TO CHECK FOREST FIRES
Preventive Patrol System Organized in Western Washington.
SEATTLE, Wash., May 1. (To the Ed
itorsThe earnest attention of the
timber-land owners of Western Washing
ton, and the public at large, Is Invited to
the object and scope of the work con
templated by this association, the pro
tection of the forests. of Western Wash
ington from destruction by fire.
During eight or nine months of each
year, the rainfall In this region Is so
abundant that to start a damaging fire
in the midst of the forest would be an
Impossibility; but during the Summer
months, and even well into September,
there is no rain, and from a condition
of absolute safety there is a positive one
of great hazard an abnormal period of
extreme dryness, during which time the
magnificent forest of Western Washing
ton is one vast tinder box. A match
calessly dropped by a hunter, a camp
fire left to smoulder, a spark from a loco
motive or a logging engine, or a clearing
fire carelessly handled by a settler may
start a forest fire that soon becomes un
controllable. In September, 1902, after, a Summer of
extreme dryness, such a conflagration
was started in Clark County, Wash.,
from a settler's fire, and within 24 hours
it had burned over an area equal to 60
square miles; burning to death many
pe6ple and much miscellaneous property,
besides burning and killing at least 2,
000,000,000 feet of as fine timber as there
is in the State of Washington.
There Is absolutely no insurance to pro
tect the owner or the community against
a disaster of this kind. The Federal
authorities are realizing the importance
of protecting the forest reserves of the
Government and are patrolling the same.
The State of Washington, by its legisla
tion, has enacted wise and suitable laws
restricting and governing the privilege of
starting fires during the dry season;
but neither the Federal nor the state
regulation Is able to take care of the
forest, and it is very apparent that the
owners of the timber will hereafter have
to give more attention to the protection
of their property.
It was generally conceded that how
ever great the risk from fire has been in
the past, that it will continue to be
greater year after year as the country
is opened up by railroads, and clearings
are made by settlers, and as the timber
is cut by the logger. It Is a fact which
cannot be gainsaid that fire follows the
railroad, the settler and the logger.
Fully realizing this, the members of this
association are united together for the
purpose of making a business of pro
tecting their property. It Is contemplated

that the entire western part of Washing

in each district there will be a chief, and
under him will be patrolmen, whose busi

timber during the dry season, cautioning
the hunter, fisherman, camper, settler and
this kind is done in the most thorough
manner, that the loss from forest fires,
both to the timber-land owner and to the
community at large, will be Incalculable.

logger to be careful about fires; sup- i rill.& Ring Lumber Company, F. Jerome,
pressing small fires, and keeping the pub
lic mind alert all the while as to the
grave hazard there is from a general
conflagration.
It is hoped in time to make this organ
ization one of trained men who will know
every trail, and every road in the coun
try; and who will know how to fight fires
and meet the situation promptly whenever
the risk is Imminent. This association
has been formed under the laws of the
State of Washington and proposes to, work
in harmony with both the Federal and
state authorities in the task of protect
ing the forests of the state from fires.
It is contemplated that an assessment
of one cent an acre on all the timber
lands of the state will raise a fund suf
ficient to thoroughly patrol the entire
timber area of Western Washington; and
it is the intention to invite every timber
land owner, whether he be a resident or
non-resident, to Join the association and
make his contribution and get the benefit
of this patrol. The work should be well
organized and under way not later tharH
June 1, next. At present. Western Wash
ington is drier than it has been for years,
and if this condition - continues we will
probably have a most hazardous Summer
ahead of us, ' the most hazardous since
1902. .
The object of this letter is to prepare
people's minds for the consideration of
this subject, and we hope soon to send
out a copy of our organization papers and
our by-laws, and a more detailed plan of
the work which is proposed. Unless the
.project is entered upon promptly by all
the timber-land owners in the state, it
cannot be made the success that is hoped
will be the result of a careful, alert and
vigorous organization.
The incorporators represent some of the
largest interests in Western Washington,
and every other large interest that has
been approached has signified Its hearty
approval and support of this movement.

JOSEPHINE JOUNTY FRUIT
Damage by Frost Night of April 24
Reported to Be Slight.
GRANTS PASS. Or., April 30. That water
In water pipes became frozen and that
there was a cold spell so severe as to
freeze vegetation and to kill 25 per cent
of the fruit in Josephine County, as stated
by The Oregonian's correspondent in yester
day's issue. Is a statement not warranted
by the facts, and has done a great Injustice
to the fruit industry of this section of Rogue
River Valley.
There was an unusual heavy frost on the
night of April 24, but that water In water
pipes became frozen and a general killing
of fruit ensued. Is not so. In many of the
districts fruit was not injured &t all by
frost, and the apple crop of the county will
be up to the average. In a few of the apple
orchards on the lowlands the trees were
thinned of fruit, but enough left to be all
that the trees can ripen perfectly. Of
course this thlnninr by frost Is not done
in a manner that will insure the hlsh-grade
fruit had from hand -thinning, as has to
be done In ordinary seasons to prevent the
trees from being overloaded. On the higher
altitudes and in the thermal belt about the
hills, not even the strawberries were injured
by frost. The only damage was on the
lowlands, where the soil vfcas wet and -cold,
and where there was no air drainage or
currents to move the cold air that settled
down from the higher levels. In these
places, cherries, early peaches, pears, apples
and berries were more or less injured. Some
fruit entirely killed, while others escaped
with little injury.
I havo Interviewed manv fruitgrowers and
have examined a number of orchards, and
the information I am able to get to date
is that the apple crop may be cut down a
per cent but may not be that much, for
owing to this being a late Spring many of
the trees were not in blossom wlcn the
frost came. As most of the bearing pear
orchards are on the very low lands, the
yield of pears is probably cut 50 per cent,
but it will take another week to even prove
that, because many of the pears do not yet
show that they were even chilled and are
not turned black at the core as they do
when frozen. The peach orchards and the
berry patches are also mostly on the low
lands, so they, too, will probably not yield
above DO per cent. The cherries are prac
tically gone, but as there Is very little of
this fruit grown here, its loss is of no conse
quence. The pioneers of Rogue River Valley all
settled along the streams and planted their
orchard on the lowest. dampest land they
bad, and this is why such a large per cent
of the fruit of this valley was In the frozen
zone and got killed. But this happens
years apart, sometimes there being no frost
for 10 or more years.
As Rogue River Valley has no halls, nor
heavy winds and rain storms to wash off
the polen or beat off the fruit, no sleets and
heavy, wet snows to break down the fruit
trees, and not one-tenth of the pests thnt
make life a burden and the fruit profits
small to the orchardlsts of the Eastern
Btates the fruitgrowers of Rogue River Val
ley can stand a little frost once In a while,
or otherwise they would all become million
aires within a few years. With their Bart
lett pears averaging hlph prices on cars at
the shipping point here and some of the
Cornice pears selling f. o. b. the car. New
York at pTlces not realized by pears from
any other district in the United States, and
their Newtown apples leading on high
prlc for the last nvc years in the London
market there is profit in Rogue River or
chards even should frosts be a regular mis
hap, as Is the case in all thejfrult districts
of the East. CHARLES MESERVE,
