Why are small forest fires used to stop spred of large forest fires?

When the small fires burn out (long before the main fire gets to them) they leave an area which the main fire cannot cross because the area has already been burned so there is nothing for the main fire to burn there, and so it helps to stop the spread over the main fire from that point on.
