" Forest fires on the national for ests of Oregon und Washington, during the past five years, have burned over an average of only 70,000 acres per year, according to a statement just issued by the for est service. Portland, Oregon. Thin Is one-fourth of one per cent of the gross national forest area in these two states. A growing spirit of cooperation on the part of the public, better or ganization, and quicker action aro responsible for tills excellent show ing, local forest officers state. At the same time they point out that even 70,000 burned over acres per year Is too high. From 60 to 70 of forest fires aro man caused, and campers-smokery head the list of man-causes. If these man-caused fires could be entirely eliminated, the total burned would be even smaller, it is said. Fourth In List Tho North Pacific district, com-i prising Oregon and Washington, ' stands fourth in the list of acreage burned on the national forests of the United States. . j Tho California district, afflicted by three bad fires during the per iod, suffered the heaviest loss, with an average of 213, 23 :t acres or 1.0X3 of its national forest area burned over each year. The East ern district comes next wit'i 0.8li7 and the Northern district, third with 0.421 . The worst year. during this per iod, 'In Oregon and Washington, was 1H20. when 157,715 acres were burned over. The heaviest con- i Colvllle national forest, 2,07(i i acres, and Mount Haker national ' toi-est, 47,7!1 aen-s. These aro all - in Washington. The most heavily burned national forest in Oregon that year was the Siskiyou national i forest, with 3,7!4 acres.
