March 21, It has been brought to the' attention of the atate forester that some unscrupulous timber brokers are misrepresenting the provis ions of tha compulsory patrol law, en acted Ey the recent legislature and ef fective June 2. Owners of timber claims have been told that under this law it will be necessary for them to keep a patrolman on their claims all summer at their own expense, and this has been urged aa a reason for sacrifice sales. Untrue statements of this kind are made purely for the purpose of stimulating the sale of tlmberlands, thus increasing the business and incidentally the com missions of timber brokers,; The law provides that every timber- land owner in the state, not residing within one and one half miles of his property, shall furnish a sufficient pa trol therefor during the dry season, and that in case he falls to do so the state forester shall provide the same at a cost not to exceed t cents per acre per annum. , Any amount so paid by the state shall be a lien upon the land and shall be collected with the next taxes., ,7 ,: It is obvious that the maximum ex pense to the owner of a quarterectlon of timber land can not exceed ft per year, an amount that should scare no owner into disposing of his timber claim at a sacrifice. : . .' - ; , ' ' One of tha best ways for timber land owners to comply with the law is to Join county fire patrol associations that have been organised in most of the timbered counties of the state. It is expected that every timbered county will have such an organisation before the fire season arrives. , The experience Of these associations, some of which have been in existence for four years, proves that adequate patrol can be se cured at a cost of from 1H to t cents an acre, and if all of tha timber land owners Join, tha acreage cost will be materially decreased. Protection from fire at a cost of II or 1 4 per quarter section should be welcomed by all tlm- berland owners, and it is hoped that no one win he induced to sell their holdings through misrepresentation made by un reliable timber brokers for the selfish purpose of increasing commissions.
