Forest Rangers
Fight Fires In
Great Reserves
Save Millions In Timber
And Lives of Countless
Birds and Animals.


Denver, Colo. July 19.-Hundreds Of
forest rangers in the II national
farests Of Colorado. looking for smoke
have saved the government millions
of dollars, prevented the loss Of hun
dreds OF lives and conserved wild
game and birds in countless thousands
by their ceaseless vigilance.
Look for smoke" Is the order
which has gone forth to the super
visors Of the forests and transmitted
from them to the looKouts ar the top
OF the highest peaks and the rangers
who polite the forests during the sum
mer months 10 quench lncipient
blazes and 10 warn the SuU,00O annual
tourists and others against careless
ness in building camp fires.
1t is a cease.ess task, guarding the
millions of dollars in timber of Uncle
Sans natiGial Fairgrounds. Upon
the forests the farmer depends for his
water supply, the city depends for its
drinking water and the hunter de-
ponds for his wild game The forests
mean rain and snow which nourisn
crops in the plains many miles away
and the national forest rangers are
guarding this water supply with q
watchfuIness that never ceases.
Night and day the forest lookout
sits In his cage at the top of tne high
mountain peak, ceaselessly scanning
timber lands below for any sign Of
smoke 1t is a monotonous existence,
nerve racking in its depressing loneH-
ness, but the lookout knows that mil
lions Of dollars in timber, crops and
unnumoered lives depend upon his
ceaseless vigilance.
When the lookout detects signs Of
smoke, he ascertains the exact loca-
ton Of the blaze through an instru-
ment known as the fire finder" He
then telephones to the forest SUPER
visor and forest rangers and within
a few minutes the guardians of the
forest are on the scene. Throughout
the forests is a network Of telephone
wires and telephones which campers
may use in notifying the forest service
pended IN an effort TO educate the
summer tourist TO assist the govern
ment in preserving the national sum
mer playground of the motorist and
camper.
Occasionally a fire starts from an
engine spark, lightning or from log
ging camps, but special precautions
are taken to prevent conflagration
from these sources and the next
greatest danger, that from careless
mated as rapidly as possible by edu-
Already efforts OF the forest serv-
ice IN preventing fires has shown re- /
SUITS IN decreasing damage, although
in dry years the number of fires often
is alarmin-- Better means Of commit
nication and transportation have
enabled the service to cope with the
situation by getting a large force Of
lire fighters on the scene soon after
the blaze starts and though the fires
may be numerous. the loss is greatly
reduced for seldom does a fire get be- I
yond control
Next year the forest service expects
TO nave an airplane patrol Of the for
ests on the eastern slope Of Colorado
which should mean a greater dev-Se Of
