COST $850,000

295,000 of Private Property
Destroyed

*< Department of For
estry, Pennsylvania
Jo»t $850,000 from
forest fires in 1915.
■feilffllllljljl were reported for
pig—-38 burned over 42,000
acres of the State
forests and 295.000 acres of private
forest, land. Over $32,000 was spent
[ in extinguishing them. .
The causes are given as. follows:
i Railroads, 274 fires, doing $185,000
damage; brush burning" on dry or
j windy days, 105 fires, doing $35,000
| damage; incendiary, 102 fires, doing
$98,000 damage; carelessness of hunt
! ers. fishermen and campers, 136 fires,
i doing SIOB,OOO damage; lightning, 19
| fires, doing $2,000 damage; miscella
neous, 37 fires, doing $52,000 damage;
unknown, 382 fires, doing $305,000
damage.
Department officials say that reason
able care would have prevented prac
tically all the fires except those caused
by lightning and a few which started
from burning buildings.
The average fire covered 300 acres,
did damage estimated at $775 and cost
S3O to extinguish. Half the flre» cov
ered less than 100 acres each; one
third covered from 100 to 1,000 acres
each, and 77 are reported as having
burned over more than 1,000 acres
each, or about 60 per cent, of the total
burned area. It is apparent that the
greater part of the damage Is done by
the comparatively few large fires,
hence the department will make a
special effort in 1916 to reduce the
number of thousand-acre fires.
New York, which protects about the
same forest area as Pennsylvania, ap
propriates a cent an acre each year for
prevention and extinction, and the
average fire covers only 33 acres;
Pennsylvania appropriated only three
tenths of a cent per acre and Its aver
age fire is ten times as large.
The $830,000 loss is the direct loss
from burned timber only. The in- |
direct loss cannot be computed accu
rately, but it is estimated at from
$15,000,000 to $25,000,000. In this
estimate are included the loss to labor
caused by keeping unproductive
5,000,000 acres of forest, every acre of
! which is burned over once In ten years;
| the loss in floods, water famines and
impure water supply, caused by the
burning of the humus and litter on
j the forest floor, which is Nature's
filter; the loss in taxes, due to de
j preciation in value of the burned for
| ests, which amounts to about $300,000
I a year; and the loss to agricultural
crops, which suffer from the reduced
humidity of the air where no forests
are present to give off moisture. There
is also a decided decrease in game and
| birds, thousands of small animals and
| birds being actually burned and thou
sands more driven from the burned
I forests. , '
The new bureau of forest protection,
created by an act passed at the last
session of the Legislature, has reor
ganized the forest fire warden system
of the State on a nonpolitical basis,
making appointments only on merit.
The co-operation of the game and fish
warden, rural mair carriers, employes
of the State Highway Department and
the State police has been secured. In
cluding the foresters and rangers in
(he Pennsylvania Forest Service, the
total number of wardens is now about
1,800.
The bureau has $45,000 available for
Its work of prevention and extinction j
of forest fires for two years. Since it
cost $32,000 for one year for extinc
tion only, It is evident that few pre
ventive measures can be taken or
much relief expected until sufficient
funds are appropriated.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair
If you want to keep your hair In
good condition, be careful what you
wash it 'with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsi
fied cocoanut oil (which is pure and
entirely greaseless), is much better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use for shampooing,
as this can't possibly Injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub It in. One or two teaspoon
fuls will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, and cleases the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses
out easily, and removes every particle
of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and even
ly. and it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsifled cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
months.—Advertisement.

Proper Way to Keep
Your Hair In Curl
If you want your hair to grow and
thrive, don't curl.lt with a hot iron. The
regular use of this barbarous instru
ment is bound to keep the hair dried
and parched looking, with broken, un
even ends. It's a lot more sensible to
adopt the simple silmerlne method,
which will not Interfere in the least
with the growth and health of the hair.
Moreover, it means a far more beautiful
curly and wavy effect, with no evi
dence of having been artificially acquir
ed.
A few ounces of liquid silmerine—
which can of course be found in any drug
store —will last a long time. Just try a
little of this harmless liquid to-night,
nip a clean tooth brush Ino it and draw
this down the full length of the hair.
Silmerine. by the way, is neither sticky
nor greasy; you will be simply delighted
with it.—Advertisement.
