FOREST COMMISSIONER'S REPORT. 85 



1916 IMPROVEMENTS AS REPORTED BY CHIEr 



WARDENS 



E. H. Decker, Chamberlain and Eagle Lake Territory, Pis- 

 cataquis County — I have built a lookout station on Allagash 

 Mt. also a camp at the foot of the mountain for the watchman 

 I have put up nine miles of telephone wire and took down four 

 /niles of old line to go from Indian Pond Brook to Chamberlain 

 Farm. Made new trail across Twp. 9, R. 13, and 9, R. 14, and 

 put three hundred porcelains on the old wire. 



Claude L. Sawyer, Long, Second, Square and Cross Lake 

 territory, Aroostook County — Repairs on lookout station, Twp. 

 15, R. 6. New trails cut to lookout. Fire notices posted on 

 all brooks, lakes and Fort Kent-Caribou road, Twps. 16, R. 4, 

 17, R. 4 and 5. I think as a rule that the people in this section 

 are a great deal more careful than they have been in years past 

 in regard to fires. 



William E. Brown, Fish River territory, Aroostook County — 

 New trails have been cut and old ones cleared out. Fire no- 

 tices have been posted on all lakes and streams also along tote 

 roads and places of travel in the woods. The people in this 

 section are more careful of fires. 



J. E. Junkins, Aroostook and Big Machias Rivers, Aroostook 

 County — At the Norway Bluff station, we clearer! the trees 

 from the top of the mountain that all surrounding country can 

 be seen. At Monsungun Lake, we shifted the telephone wire 

 from the lake shore to the tote road so that the line would not 

 get into the water. At the mouth of Mooselook, we built a 

 piece on the State Camp, 14 feet square. At Squa Pan Lake, 

 we cut two trails, one from the foot of the lake to the north 

 branch of Blackwater and one from the lake to the south branch 

 of Blackwater. Repaired the station on Haystack Mt. 



Chas. J. Thibodeau, Allagash, St. John river territory. Aroos- 

 took County — We built a camp 14 x 15 feet, close by a spring 

 of good water on the west shore of Umsaskis Lake, about 40 

 rods north of the mouth of Priestly Brook in Twp. 11, R. 13. 

 In this camp we have stored all fire tools used in that section.
