Atlanta, Ga., December 2, 1939, W. A. Dodge, Jr. The Forest Fire Menace To the Editor: News item of Dec. 1 says 40 CCC men were used to control a fire on upper Applegate. The item also states the fire was confined to ground cover, doing no damage to the live timber. If this same fire had occurred during the driest part of last season 400 men could not have saved any of the timber in the area burned over. But if at this time the fire had been spread by the men instead of confined and the debris of brush, dead logs, leaves, etc., burned up then the timber there would be fair ly safe from a disastrous fire for Come In And Prlzet Donated By -The Sperry & Hutchlnton Co, -Chet Leonard. -Fluhrer't Bakery. -The Sperry Sr. Hutchinson Co. -Adrienne't. -Feldman's Electric Store. -Glenn H.

Look for signs of ancient fires on the trunks of the live trees and on the ground. Yes, you can find them almost anywhere. Very likely a number of fires have passed that way since those trees came into existence. But now they have been protected from fire for 30 or 40 years. The ground cover has been built up to where just one more dry season fire and they would be com pletely destroyed. Isn't it about time the forest service woke up or else are they going on pre serving the ground cover from year to year so that if, or rather one might say, when fire comes during the dry season every thing in its path will be des troyed. Sometime the fire will come. I wonder how many of us realize that in the last few years more timber has been destroyed by fire on the Pacific slope than has been sawed into lumber. .
