Portland, July 16. "Fire! Fire! Fire! "This is an ularm of fire. "Do you hear It? "Will you heed it? "If the fire has not come yet, it soon will. "You may prevent it. "You run scarcely stop it. "Although July has hardly begun, a dry spring followed by hot weather has resulted In terrific forest fires throughout the coast states. The tinder-like condition of the woods so early In the season threatens us with one of the worst fire years In history. With tho situation already extremely serious, nnd the usually dry months still to come, the Pacific northwest faces great danger of uncontrollable weeping fires, before which all ef fort will be powerless to prevent great destruction of resources if not of hu man lives. It Is a time to appeal to every citizen for vigilance to .avert disaster and distress to the commu nity." In these words the Western For estry & Conservation association be gins a statement Issura today as the result of reports upon the unusually critical forest fire situation . received from its subsidiary fire fighting or ganizations throughout the northwest ern states. All authorities agree that tho unusually early arrival of dan gerous conditions warrants very grave apprehension. Great de struction has already resulted in Mon tana, Idaho and California. In Ore gon and Washington many fires have broken out and although most have been successfully handled, every day is increasing the danger of conditions which prevent control. The association calls attention to tho fact that very destructive forest fires come in cycles, due to abnormal years. While in ordinary seasons cnuntless fires smoulder without se rious effect and even the more Im portant ones can usually be checked ! by sufficient effort, every few years comes a combination of protracted dry weather and wind during which any fire once started becomes almost instantaneously beyond Influence f human endeavor. Such fires burn furiously until checked by rain or lack of fuel and sweep vast areas with great rapidity. The last of these "fire years" was 1902, when many lives, besides resources worth nearly SO 000,000, were destroyed in Ore gon and Washington in a day or two. It la a return of such a catastrophe which is feared if heavy rain does not soon relieve the early dryness of 1910. In the meanwhile the association appeals to every traveler and resident In forest regions to exercise the great est precaution with fire and to all timber owners to maintain vigilant pa trol. In some states the governor has legal power to forbid hunting, fish ing and camping during period great fire danger, but In the north west there Is no insurance but the care exerclsea by the Individual.
