Its dry stems are ready to suck fire out of burning cigarettes, coax innocent camp fires into the brush or snatch flame from a discarded match.

Cheat grass runs a pickup and delivery service for fugitive fires. It can take fire from a down-towcigarette and deliver it to the last tree up the mountain. Firemen of Salt Lake county y Tec-toru- made 1,000 runs after cheat grass fires in 1948. If Utah is to be kept gren, dry cheat grass and fire must be kept apart.
