Exhaustive inquiry has established the fact that lightning RANKS
next to railroads as 4 source OF forest fires. Forest officers say thar
the increasing carey with fire o the part of the railroads and the pub
lie generally tends to make lightning the largest single contributing
cause.
This statement represents a change OF view from that held less
than a decade ago in this country, when forest journals gravey argued
whether lightning caused forest fires, though it wa known that trees
we're the objects most often struck. Trees are said to be oftene~t
struck simply because they are so numerous, and extending upward
their branches in the air and roots we'll into the earth invite electrical
discharges
While certain trees are said to invite lightning, and others to be
immune from stroke, it seems to be a fac. that any kind OF tree will be
struck, and the most numerous rec species in any locality is the ne
most likely to suffer.
Other things being equal. lightning seeks the tanest rec, OF "a
isolated rec, or ne on high ground. y decp-rooted tree Is a better

Lightning sets fires by ientng the tree itself, particularly when
it is dead, or partly decayed and punky, or by igniting the dry hunus
or duff at its base. The forest soil when dried out, lgntes readily.
because it is made Of partly decayed twgs and leaves, and it can hold
a smouldering fire for a considerable period. 1t is probable that most
Of the lightning set fires start in the duff.
In the mountains of Southern California, Arizona and New MeNic>
there are likely to be each year 4 number OF electrical disturbances
known as dry thunder storms" They come at the end of the long
dry season, and being unaccOmpaci by rain are very likely to start
many serious fires For this reason the forest service has to keep un
its maximum fire fighting strength in those regions until the rains
are fully established. In the plan, and organization for fire fighting
the service aims particularly to catch these unpreventable lghtningset
fires at the time they start
