Urging Adjacen: Towns and
Pts. to Join Forestry District

1t is provided in Sec. "a of Chapter
j, Revised Statutes, that any incor-
porated town or organized plantation
adjoining any part of the Maine For
estry District may by vote at any
meeting of its inhabitants duly called
and held. become a part of said
Forestry District and subject to all
, the provisions Of the law thereon.
A copy Of such vote must be certified
by the town clerk or plantation as
SCISSORS and filed with the State
treasurer and forest commissioner.
All such towns Shall thereafter be
exempt from the provisions of Sec
ttions 20 and SO of SAID chapter, which
provide that the selectnen shall be
forest fire wardens and prescribe
their duties.
The Maine Forestry District COM
prises some 100000 acres in the un-
organized towns and adjacent plan
tations and towns In the northern
part Of the State, within which for
est fire protection Is handled by the
State Forestry Service. The fire
protection is supported by an annual
tax Of II mills on the dollar on all
property included within the district.
The fund thus made available, which
amounts this year 70 approximately
$157.0OO, is used for the maintenance
of some 60 fire lookout towers. and
for an organized protective system
handled by chief forest fire wardcns,
deputy wardens. lookout men and
patrolmen.
Forest Commissioner Samuel T.
Dana. in letter to the officers of
certain towns and Plantations ada
cent to the district, says:
"The effectiveness Of this work
would be increased if many Of the
well-wooded towns adjacent to the
Forestry District and particularly
those partially surrounded by it,
were included within II. believe
that their inclusion within the dis
.trict would also afford to the towns
themselves better fire protection
than is now possible. since it would
make the State organization avail
able both for fire prevention and for
fire fighting.
"Outside Of the Forestry District
the responsibility for fire protection
rests entirely upon the municipal
officers of each town or plantat on.
This Office co-operatns with them so
far as possible in tho enforcement of
tho slash laws and in the main
tenance of fire lookout towers, but
cannot contribute toward the cost of
fire fighting.

Bay of Fundy from Passamaquoddy
Bay and st. Croix river have been
surveyed with the wire drag, also an
area Is miles in length between Ma

island. This entire area Is a region
of lodges and boulders rising abrupt

Bay have been wire dragged to a line
extending westward from Schoodic

nacle rocks and the results have been
SO startling as to indicate danger In
the use Of channels that have not
been surveyed with the drag.
Wire drag surveys are urgently

of the presence of ice worn granite
