H'ttt%f-
| am herewith enclosing YOU cloth
poster relative to forest fires in West Vir-
ginia, which am having posted through
out the forest areas of the State, and a
copy OF the Forest, Game and Fish Laws
and refer you to sections 81 to 55 inclusive
for the law relative to forest fires and the
dnties of railroad companies and their
employees, which in effect is as folows:
THE law requires all railroad COM
panies to remove all inflammable materi-
al from their rights-of-way, to provide all
locomotives with netting OF steel or iron
wire to prevent the escape of sparks and
fire from the smoke stacks, and adequate
devices TO prevent the escape OF fire from
ash pans and furnaces, aud to employ in
seasons OF drought and before vegetation
has revived in t h q Spring, sufficient
trackman to put out fires on their rights
of-way. Engineers, conductors or train
men discovering or knowing of fires in
fences or other material along the right :
of-way OF the railroad shall report same
at the first station, TO the station agent,
and such station agent shall forthwith
notify the nearest fire warden, and use
all necessary means to extingntsh came,
Any employer or officer OF railroad
company violating any such provisions
shall he fined not less than $1,000 or
more than 10000"
am fully convinced that none are MOI
interested in the protection of our forests
from fire than the railroad companies q,
and am confident that YOU will cheerfully
assist in any effort to reduce these fires 10
minimum. In MANY States the railroad
companies have issned instructions I o
their section foremen and other employ
eee instructing them t. strictly observe
the provisions Of the statute regarding
same.
do not desire TO make prosecutions
for oftenses under this statute. bnt prefer
TO have yonr cooperation in preventing
and controlling these fires Can you not
issue a letter of instructions to your
employees concerning this subiect7
Will you kindly advice hy return mat
il your engines arr properly equipped
wi h fire screens, your rights-ot wav
cleaned OF inflsmmabIe material n d
other provisions of the aw complied

The woRTA OF COOP ROADS.

There never was a time when
the road question received SO
much attention from all class
es. Formerly rural highways
were regarded as problem for
rural people, but with a gradual
tendency 90 increase the county
tax for road purposes on ali
property the interest of all class
es of people is enlisted. Good
reads are costly from the stand
point Of dollars and cents; but,
after all, they are worth il. On
this question we feel that the
reply of statesman to whom
II was pointed out that the cost
of living is higher in America
than in any other country might
find application. OF is higher"
said he, "but il is worth more
to live here than Il is anywhere
else in the world" We think
that the same sentiment might
be expressed in favor of good
roads. II costs money, TO be
sure, but they are worth all they
oost.--Homestead.
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1913-09-11

The people need to be educated to
the fact that money spent for good
roads is not money thrown away,
whereas money spent for makeshift
improvements is worse than thrown
away.
