Porcupine Fire Is Is a 'a Warming to All Canadians. In Porcupine the terrible loss of life in the great fire dwarfs all other considerations. On account of this loss, rather than because of the value of the property destroyed, it is timely to point cut the absolute nec ity of greater expenditure upon fo pro- tection. he methods that will pro- tect the forest from fire will save the lives of the people dwelling near the forest. The Porcupine calamity will do 'much to create a public opinion that will support the Government im any expenditures that it may deem necessary for the protection of the forests in the north. It is a mistake to hold the great heat responsible for the holocaust at Porcupine. Unless the kindling is ready the match will not light the fire, and the terrible heat can only be considered as the match to the kindling already pre pared by the carelessness of pros. pectors and others, for it the dry debris lying on the ground and not the standing trees that provides the great fuel for the bush fires, In a report on the subject issued by the Department of Agriculture at Washington five necessary measures for the protection of the forest are given, says The Mail and Empire, as follows: The disposal of slash from loggi operations. The development and fire lines . The establishment of lookout tions and telephone lines. ] The organization of a protective supervisory and fire-fighting force ! The control of insects which kill trees and cause an accumulation of dead, inflammable timber No one of these measures alone will protect a forest, nor can one of them be safely omitted. With all these measures in operation and carried out by an adequate force, such fires as that of the Porcupine would be impossible. To put into effect such a scheme a great expendi- ture of money be necessary but no district in world is bftter able to afford it than Ontario's min- ing district. There has been than enough silver taken out Cobalt to give forest prot Neorth-Bay_to James Bay. Apart from the necessity tection to human life, the the north are well worth preserving for their own sakes Until a few years ago it Was "popularly supposed that our timber almost as in. exhaustible as our supply of fresh water, and even yet the official esti- mates of the remaining timber con- vey this impression to anyone who is not a lumberman. We have stand- i in Canada something less than jon feet of timber, including ow grades. It seems a lot, is mot much more than balf the estimated amount at one time What we have cut anu used amount to little compared with what has been lost by fire. In our greatest lumber. ing region, the Ottawa valley, i been calculated that for every that has been cut by twenty feet has been destroyed fire. A recent bulletin from the for- estry branch of the Department of the Interior says that the loss to the public treasury dfie to forest fires is not less than $1,042.500,000 The same report declares that the forest fires that are occugring are not so much the result of the absence of laws as the lack of enforcement of existing laws To be properly en- forced, these faws must have back of them the support of the people, for without it Legislatures will not vote the generous sums necessary for carrying on the work. t also points out that reforestration has its limits, and that it cannot undo the work of a disastrous fire. Not only are the standing trees _destroyed, but often the soil is rendered permanently un- fit for growing another forest . This is because the humus in the ground is consumed. In cases where the soil is not speiled for producing a second growth it 1s generally found that the forest succeeding a burned pine or spruce district is made up of infer- jor varieties of trees, on account of fhe fact that aspen, poplar, birch and jack pine produce more seeds than white pine and spruce and scatter them over a wider area, The effect of forests upén rainfall and climate generally is pretty well understood It has been di scussed previously and need not be pointed out again. The fact to bear in mind is that wisdom twenty years from now will not correct any neglect cf the forests to-day: and that there is considerable neglect is indicated by the following passage from the rep rt of the Department of 'the Interibr "Of all the civilized nations in the northern hemisphere, Canada is do- ing the least to treat the public lands as a permanent asset" When it comes to be a question of the lives of citizens, as in Porcupine, Canada is not likely to remain indifferent.-- Montreal Standard. of roads, trails sta. of pro- was by (atulence ng the active pr iets relleve and cure indigestion---acid ---dyspepsia.
