that this Club make no
recommendation and expression
of opinion as to the ADVISABLE
ity or inadvisability of open
ing Sank Lake to any kind of
winter fishing, and
Further, that the Commits
sioner of Game and. Fish and
others in authority be requested
to determine such matters from
the purely conservation stand
point on the high plane and
with the fearless attitude which
the public of this community
has been led to believe were
used in such matters, and
Further, that the said Com
missioner is hereby requested,
after such matters have been
determined, to report to this
Club the facts and the source

action which he takes is based,

Be it further resolved that
the said Commissioner is here

Club a statement Of the facts
and the sources of the facts up

of said lake to winter fishing

Be 1t further resolved that

Babies Need Attention In
Summer, Doctor Declares

In this climate, babies need es-
pecially careful attention in summer.
according to DR.. v. L. Elliott, county
health officer. The we'll known SUM
mer complaint" usually comes late in
summer and is a serious illness.
Deaths are less common than in the
past, but are still sufficient to make
this illness one of the chief causes of
death.
Diarrhea, or summer complaint, can
usually be prevented by observing GER
tain rules (1) If the baby is still
nursing at the breast do not wean him
until cold weather comes. Mothers
milk is the best and safest food for
young baby. ~ If the baby is
fed from the bottle, be sure to use
only a clean safe milk supply. If
good safe milk is not available, it is
better to use evaporated milk. Fol-
low the doctors orders in preparing
and boiling the milk, and feed the
baby only at the regular time. The
bottles and nipples should be boiled
every day. (3) Offer the baby cooled
boiled water frequently, but do not
sweeten it with sugar. (4) On hot
days put very little clothing on, but
have an extra garment or cover ready
in case it turns cold. Keep him in a
cool room. Upstairs rooms are
usually much warmer than down
stairs. 90 Keep flies away, especially
at meal time as flies often carry
germs which cause diarrhea. Keep
a netting or screen over his crib. Be
sure that no flies can get into your
toilet ,as this is the place where they
pick up dangerous germs.
Call your doctor Immediately if
your baby develops loose bowels, par
ticularly if accompanied by fever and
vomiting. 1t is usually easy to cure
diarrhea in the beginning, but you
should never try to do this without
a doctors advice. While waiting for
the doctor, stop all food and give
nothing but boiled water. Do not give
a purgative.

LUMBER MILLS BUSY
AS PRICES MOUNT
Payrolls Increase and Produc-
ton Shows Gain.

New Orleans.-Long faces in the
southern pine lumber industry, which
ranks second to King Cotton as the
big shot of Dixie pay rolls, are bright
ening.
Employment has increased, prices
have gone up. and the piles Of lumber
weathering in the mill yards have d.
minished.
After the stock market crash the
industry. under urgings from the
White House not to create unemploy-
ment by reducing manufacturing out
put, and assured that prosperity was
just around the corner, carried on.
During 1881 the price of lumber, un-
der the weight of piled up, unsold, un-
wanted lumber in mill yards, slumped
rapidly. Operators offered their wares
at lower and lower prices in an effort
to move the product and raise cash to
meet pay rolls, bank obligations and
taxes
In January, 1888, the Southern Pine
association reported that for one week
17,974,0O0 feet of lumber were manu-
featured but only 100000 feet
shipped. Unified orders totaled only
16,O13.OOO feet.
Then the nation went of the gold
standard and by May q the file Of
untitled orders had risen to 46,O56, 600
feet, clear gain Of 30,O43,0OO feet, or
almost twice the shipments of the first
week of the year.
Shipments for the year to date. 512,-
$4,000 feet, have surpassed produc-
ton by 71,O9.OOO feet. reducing piled
up stocks by that amount.
The stock decrease, combined with
the increase In untitled orders, shows
a total gain in business of over 1O0,-
100000 feet.
During the week of May 81, the
mills reported they shipped 1854 600
feet, or more than the totals Of the
first two weeks Of the year. During
that same week, production was 26,-
$4,000 feet, an increase which
brought more employment and bigger
pay rolls to be spent with the mer-
chants.

Corn Crop Is Shown
Higher Than Last Year

Indicated production of corn, wheat
apples and pears are higher on Aug.
ust l than on July 1, according to
Richard c. Ross, agricultural stalls
tician for the Maryland Crop Report
ing Service. Prospects for other field
and fruit crops either remained un-
changed during the month, or de-
clined. July weather was not very
favorable for crops.
The corn crop, forecast at 18,O4S,OOO
is indicated to be about 10
per cent larger than last year. While
many fields were planted late and have
been growing slowly, the early plant
ed fields generally are in excellent con-
dition and should yield well. Based on
harvest returns, the wheat crop is
now estimated at 6,518,000 bushels.
This production is about a third larg-
er than the short crop grown last year
but is nearly a third smaller than the
average of production during the
years 1926 to 1880.
Apple prospects improved during
July and a crop of $500, 900 bushels
is in prospect now. The commercial
crop probably will be slightly larger
than last year but much lower than
average. The peach crop is forecast
ia 100000 bushels, a comparatively
short crop, but is reported to be clean
and of good quality.
