Your support and co-opera-Jion is absolutely essential. Forest fires are rapidly diminishing our resources of timber and pulpwood. Over 90 per cent, of Ontario's forest fires are caused by human carelessness. If everybody was careful to prevent the start of fire, Ontario's Forest would be safe. Save Ontario's Forests They're yours BUSINESS MEN of Ontario -- Lend us a hand. The various busi-associations -- of bankers, boards of trade, manufacturers, merchants, lumbermen; engineers, educationalists, tourists, and sports-., and all other bodies of weight and influ-a great work for this province and for their own interests as well by actively promoting educational propaganda to reduce forest fires. RAILWAY OFFICIALS can help. Railways cause 40% of Ontario's Forest fires. .The Forestry Branch is being well supported by improved co-operatifon on the part of railway officials and by the Dominion Railway Board. Let us reduce the number of railway fires one-half this summer. (The train passenger in Northern Ontario who nonchalantly throws his cigarette or cigar out of the window during the forest fire season is deserving of a jail sentence!) CAMPERS, tourists, fishermen, picknickers, berry pickers, prospectors and hunters should Ontario Forestry Branch i though out of feel their responsibility sight of the policeman. SETTLERS can co-operate by exercising more care in setting out fire on their own property. LUMBER FIRMS can help by impressing on all foremen the need for carefulness. River-drivers in dry seasons should be specially warned. Gangs of men going in and out to the camps need special attention, because of the danger along the slash-lined trails from the inevitable cigarette. THE PRESS could do more public-spirited constructive work to reduce forest fires than any other single agency. This is a non-political campaign in which the whole press could join. LEADERS OF PUBLIC OPINION in every community should be the first to extend a helping hand.
