WHAT SHOULD WE DO FOR OUR FORESTS AND 

 SHADE TREES. 



We should plant our waste lands to young trees which will be- 

 come forests. 



We should never set a fire in the woods. If it is necessary 

 to build a fire in the woods it should be made on rocks or bare 

 ground. 



Never leave a fire until you are sure it is out. 



Never drop a match in the woods. 



We should plant shade trees on all our streets and highways. 



Every home should have some trees planted near it. 



Do not allow anyone to hitch a horse to a shade tree. 



Never injure the bark of a tree, it may cause its death. 



Spray the trees to kill their insect enemies. 



Water the trees in hot dry weather. 



Learn to love and protect the trees for they are among our 

 best friends. 



In cooperation with the food supply committee of the Cali- 

 fornia state council for defense, the V. S. Forest Service is 

 making plans to stock to their very fullest capacity the nationa' 

 forest ranges. If the stock can be secured and the money raised 

 for necessary trails and water developments, an increase in the 

 number on the ranges equivalent to 80,000 head of cattle might 

 be made.
