State Urges Special Fire Pre-

TRENTON, April 12-Calling at
tention to the fact that more thar
10000 acres OF forest land is being
burned in New Jersey. the State De-
partment of Conservation Inc De
veiopment in a statement TODAY
urges special programs in thc
schools on fire prevention. II SO
happens that this year Arbor Day
falls during the week proclaimed as
Forest Protection Week. by Presi-
dent Harding. and the department
requests that the two occasions be
taken care of Jointly.
II is said that Arbor Day Sas first
observed in Nebraska in 1872 as a
tree planting movement. for Nebras-
ka in those days was almost a tree
less state. The planting feature has
never been the most important one
in New JERSEY, however. for nearly
half of the state is naturally forest
land. The greater emphasis here is
placed upon the care and develop
ment of what nature has already so
generously provided.
"A complete Arbor Day program
in New Jersey" said G. +. WILDER.
state firewarden, should emphasize
the dependence of every individual
upon the products of the forest:
upon the wisdom of growing these
products near at home, as we may.
instead of paying. as New Jersey
does. $4,000. 900 yearly for freight
alone on timber from the rapidly
exhausting supplies OF the south and
west; upon the necessity for keeping
the woodlands. If we are to have
them as Fairgrounds and as the
home for the multitudes of birds.

where there is forest land.
