It would dominate the minds of men, women and children. All else would be forgotten in preparation' for This Is the parallel drawn by IS. t. Allen, forester for the Western Forestry &' Conservation association, .In a book " he has Just Issued on "Practical Pores try in the- Pacific Northwest," and In wMch paTtlcular stress is laid upon the danger of forest" fires and the destruc tion wrought by the flames from time to time. Demands Quick Action. "Forest fire destruction is u danger in every way as real and immediate as .riot or Invasion," the writer goes on to exnlatn in ' this connection, "equally measurable In losses to us today and more far-reaching In effect upon future prosperity. Although less sensational, it demands no less prompt action." Continuing, the writer says that the foregoing facts prove "that our present forest policy is unprofitable to the state and the citlsens." In suggesting a rem edy he sets forth that forest fires are almost always unnecessary, that they can be prevented by care and caution, that the public, including lumbermen and loggers, should become Impressed with the danger of carelessness in deal ing with fire where it may. endanger standing timber. Forest fires, he points out, "usually result from a neglect of consideration for Injury and distress to others which is not shown by the Amer ican people In any other connection. -Menaoe to Industry. "The traveler or resident in the for est regions simply falls to realise that his .own welfare and that of countless others requires the same precaution not to, let fire escape, rtd the same activ ity in extinguishing fires, he discovers, ' that are accorded as a matter of course 4n, cities and towns." .In reality, he contends, they are more important. In the city Insurance and capital come to the rescue, labor Is em ployed and - ouslness Is resumed. But i when the forest burns. Industry dleS and labor Is driven away empty handed. The writer calls attention to the fact fairly good, fire laws are on the Statute books, yet .every forest cont-,1 rounfty sees fire after fire" set through t lsfnorsifce.

Patrol .System Weeded. As a" solution, the writer sets forth -the absolute necessity of a strong; pat rol system, so that the forests will be safeguarded Just as- are the buildings and property of a city, and in connection therewith a strong public sentiment and deep interest. ' ; : The book deals with every phase of forestry logging and .; lumbering, and, at the very beginning 'gives the significant Information that five states Of , Montana, Idaho, Washington, , Ore gon and California,, contain half the merchantable lumber In the United States, today. ? S '.T'r 'i-"If -.1. .:.; '' . :, i,. In dealing with the subject "Forest ry, and the' Public," Mr. Allen says that forest wealth is community wealth and that " the 1 public's Interest ' Is affected Very little) by ' the passage of timber lands Into private ownership, for all the owner can get out of It is the stump age value. The people get everything else. -.The' forests earn nothing ex cept by belng cut and shipped to the markets of the , world, - Tint of xind Published. The book is the first fit Its kind ever published in the Pacific northwest and is the first comprehensive discussion of the subject by a western authority, the writer being a professional forester who has lived on the Pacific coast for 26 years and for 18 years engaged In government, state and private forestry. Perhaps of greatest value to owners Of timber lands and farmers are the chapters devoted to the management of forests and the relation the forest holds to the farmer In these chapters the writer goes very fully Into the sub ject of , f orestatlon, the rate of. growth and probable - returns and many 'other features that heretofore' have not 'been' touched by authorities or students along these lines. , A limited number of the books has been published and to defray the ac tual cost of printing ' the association sells them at H cents the copy.
