UNCLE SAM FIGHTING FIRES WHAT HE IS DOING TO SAVE FORESTS FROM DESTRUCTION Recent Fires Caused Damage to Extent of One Million Dollars Daily Could Have Been Prevented By Drilled Men Patrolling the Woods Nothing could better call the attention of thinking people to the necessity for the preservation of our natural resources than the great forest fires which have been so widely distributed throughout the country, and have played such havoc this summer. It is doubtful if the losses for the year 1908 will ever be fully recorded, but a conservative estimate by Dr. W. J. McGee, erosion expert, United States department of agriculture, places the aggregate loss in all parts of the country during these months of conflagration at $1,000,000 a day. In nearly every instance, probably in every instance, these devastating fires might have been prevented if the various states had provided an adequate number of men to patrol the woods and arrest all such fires in their incipiency, and if lumbermen and other users of the forest were careful to dispose of brush after logging so as to prevent the spread of fires. Uncle Sam has had a lot of work to do on his national forests in the fire fighting line this year, but his work has shown good results. Exclusive of the salaries of forest officials, the work of putting down fires on the national forests for the year has cost the government $30,000. This means protecting approximately 168,000,000 acres, axes and other tools distributed over the forests and tool boxes are produced. NOTICE Notice is hereby given hearing of the Reporters on the petition of Spreng et. al. of Anahilerton Road Districts, filed 1908, praying that the described lines be declared Road is set for Tuesday, 1908, at 11 A.M. at the Board of Supervisors office at the Court House. Said road is described to-wit:— Beginning at a point line of Section Six, To South, Range Ten West M., where the half-section running North and South therewith, running them along said half-section center of Section tha Township and Range. Also commencing at East line of Section S and range aforesaid, while section line running East across said section inter with and running thence said half section line side of said Section Six. Uncle Sam has had a lot of work to do on his national forests in the fire fighting line this year, but his work has shown good results. Exclusive of the salaries of forest officials, the work of putting down fires on the national forests for the year has cost the government $30,000. This means protecting approximately 168,000,000 acres. The value of the timber destroyed will not be known until the fires reports are made at the end of the year, though it is estimated that it will be larger than last year. But it will be insignificant when compared with the appalling fire losses outside of the national forests on unprotected areas, or with the destruction which would have come to the timber in the national forests had they not been protected. These results have come through the increased efficiency of fire patrol and methods of fighting fire and also through the co-operation of settlers and users of forests who understand that the forests are their property and that a loss from fire is a personal one. By posting fire notices and giving advice the government has secured co-operation from the outside, and which may be said to be as important an agency in reducing the loss from forest fires as is the perfection of machinery for fighting these fires. After timber is cut, the regulations require brush to be compactly piled at a safe distance from living trees. Sometimes this brush is burned under direction of a forest official; but even if it is allowed to stand, no fire that starts finds fuel by which it can spread. The national forests are constantly patrolled by a picked force of rangers and guards. The present summer force of such rangers and guards whose main duty is fire patrol, is 135 men; the average area that each is required to protect is 121,560 acres. It is fully understood that this area is altogether too large, and just as soon as funds are available to permit of the employment of a larger force of men the area will be reduced The national forests are continually patrolled by a picked force of rangers and guards. The present summer force of such rangers and guards whose main duty is fire patrol, is 135 men; the average area that each is required to protect is 121,560 acres. It is fully understood that this area is altogether too large, and just as soon as funds are available to permit of the employment of a larger force of men the area will be reduced. In order to provide rapid means of travel between the various parts of the national forests and to facilitate massing of large forces of men to fight fire, as well as to furnish vantage points from which the fires may be fought successfully, 160 miles of road and 3300 miles of trail were built during the last fiscal year. In several cases fire breaks from 16 to 100 feet in width have been constructed, from which all timber and inflamable material is removed, to furnish obstacles to the spread of fire, or straight lines of defense in fighting the fire once started. Several miles of such fire-breaks now exist on the national forests in Southern California, where it is especially important that the forest cover on the watersheds of important irrigation streams be protected. Telephone lines have been constructed connecting ranger stations with the headquarters of the forest, in order that fires may be reported and promptly extinguished. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1908, 3500 miles of telephone line were constructed in the national forests. Just as rapidly as possible, each national forest is supplied with she- Taxes and other tools, which are routed over the forests and cab-oad tool boxes are provided. How's this?
