314 - It took the firemen three weeks to get the forest fire under control. Now that all the trees had been burnt, there was danger that heavy rain would cause serious floods which would destroy the surrounding villages. To prevent this the forest authorities ordered grass-seed that was sprayed over the ground by planes for nearly a month. By the time it began to rain, the grass had taken root in the blackened soil.
