It's Forest Enemy No. 1
The rising generation is America's greatest asset
That is true of trees, as it is of boys and girls. When fire sweeps
through acres of growing seedlings, part of the future of America
is destroyed.
A young tree is in its period of most productive growtK. It is pre
ducing new wood for tomorrow for tomorrow's lumber, paper, ply
wood, plastics and other chemical products. But fire kills seedlings,
and makes it difficult for new seedlings to grow in the scorched earth.
Forest fires can be prevented only with the help of every citizen.
And they WILL be prevented when all of us realize that every forest
fire strikes at the future of our country.
