THERE were 1021 forest fires reprted in Ontario
last season. The vigilance of the fire rangers kept 53
per cent of these down to a size notexceeding five acres.
But yet the total area burned was over 346,000 acres—
equal to a strip of forest one mile wide from Toronto
to Cochrane.
Of the total number, only 52 were lightning fires: In
other words, out of every 100 fires,59 fires; were due to
man's carelessness and were preventable...
•
Accordingly, the problem of forest protection ii
Ontario calls for the co-operation of the whole citizen-
ship of the Province. If reasonable care be exercised
by everyone in, the woods to prevent the start of fire, our,
forests will be safe. Railway officials,; campers, pro
spectors, lumber firms, settlers, construction firms—all
can help by being carefu1 of fire in the woods, and by
joining hands with the press, the leaders of public
opinion, and the business men of Ontario, in prompting
educational propaganda to reduce forest fires.
