Koohii Story 1 In the Old West, they used to light fires in the ground to make smoke signals.
Koohii Story 2 Should be easy. SMOKE brings to mind "Where there´s SMOKE, there´s FIRE". So, the FIRE in the OLD WEST can tell people we´re you´re at, so put out the FIRE with SOIL to keep the SMOKE to a minimum.
