Loss of standing timber by fire continues to be appalling. On the average over 3,500 million board feet are destroyed annually. The forests of Canada are being depicted at a rate they cannot possibly withstand: more than half of this depiction is -due to fire, insects and decay. The future of the forest industry is just as dependent on the seedling trees and young growth as the pulp and paper and lumber mills, and industry generally, arc dependent on mature timber—both must be saved from the ravages of fire. _. .

Canada has the finest inland fishing in the world, but these splendid food and game fish require clean. cold water in the streams to ensure prolific reproduction.

Game animals attract foreign tourists and induce Canadians to seek pleasure. health and adventure in the great outdoors. These animals are distinctly a forest resource-utterly dependent on it for protection and food. Forest fires are most destructive of such wild life.

Ninety per cent oi the forest fires are caused by carelessness. Are you doing your part to prevent this wanton waste and destruction?
