 Seasons ?ire Record 



The recent rains have put an end to the fire seaoon 

 tauch to evor;; Forest Officer's relief. We have had on a whole 

 a sucoeesful season in oonns.ri8on with our record last year. 

 Sone of our fires have covered more ground than they should, 

 but fortune tely the damage to timber has been small. A 

 peculiar fact is the.t our largest fires this season did not 

 occur in the districts where v?e had so much trouble last year. 

 The appended table shors the number of fires this season and 

 where they were located. Sor.e of the Rangers v:ill be surprised 

 to see fires in their districts vrtiioh may have covered less than 

 an acre in extent given as Class C fires. There are about ton 

 fires of this character vrhich have been reported under Class C 

 because of the temporary le"bor involved in accordance vrith in- 

 structions of the District Forester. The number of Claes C 

 lires does not carry much v;oi:ht, however, the principal con- 

 sideration being the amount of land burned over and damage 

 done. The cost of our fires, exclusive of ranger's labor 

 \vas C'3210.70.
