IS ESTABLISHED
The Department or Agriculture
und other agencies concerned with
the protection of federal, atnto und
private forests from fire are keep
ing as watchful an eye on the
weather these days as tho nuvigu
tors of ships at sea. .
, Increasing realization of 'tho im
portant role the weather plays in
the forest fire hazard has led the
weather bureau of the United
States department of agriculture
to establish a systematic forest
fire-weather warning service in
several sections of the country,
and regular forecasts are being
sent out to apprise foresters and .
forest owners of dangerous fire j
weather so that they may shut)
down logging operations and slash I
burning, and mobilize fire-fighting
units with the least possible delay.
In the Pacific .coast region,
where some of the most valuable!
forests in the United States are j
situated, the fire-weather warning i
work has been under way for some
time. Fire-weather forecasts are is-1
sued twice daily by the weather
bureau and are disseminated by
telegraph to Important key points,
by radio and by nbwspapers. The
radio broadcasting of these fore
casts is one of the most recent de
velopments, and fire-weather bul
letins now aro being sent out from
16 Pacific coast and northwestern
stations.
The worst fires In Washington
and Oregon occur' in connection
with the dreaded east win 1. "When
these winds are preceded by a
period of- warm drv weather rh-es
I start easily.
ine tire-weather warning t-ervlco
now is in operation in seven districts:-
California, with headquar
ters at San Francisco; Oregon,
with headquarters at Portland ;
Washington, with headquarters . at
Seattle; Montana and northern
Idaho, with headquarters at Spo
kane; southern Idaho, with head
quarters at Boise; Minnesota, Wis
consin and Michigan, with head
quurtors at Duluth; New York and
New England . with headquarters
at Boston. Within tho districts,
subcenters are maintained, such as
Albany for the Adirondack region
of Now York, New Haven for Con
necticut, etc. A partial service also
is in operation for the protection
of the Appalachian forest region
in the South Atlantic states. ,
At the various substations weath
er bureau and forest officers are
cooperating in studying and ob
serving fire-weather conditions.
Sevoral of the substations are. mak
ing studies of conditions in the up
per air. Relative humidity, a term
used to represent the relative
amount of moisture In the atmos
phore, nlso is , closely watched.
When the relative humidity is
high, materials absorb moisture
from the air, and when it is low tho
air absorbs moisture from all ma
terials. Extreme forest fire hazards
aro always the result of low hu
midity. The ? importance of this
ractor is indicated by: the fact
that some insurance companies are
now granting reduced rates on
tlmberlnnd In the Pacific north
west when the -'owner . agrees to (
suspend all logging operations for !
any period during which the rela-!
tlve humidity is below 30 per cent. !
