FIRE RESTRICTION FIRST ini:ini.iMM :inai.l,nn.i::.:,.--..(.i:i.j;3i:i)iai:i,nm III IN FOREST AREAS ARRIVE AT CAMP; ERASED BY RAINS FOR YEAR S STAY Permits Still Required for Slash Burning Hunters Asked to Be Careful The customary fire restric tions In the national forest were lifted today. Rogue River national forest headquarters an nounced. Under todays ruling camp- fires may be built now without a permit; smoking is permis sible in the forest areas; and no fire tools are needed for camp ing. It was emphasized, however, that permits are still required for burning slashings, stubble fields or any other waste ma terial and that it is unlawful at any time to leave a campfire that has not been completely extinguished. Hunter Care Asked Lifting the fire season restric tions will make life in the for ests more convenient and com fortable for hunters who will take to the woods tomorrow for the opening of the hunting season. The hunters were asked, however, to be particularly careful in handling campfires, cigarettes and "warming" fires In order to prevent forest fires. Forest headquarters pointed out that while the forests have been dampened by rain and that conditions in general are favorable for fire prevention, nevertheless there is danger in the situation because hunters are liable to become careless. It was emphasized that a fire start ed now is likely to smolder for days or weeks and then sudden ly flare up on a dry day and be spread rapidly by a fall wind. Late Fir Danger Rogue River national forest records show that 21 per cent of the forest fires have occurred after September 20 and that fires after September 20 have burned more than 60 per cent of the total acreage destroyed In the entire season. Not all of these late fires were attributed to late hunters but they Indicate the danger of fires after the first fall rains, headquarters pointed out. Thus far an excellent fire rec ord has been established this year in this part of the state. Hunters were implored to helpi continue this record.
