There has * been the least fi'JWfii
the Blue Ridge mountains this
seashn that lias ever been known.
They have forest rangers to keep
the fire down which can be con
troled to a certain extent. If .the
Are is kept out for several years
and then if it could get a sfcfrt
when the sap is up it would do
great damage. The red mala biirsil
the woods every year and there
was produced a great forest that
towered to the skies which took
the pale faces over a hundred yekis
to destroy. There now seems to
be a time to reserve and protect
our natural resources—time to call
a halt.
They will soon burn off the old
straw fields which will kill some of
the boll weevils and bean beetles
and have grass for the cow. Next
year we will be a dangerous time
to set out fire as it will be election
year and you can see several dark
clouds on the political horizon. It
would be a good idea ro elect .,yf*
fleers from every militia district to
catch the ticks and fleas and choke
them to death.
All nature will soon be puiUnjr

“Thefarmer is the man that leeds

glitters. While the band is play¬
ing let us not get up too mtfch en¬
thusiasm and over-crop ourselves,
for the shade trees, the flowers, the
meadows and the trout will invite
you to take a day off. All work

production this fall.
