All IlnniU .stale 'o-oierntlng With In Prevent Ttiem. the Mrs. Minnie I Plrrson, Ftnte president, attended the convention and gao an ad- Jetatois thu best tills year Hint It has evo.- During recent years much moro atten tion is being paid by tho several States to the important matter of forest fire pre vention, and bv all reports Vermont is not lagging In this most Important matter. This year, the owners of woodlands and tho rnllroads are much moro willing, than In former years, to co-operato with the State in forest lire prevention. The rail roads, which run through Vermont, hnvo consented to allow n State inspector to In spect all spark arresters on their locomo tives. Many of these have been Inspected this spring, nnd whenever defects wero found tho railroad ofllclals were very prompt In having them repaired. Tho railroads are nlso assisting some what by patrolling certnln dangerous sec tions along their rights of way. Ono ex ample) of this Is found In the northeast part of tho State, where tho Grand Trunk railroad, Kltzgerald Iinel nnd Lumber enmpany, and the Stnto have co-operated in hiring n patrolman for n very danger ous section along tho track Just north of Island Pond. This man will bo kept pa trolling during the dry months of tho yenr. In tho southern part of tho State, sev eral of tho land owners have co-opi'rated with tho State, and a lookout station hns been erected on tho top of Stratton Moun tain. A man will be kept on this moun tain during tho dry periods, nnd ns thero Is now n telephone line running up to tho top of the mountain, tho watchman can call for help nB soon as n lire Is discover ed in any nf the surrounding country. The forest lire warden system of the been. Thwo Is from one to four wardenr In each town of the State. It is tho dmi of the.se men to sac to the prompt -!r Urtffulsaraent of ill forest fires in th vorlous towns. These wnrflens havn -'h powtv t call upon anyone In tl.e towi. fot nsjlswnce In fire flEht'ng. Mon called ou; by the fire wardens ore paid by tho towa nt the same rato which the tovr. pays to: labor on the highways. Last year's report of the State yorost Fire Warden shows that 58 Urea occurred in the month of May. This month had more fires than any other month of the yenr. Over 10 per cent, of these flrej were caused through carelessness of smokers, fishermen and hunters Fisher men and hunters should be vu-j tareful in tho use of lire, nnd nlwnys be sure tha' ramp fires are totally extinguished before leaving. This class of people should do all In their power to prevent forest fires, at once n largo area Is burned over, thl game Is driven away, and during the sum. mer months many of the brooks dry up, thus making the fishing poor. The people of Vermont should take an acttvo Interest In this matter of forest fire prevention, nnd whenever they dis cover a tire, either extinguish It them selves or cell the local town lire warden.
