STRICT REGULATIONS
TO SAFEGUARD FORESTS

The following bulletin is issued
ior the information and guidance OF
forest officers; also for tourists
campers, hunters, fishermen and
other frequenters of the forest.
The provisions of Section 3. Chap
ter lO2, Laws of 1921. which is eff
tectiye June 8, prohibits kindlng
fire in the forests or dangerously
near any forest material except at
camping grounds which have been
prepared and designated for recrea-
ton purposes. Dangerously near"
viii be construed as place where
fire might spread on the ground or
be blown by the wind to infIamma-
bic forest debris. The purpose of
this law is to prevent unnecessary
fires and contine the public use of
forests to certain prepared grounds.
1t should be distinctly understood
that the law does not prohibit camp
fires when kindled at places where
fire will not spread, and at a safe
distance from the forests or inflam-
mable material Forest officers will
judge when fire is in a safe place
In the enforcement of this law it
will be our policy to forbid kindling
fire where there is the least danger
of its communicating with the for
ests either by wind or by spreading
on the ground, and to refrain from
issuing permits to kindle fires in
the forests except in cases where
there is an urgent need and a very
good reason to do so. This applies
particularly to kindling fires for
idle or unnecessary purposes.
The efforts of forest officers
should be directed toward educating
frequenters of the forest to select
safe places to build their fires. If
a fire has been kindled in a danger
Gus place, the danger should be eX-
planned to them and the party using
the fire should be required to eX-
tinguish it; at the same time the
officer should direct them to Off
cial camping grounds, or point out
safe place to re-kindle the fire.
Where permits are granted the
permittee must pledge to kindle fire
on sand or gravel bars of streams or
bodies of water at a safe distance
from the inflammable debris. What
constitutes a safe distance depends
much on the condition of the wealth
er, particularly the wind, The dan
ger of sparks being blown to inflam-
mable debris and standing snags
should always be considered.
There may be some instances
where sand or gravel bars cannot be
found and it might be necessary to
kindle fire on the forest floor, in
such case a moist open place should
be selected which is clear of over
hanging limbs and moss and at least
IS feet distant from standing or
down timber. Before akindling fire
the ground should be cleared of all
leaves. moss, limbs and decayed
wood. being careful that there are
no hidden limbs or roots beneath,
the fire may then be kindled on the
moist soil When fires are so built
every spark must be thoroughly ex-
tinguished with water before leav-
ing it.

Baker is splendidly equipped for the
position. is an energetic, hard WORK.
pr and is man OF fine character
and INTEGRITY who will make an rE-

he has taken UP his new duties
gives such assurance.
1t IS the hope OF the Telegram
speaking for the people Of the com
munity. that Judge Baker Will 50
arrange the business Of his court
and he doubtless viii that full term
thereof viii be regularly held in the
federal bdilding here and that all
OF the cases arising from this sec

Clarksburg has been neglected in
this respect for the last ten years
or so. No federal grand jury has
been impanellcd here in many years
cases that should have been tried
here having been transferred to oth

is one Of the important court cen

the business Of the court and add
