Free Parking Free Gift Wrap 426-3283 Fifth & Franklin i htni -caused fo fi increase For those who believe that lightning never strikes in the same spot, there are a lot of spots now in Washington that would be considered safe. Almost 500 lightning-caused forest and range fires have been reported for the period ending July 15, 1975. This compares with 315 lightning fires for the entire 1974 season. "Since Keep Washington Green was formed in 1940, the average number of lightning fires has been 477 per year," reports from 1 1 Ed Loners, director. "With 497 lightning fires reported, we have far exceeded that average already and we're not even halfway through the '75 fire season." More disturbing than the increase in lightning fires is the number of man-caused fires. There have been 407 man-caused fires this season as compared with 334 during the same period last year. These fires were preventable. "This shows that while we've I enjoyed the cooperation of most of the residents and visitors of Washington, we still have a way to go yet," Loners said. He advised that we must think forest and range fire prevention. Whether it's a campfire, debris burning or smoking; in all uses of fire - practice safety. "We can't keep lightning from starting fires, but we can try to keep man-caused fires out of our forests and off our range lands," concluded Loners. / It pays to save at George's i We carry our own contracts on approved credit • 28 years Mason County appliance headquarters We have our own service department • Same day free delivery and normal installation Nationally recognized quality brands • Where your friendship is important Thursday.
