Shocking, isn't it? Yet it’s the tragic truth. Last year alone there was a total of 177,000 forest fires throughout the ITS., t an average of nearly 500 per day! These fires were not small ones, either. They burned a total area of nearly 10 million acres—larger than the states of Massa chusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island combined! Just the cost of fighting them came to more than 70 million dollars. And that doesn’t count the loss of watershed, timber, recreational values and even lives. And the most tragic part of all is that 9 out of 10 of these fires were preventable because they were caused by just plain old human carelessness —carelessness with campfires, cigar ettes, brush and clearing fires, burning rubbish, etc. So please —won’t you do your part in helping to put an end to this needless waste? Be extra careful with fire, wherever you are. Observe local regulations when burning rubbish. Use your ash tray when motoring. Make sure your campfires are out — dead out! Help keep America green!
