road to be built between Covington and

amount of good farming land for set
tlement.

understood that Covington township
will build from Nestoria to the L'Anse

give the settlers to the south and east

well as opening highway to the Iron

loss. A number of recommendations
might he made but the greatest protec-
tion is night burning of piled brush.
At night there is little wind, if any ;the
brush is damp and the surrounding
ground cover sufficiently wet to pre-
vent spread of fire. Another good pre-
ventive is to back furrow all around
the area to be burned. Rarely will a
light surface fire cross barren ground.
If one can permit the delay. the safest
way is to pile the brush and burn on
the first light snow or Immediately af-
ter light rain.
These are suggestions which may
safeguard the interests of every resi-
dent of the neighborhood for a fire, once
under head, stops at no slight barrier.
Your forests, to you, mean wages in
labor, money from sales, building ma
terials and fuel, commerce, beauty.
Then why not maintain this asset by
the observance of care in clearing our
farms and care when in the neighbor-
hood of forests for any reason. The
best forester is he who protects and
maintains and the Granger can vie
with the professional forester in this
respect and win.
Now for the one sentence, to tell
which came to L'Anse:
Statistics say that over 40 per cent
of all forest fires originate from sett-
lers clearing land. Do you wish to
continue to bear the burden Of this 40
per cent? The Grange through its in
iluence, your with your influence. your
friends with their influence can reduce
that 40 toa4. And I will put back Of
you all complete fre-palrol force to
help make the task the lighter.
