Famine IN MEN
TO FIGHT fires
Shortage Makes Forest Fire
Situation in the North
west Desperate.
FEARLESS MALES SOUGHT
Husky Man Who is Willing to Work
Looks Good as Million Dollars to
Officials of United States
Forestry Service.

Spokane, Wash.-One of the biggest
industries OF the northwest this sum-
mer is the fighting of forest fires.
A good, husky man, with two strong
arms and willingness to work, looks
as good as million dollars to the of
ficials of the United States forestry
service, and the big lumber concerns,
whoare losing vast values in timber.
There is famine in men. That is
the great reason fires started by care
less campers or lightning storms, have
been able to spread over many miles
Of Americas richest lumber lands and
cause damage that will not be replaced
for generation.
one large fire in the Pack river dis
trict, northern Idaho, burst entirely
beyond control and spread over forty
five square miles of territory without
showing the least signs of dying down.
Men to fight it were few and far be-
tween.
War Against Flames.
In Spokane as well as the coast
cities the forest service is waging re-
cruiting campaigns similar to those
carried on during the war. 1t is a
war-against flames almost as destruc-
tive TO America as the flames that
broke out in Europe.
Lumberjacks, those big-shouldered
veterans Of the forest life, make the
finest fire fighters This summer they
have had little chance to engage in
their regular work of cutting timber,
and have bent all their efforts to saw
ing the forests that house the nation.
The forest service maintains a cease
less lookout. AS soon as smoke is dis
cerned the news is flashed to head
quarters; a crew is hastily recruited
and equipped, and sent into the burn
ing area with full supplies of food,
tools and bedding.
But they have little chance to use
the bedding. Fire fighting is an all
night all-day job.
How Fire Is Beaten.
The only successful method of stop
ping a fire is to get in front of it,
clear n wide trail, and widen it by
backfring.
A slight change of wind will make
the back fire cross the trail and en-
danger the workers lives.
Blazing trees frequently fall with
the wind across the trail, and undo
the work of a day. The lumberjack
is as expert at tree lodging rs he is
at playing poker.
One result of the epidemic of fires
in the present summer will be Il Wig
orous effort, on the part Of lumber
companies and forestry men alike, to
secure from congress a greater APP
FOR the forest service than /
ever before. Americas forests are no .
longer so numerous and well-grown .
that the trees can be sacrificed with
out national suffering.
