West to aid harvest the crop that an ad-
vertised excursion for this week has
been cancelled as the necessary quota of
helpers has already been secured. The
early harvest in Ontario afforded an op-
portunity to many to follow Horace
Greeley's advice to young men and "Go
West." It is hoped a much better re-
sult will be found when the threshing
machines have completed their work.

YOUR co-operation—the co-operation of all the citi-
zens of Ontario -is the biggest need in Ontario
Forestry to -day.
History shows that impoverishment and national decline fol.
lows from the destruction of a country's forests,
Most of the area of this Provinee is non-agricultural, suited
by Nature only for growing trees. This land remains yours but
the Government sells the trees.
Every summer in Ontario an average area of 425,000 acres of forest
land is burnt over, equal to a strip 130 miles long by 5 miles wide.
Thia yearly desolation at the hands of her 'own people is gradually
turning the northern part of the Province into a rocky desert. On
thousands of acres, even the soil has been destroyed by fire!
Save Ontario's Forests
They're yours
The average yearly num-
ber of forest fires in Ontario
is about 1,275. The vigilance of
the Fixe Rangers keep two-thirds
of Ontario's forest fires down to
an average size of less than five
acres. But the others are big
enough to raise the total average
to 350 acres.
Forest fires in Ontario are de-
stroying provincial assets of tim-
ber and pulp wood upon which the
Province relies to help pay her
share of Canada's War Debt.
Forest fires destroy fish and game,
decrease the regularity of stream
flow, cause spring floods, land ero-
sion and the crippling of water
powers; turn revenue-producing
areas into rock deserts.
Out of every 100 fires in On-
tario's forests only three are
caused by lightning, while ninety
or more are due to man's care-
lessness. One thousand men -
scattered over 100,000,000 acres,
have little chance of preventing
fires. All they can hope to do is
to see the smoke in time to check
them and put them out before
they spread beyond control.
The problem of adequate pro-
tection of Ontario's Forests from
fire is almost entirely a moral one
involving the whole public of On-
tario. The vast majority of forest
fires are caused by human care-
lessness due to lack of civic re-
sponsibility. The tendency is to
leave all the responsibility to the
Government for protecting the
forests from fire, The Govern-
ment cannot protect the forests
belonging to the people of Ontario
unless the people of Ontario co-
operate. Forestry needs your
patriotism, your public spirit,
your regard for the general wel-
fare of Canada.

To ger ftrst.hat•d knowledge of
the Ric! Rebellion and the results
which fuliowed its suppression, a
party of French journalists and
their wives arrived at Quebec in
July. 11*11. They were the first
French journalists to visit Canada
after C'onfedernlian.

Poundmaker surrendered to Col-

days after the battle .Of Batoche.
The Indian leader was `sentenced to
serve three years in Stony Mountain
Penitentiary. Several other Rebels,
including Riel were hanged. When
Poundmaker was sentenced to prison,
he said he would rather be hanged
than go to "that place in Manitoba,"
Ile died before his sentence expired.
The French journalists had the
only photograph taken of them in
Canada, during their visit to Stony
Mountain Penitentiary. Poundmaker
was brought from his cell and posed
in the middle of the group. Colonel
Samuel Lawrence Belson, warden of
the penitentiary, stood behind Pound -
maker, holding the chain which was
attached to Poundreaker's wrist.
Poundmaker was one of the most
noted and interesting prisoners ever
imprisoned at the penitentiary. He
