FOREST TIRES OF OTHER DAYS.
Large Districts Have Been Impoverished fS
 YearA AftArvgard

Large Districts Have Been Impoverished for
 Years Afterward.
 New York Evening Post.
 The fires which have destroyed hundreds of thousands of acres of timber and proper ty in the Lake States recalls to memory other great forest fires which have atain- ed historic importance.
 One of the earliest of these was the great Miramichi fire of 1925. It began its greatest destruction about one o'clock in the afternoon of October of that year. at a place about sixty miles above the town of Newcastle on the Miramichi river, in New Brunswick. Before ten o'clock at night 1t was twenty miles below Newcastle Tn nine hours 1t had destroyed a belt of forest eighty miles long and twenty-five half million acres almost every living thing was killed Even the fish were found dead in heaps on the river bank.
 Five hundred and ninety buildings were burned and a number of towns. including Newcastle, Chatham, and Douelastown, were destroyed. One hundred and six per sons petished, and nearly a thousand head of stock The loss from the Miramichi fire is estimated at $500. 900, not including the value of the timber.
 In the majority of such forest fires as this. the destruction of timber is a more se- rious loss by far. than that of the cattle and buildings. for it carries with 1t the inn poverishment of a whole region for tens or even hundreds of years afterward. The loss of the stumpage value of the timber at hte time of the fire is but small part of the damage to the ueighborhood.
 Wages that would have been earned in numbering added to the value of the pro- Gnce that would have been purchased to sup ply the lumber camps, and the taxes that would have been devoted to roads and other public improvements, furnish much truer measure of how much, sooner or later 1t costs a region when its forests are destroy ed by fire.
 The Peshtigo fire of October. 1871. was stiu more severe than the Miramichi. 1t covered an area of more than 2.o0o square miles in Wisconsin and involved loss in timber and other property of many millions of dollars. Between 1,ao0 and i,50o persons perishsd. including nearly half the populs-

ton of Peshtigo at that time town of g. 900 inhabitants.
 Other fires at about the same time were mosI destructive in Michigan. strip about forty miles wide and 1s0 miles long, extending across the central part of the state, from Lake Michigan to Lake Huron, was devastated. The estimated loss in timber was about 1000. OOo 900 feet board measure, and in money more than $1o.oO0,- oOo Several hundred persons perished
 In the early part of September, 1S1. great fires covered more than 1900 square miles in various parts of Michigan The estimated loss. in property. in addition to many hundred thousand acres of valuable timber, was more than s2,3oo.oo0. More than 5000 persons were made destitute, and the number of lives lost is variously estimated at from ib0 to 500.
 The most destructive fire of more recent years was that which started near Hinck- lev Minn on September 1. 1894. While the area burned over was less than in some other great fires. the loss of life and prop erty was heavy. Hinckley and six other towns were destroyed. about 800 lives were lost more than 1000 persons were lert des- thute, and the estimated loss in property of various kinds was s26.0oo,OoO. Except for the heroic conduct of locomotive engi- neers and other railroad men the loss or life would have been much greater.
 This fire was all the more deplorable be- eAusA It was wholly unnecessary. For many days before the high wind came and drove 1t into uncomfortable fury. it was hrrnine eiowly close to the town of Hinck- lev. and could have been put out.
