The protection of the national forests from
fire is incidental only to the development of

only so far as Is needed to insure the perma-
nence of the forest and to keep 1t in satisfao-

horses and 100000 sheep and goats grazed
within national forests, or IL and 21 per cent,
respectively, of the range stock of the west.
Nearly 00000,000 feet of mature timber was
sold and cut, or enough to build 25. 600 ordinary
frame houses. More than 130.00000O feet more

tween the use of the national forests or any
OF their resources, for the permanent benefit
OF many, for the temporary benefit of a.
few, the forest service encourages use by the
many and prevents its monopoly by the few.
There are two planks in the platform Of
the forest service. They these
To insure through public ownership and
administration the fullest permanent use OF
those forests which essential to the public
welfare.
To teach American citizens how to make
the best use of forests in private hands and
J G their product. by finding out and telling
them how.
The 194.5O0,000 acres OF national forests
stand for the first plank. They conserve most
OF the water and one-third OF the timber OF
the west. This national heritage, whose
measurable material resources worth more
than two billions of dollars, is being admins
tered by the forest service in the best perma-
nent interest of all the people At an average
cost for protection OF about one-ffth of a cent
per acre, the damage by fire on national for
ests for the last three years has been per mil
lion acres about three per cent. of that on
private forest lands. In these three years the
use of the national forests by the people has
more than doubled. In 1908, so great were the
demands of the peoples business. that
average of only about one-ffth OF the time Of

area half the size of the state OF Delaware.
From Arizona to the Canadian border and
from California to Minnesota and Arkansas,
the forest rangers have done their duty. This
has meant unrelenting effort, usually under
frontier conditions There is no more exact
ing work than fire patrol; and, short OF war,
nothing makes greater claims than fire fight

The forest rangers are the backbone of the
service. Were It not for them. the national
