men were employed only In the season
Of the year during which danger from
fires might be expected. This period
of employment has averaged approx
mately two months in the spring and
the same amount in the fall. and the
patrolmen have been paid during the
time Of their appointment 81 per day
for the time actually spent by them in
work. The duties Of these patrolmen
were TO suppress and prevent forest
fires, as far as they could. In the coun-
ties in which they were appointed. and
also by personal contact with the peo-
pie In the county TO point out to them
the danger from forest fires In the de-
struction Of timber, buildings, fences
and other valuable products, and also
to emphasize the fact that a large per
cent of the forest fires which occur
red were due to causes which could
have been eliminated with care on the
part OF the individuals. The work Of
the county wardens has been inspected
once In three weeks. as nearly as pos
sible, by the district wardens, and the
whole work has been inspected by the

Sept Is to Dec. Is, but the patrolmen
were only under appointment and paid

might be expected because OF the eli

II was soon evident that, while the
county patrolmen were accomplishing
considerable amount of effective
work, nevertheless even one patrolman
In each county where there was a large
amount of timber would not secure the
necessary amount of forest protection.
Consequently the next step was to Sc
cure the cooperation OF the timber
land owners by organizing associations.
since II was felt that only In the event
that timberland owners became finan-
cially interested in the matter of for

supplemented the funds Of the state by
funds Of their own to be expended in
forest protective measures could a per
manent good be accomplished In this

in that region The most ambitious
effort for the formation OF forest fire
protective association is that put on
foot last spring. which embraces four

Consolidation Coal company. The four
counties Of Kentucky embraced In this
organization are Pike. Letcher. Floyd

two counties to undertake such an or
ganization are Leslie and Clay, so that
