postolfice Department Co-Operatts ia
Prevent Fires

The post Office department has
just repeated, in the current
postal guide supplement, the in
structlons through which rural
carriers are to report forest fires
to the proper authorities during
the coming season. These in
structions were first issued in
May, 1912. aud during the past
two years the cooperation has re-
suited in the detection and sup
preston of many fires.
State and federal forest officers
Will make a special effort this
year to get even more value out
of the service than has been OBJ
tanned heretofore. The usual
procedure has been for the state
fire wardens or federal forest Of
ticers to send to the pOstmasters
lists of local wardens and patrol
men. with their addresses and
telephone numbers. These lists
are given to the carriers with in
structions to report forest fires
to men whose names appear
thereon, or TO other responsible
persons. This year special eff
fort will be made to follow NJ
the sending out Of the lists bN
having the patrolmen and war
dens meet the carriers personally
and to take the initiative in ar
ranging such meetings, and also
to map out plan of action to be
followed.
4 Cooperation between the rura
carriers aud The federal, foresr
officers will be effective In Che
twenty states in which nationa
forests exist and with state for,
est officers IN the twenty states
which have established their own
tire protective system. Ii is eX-
pected that the services of the
carriers will be particularly val
uable in helping to protect the
new national forest areas in the
southern Appalachians.
