The money spent on keeping this ferry running should go into building a substantial bridge. Property owners on Harstine who pay taxes as high as those on the mainland, and higher in some cases, should have the right of ac- cess to the property on which they pay taxes.

State Land Commissioner Bert Cole said 388 fires lvtve bm'ned 754 acres of stale-protected land this year, compared with 166 fires and 393 acres nt this time in 1964. In Mason County, :11 fires have burned 20.5 acres this year while last year at this time 12 fires had bm~ed 3.7 acres. In other words, the acres burned this year are 5~,.~ times that burned during the same amount of time last year. OVER THE three-day weekend, Mason County fared well. A cause for a fire reported at. the city dump, July 6, ha~u been is-covered by the Department of Natural Resources. Apparently children playing at the dump caught a garter snake and started a fire when burning its head! Mothers please take note! The Forest Service at Hoodsport reported a smoker's fire just above Cushman I~alls, July 4. Luckily, Ivan Fawver of Kent saw the fire while fishing and immediately re- ~orted it. A spot approximately 5 feet in diameter was burned. The fact• that we have fewer acres burned in our county com- pared to that burned in our neigh- boring counlies is no accident. Of prime importance in this fire pre- vention is Ute Department of Nat- ural Resources, which is headed by Frances Wrigllt, District Ad- ministrator. A redent "visit with Mr. Wright proved to be most informative. He explained to me that the De- partment is composed of eight dif- ferent divisions, tim most import- ant of which is fire protection of all state-owned and privately- owned land in the Shelton district [including the south end of Jeffer- son County and excluding the Ta- huya area. (National Forests. in our county are supm-¢ised by the Forest Service). The Department is aiming for a reduction in smok- er's fires and the elimination of careless debris burning for the year of 1965. In the last 20 years, 21 percent of our total fires have been attributed to smoker's fires, i These fires have amounted to eight percent of oar acreage loss, Debris burning has cost us 29 percent acreage loss. Strict enforcement of burning laws will be one of the factors in eliminating fires caused by debris burning.
