IT ISN'T very likely you'll be called upon, personally, to fight
forest fires after they start.
But there's plenty you can do to fight them before they start.
For most of them are preventable.' Careless smokers cause a
quarter of them. Incendiaries another quarter. Campers cause 6.6.
Fire in the woods rolls up a national
loss of $30,000,000 to $45,000,000 every
, year. New growth in our forests would
exceed timber harvested in normal
years, if fire losses and other natural
hazards were eliminated.
Your help will aid in conserving, for
perpetual use, America's most versatile
and only renewable natural resource.
