HOW OICLEWS IflRESTS " ARE PROTECTED FROM FIRE Masters and McLain I General Contractor's Buildin Material and Beaver Hill Coal Office: Bropdway & Queen St Phones 2011 -826 - ----''---- THOMASON & HANSON -DEALERS IN- 'Hay Grain and Feed' "Froo Dollvery Piono 1751 Nothing could better call the at tention of thinking people to tho necessity for the preservation of our natural resources than tho great for est fires which have boon so widely distributed throughly tho country and have played such havoc this summer. It Is doubtful if tho losses for tho year 1908 will over be fully known, but a conservative estimato by Dr. V. J. McGeo,. erosion export, United States Department of Agricul ture, places the aggregate loss In all parts of tho country during these months of conflagration at $1,000, 000 a day. In nearly overy Instance, probably In overy instance, these devastating fires might have been prevented if tho various states had provided an adequate number of men to patrol tho woods and arrest all such fires In their lncipiency, and if lumbermen and othor users of tho forest wero careful to dispose of brush after log ging so as to provent tho spread of fires. Uncle Sam has had a lot of work to do on his National Forests In tho flre-flghtlng lino this year, but his work has shown good results. ExcIubIvo of tho salaries of forest officers, tho work of putting down fires on the National Forests for tho year has cost tho government $30,- 000. This summor protecting ap proximately 1G8,000,000 acres. Tho value of tho timber destroyed will not bo known until tho fire reports are made at tho ond of tho year, though it is estimated that it will bo larger than last year. But it will bo insignificant when compared with tho appalling 11 ro losses outsfdo of tho National Forests on unprotected areas, or with tho destruction which would have como to tho timber In tho Nadnal Forests had they not been protected. Theso results have como through tho increased eflicioncy of fire-patrol and mothods of fighting flro and through tho cooperation of settlers and users of forests who understand that tho forosts are their property and that a loss from flro is a porsonal ono. By posting flro notices' and giv ing advico, tho government has so- cured cooperation from tho outside, which may bo said to bo as import ant an agency In reducing tho loss from forest fires as Is tho perfection of machinery for fighting theso fires. After timber is cut, tho regula tions requlro brush to be compactly piled at a safe distance from living trees. Sometimes this brush Is burn ed under direction of a forest offi cer; but oven if it is allowed to stand, no flro that starts finds fuel by which it can spread. Tho National' Forests aro constant ly patrolled by a picked force of rangers and guards. Tho present summer force of such rangors and guards, whoso main duty Is flro pa trol, Is 1,351 men; tho average area that each Is required to protect is 121, GOG acres. It is fully understood thnt this area is at points whore there is tho greatest danger of flro and whoro they can bo easily reach ed by trail. Fiold glasses aro also furnished, since their use in discov ering small fires at a considerable distance has proved very helpful. Upon tho basis of the Forest Ser vice experience on tho National For ests on which tho total administra tion per ncre, Including flro patrol, amounts to only ono cent, tho wholo forest area of tho United States could bo protected from fire at a total cost of less than $3,000,000. This would savo an annual loss of $20,- 000,000 for timber alono, to say nothing of tho enormous loss of life, tho loss to now treo growth, tho loss of soil fertility, tho damage to river courses and adjacent farm country, and tho depreciation in forest wealth and land values.
