Ont rio-mis the biggeist need in Ontario Forestry Forestry to -day: History shows that irnpoyerishment: and national deel'bne'fo1- lows from the'destruetion of a country's forests. Most of the area of this Province is noxi -agricultural, sullied by Nature only for growing trees. This land remains yours but the Governrneet sells the trees. Every summer in Ontario an average area of 425,000 acres of forest land is burnt osear, equal to a strip 180 miles long by 5 miles wide. This yeaely desolation at the hands of her own people is gradually tinning the northern part of the Province into a rocky desert. 'On thousands of acres, even the soil has been destroyed by fire! � ,r. If y5.l'y',� 4 Wit. `? e is They9re )burs The average yearly num- ber of forest fifes in Ontario is about 1,275. The vigilance of the Fire Rangers keep two-thirds of Ontario's forest fires down to an average size of less than five acres. But the others ale big enough to raise the toi:al average to .850 acres. Forest fires in ,Ontario are de- stroying provincial assets of tim- ber and- im- be:,:.and pulp wood upon which the Province relies, to help pay her share of Canada's War debt. Forest fires destroy fisc acid game, decrease the regularity of stream flow, cause spring ,goods, land ero- sion and the crippling of water powers; turn revenue-producing areas into rock deserts. (" Out of every 100 fires in On - f tario's forests only three are caused by lightning, while ninety or more are due to man's care- kf' Ontario Forestry Branch, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, Ont.

All they can hope to do is to see the smoke in time to check tham 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- ta:rio. The vast majority of forest fires are caused by human care lessness due to lack of civic re- sponsibility. The tendency is to iezve 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 ' rola: uctriotism, your public • spirit,, your regard for the general wel fare of Canada. • iii `` �J%I✓'�� +itt, tp: rt },; •r.
