If you were in California today or even on an election day. you would see nothing out of the ordinary. Noth- ing to proclaim that women were cit- izens and voters, nothi of a mili- tant character. Quietly they go to the |olls alone or with others, step into | the booth and write their ballots quick- ly and understandingly, and deposit them and leave the place, without physical injury or contaminated mor- |als, as the saloon men and Anti- | Suffragists tearfully predicted. would > the case.

The first thing the women of forn did when they received ballot was to fit themselves to vote in- telligently. I st my first ballot at the last presidential election. I did not quite understand the meaning of some of the directions, although I could tell just where to put the cross- es: but I wanted to understand the whole thing.

Why argue against women who are heating the air and talking into space in a vain attempt to stay the wheels of progress which men themselves are helping to push on. LILLA M. RYON. March 2, 1914, Santa Cruz, Cal Forest Fire Danger. Mr. Editor:—With the return of spring the danger from forest fires is again one of the most mmportant prob- {lems of the wooldand owner. Not | only is this a problem of the individ- ual directly concerned but it is also a problem to which every citizen of the state ought to give his attention. The loss by foreat fires not only af- fects the individual owners but also | every tax payer in the state. A com- | parison of two woodlots, one burned and the other not burned, will show | why every one is directly interested | In the forest fre problem. | | | Two woodlots just cut over are left to reproduce by sprouts,—one is pro- tected from fire and the growth is very rapid with heavy leaf litter and humus on the ground. The specles | represented are the same as in the original stand. The poorer species and brush are choked out while only the more valuable species mature and eventually a crop of timber is cut. Meantime the town has received tax | from this land, and at the time of cut- | ting a number of men, are employed. | thus increasing the amount of money {in circulation, and eventually bringing | retur: | s to the owner to repay him for taxes and the interest on his invest- ment in the land The other woodlot had the same initial possibilties b t a fire occurs the | first summer, killing all the young sprouts. The stumps send out a smail | pumber of less vigorous shoots but | these are also burned and only a few | of the fire resistant trees send out a | third set of sprouts which are later | killed by another fire. The ground on | this tract is now bare both of humus {and leaf litter to make humus. The ns wash the surface and the sun | bakes it hard and dry. Weeds and herbs gradually cover the ground, and an occasional gray birch, poplar or | other light seeded tree appears. This accumulation of light, inflammable ma- terial increases the fire danger, and rarely a vear passes without its fire. his is the condition at the time the protected area is ready to cut. The burned land lacking in plant food; no growing stock and no income has been produced during the past years while art 1 introduction of a val- uable species will be necessary before a crop of timber can be secured in the The assessors place only. a nominal value upon this land, but the owner has to figure interest upon his original investment and pay such taxes as are required without getting any returns or prospect of returns in the future. Such pieces of waste land are a direct loss to all tax payers of the town, as they reduce the producing area, and in that way reduce the grand list. All tax rates are based upon this grand list and a proportionately higher rate has to be paid by the producing area to offset the loss from non-producing areas. Thus the community loses, as well as the individual. Recognizing this to be a problem | which interests the whole state, a Forest Fire Warden system has been created with laws to restrain the ir- responsiblo and careless, and to pro- | tect the owners of woodlots, The se- lectmen of each town have to appoint | a4 town fire warden subject to the ap- proval of the State Iorest Fire War- den. The two wardens in turn ap- point men who live in the sections of the town where fire danger is gzeat- est, to act as district wardens. Both the town wardens and district war- dens have power of summening such assistance of men, tools, and teams as is required to put out such fires In this state the fire danger is great- est in spring and fail, just when peo- pla sre burning brush to clear the land or dispese of trash, Hunting, fishing and pienic parties bring many people into the eeuntry and greatly inecrease the danger af fires caused by carelessness, In general the people from ihe citv are net careful te re- FDect praperty rights of ethers. This is due either teo lack of knewiedge or because of lawlessness. Far example, Emokers do net take pains to extin- guish matehes, cigars, cigarettes, and | heels from pipes when thwown an the greund. Fires are built upem land V. thout securing the owner’'s permis- &ion and witheut clearing the 80 feet required by law. The number of fires from these eauses is well shown by the great increase in fires eon helidays such as Fast Day, Permits for burning are required from March 15 te June 1 and Septem- ber 15 highway at least 266 feet from woods or grassland. This is to protect the | weodland owner from the persen who is reckless or careless in burning brush and other trash. The permit is i issued by upon r ger {uest unless he deems the dan- sreat, either because of high winds. or excessive drought. A per- mit ‘does not exempt the holder from liability for damage caused by the es- cape of a fire. started when sufficient help is present to keep it under control. The burning of brush under permit helps the ward- ens to keep a better watch for wild fires, as they are able to eliminate cer- lain smokes which are kmown to be carefully guarded fires for which per- mits have been issued.
