The dry conditions in western Texas caused several large fires that killed thousands of cattle and caused tremendous devastation to ranches across the area. The story has a good discussion of the weather that helped spread the fires and a sad story about a rancher who lost his life in the conflagration. The story shows how hard farmers work to take care of their farms, animals and families on a daily basis.
