FOREST FIRE FUNDS.
Commissioners Mace Tells Of work Of
the Year.

The announcement that the State Of
Maine coaid no longer maintain it,
splendid organization for the prevention
and extinguishment OF forest nres created
somew hat ofa sensation among the tim
berland owners in the Maine forestry dis
trict. The special fund raised under
chapter 1sa Of the Laws Of 1909 amounted,
in round numbers, to 900. Al . result
OF the activities Of Gov. Plsisted and Land
Agent Frank Il. Mace, OF Great Pond,
Maine was granted 10000 under the
Appalachian forest reserve oct, the maxi
mum granted to any state by the National
forestry service. the two funds combined
made $4,000, which was available to COM
bat the ravages Of fire in the forests.
The whole OF both sums has not Jet
been expended. but the margin OF safety
became SO small and the desire to avoid an
oyerdraft was 90 strong that It was de-
cided to suspend all work except that OF
the men on the lookout stations. This
left vast property Of tremendous value
but scantily protected, through NO mans
fault or lack of foresight. The timber
owners themselves stepped into the
breach and immediately agreed TO carry
ON the work in the Aroostook and st.
John systems, dating from Aug Is. Thu
work will be directed BY Hosea B. Buck,
OF Bangor, and the same organization %
that used in the forestry district will b
employed. Similar action 10 expected on
the part Of the Kennsbec timber interests.
ut caused much regret on my part to b
Obliged to call Oh the patrolmen or to cur
tail the work in a~y way said FORGET
