In the heat of summer the short grass dried on its roots. When the frosts of early fall came the tall, green grasses were killed.

One of the great dangers to the early settlers was from the prairie fire. To protect their homes and stacks from its ravages they broke a narrow strip of sod around them, then, at some distance inside of that, another narrow strip and burned the grass between.
