"So serious is the' situation with respect to forest fires," said Forester Ludwig. "that Governor Sprout has set aside the week of September 26 to October 2 as special time in which to call attention of the people of the state to the necessity of forest "protection and to the need for forestry work. All schools, organizations and other bodies are being urged -to bring these matters forcibly to the front during that pe additional state forests every cent possible," In conclusion. Forester Iaidwtg anted the hxml organisation to give its moral support to this movement and to help make the hopes of the governor a reality, such support already received daily from organisations of civic industrial and religious character all over the state.

"If this 'Pennsylvania desert were protected frosa fire it -could produce substantially all of the wood needed by the people' of our suite. Fire makes and keeps it a desert and our one great problem Is to stop fires. Forest The industrial depression has not affected the coal industry in the Central Pennsylvania district, except as to prices. Production continues at about the same rate and spot prices at present range from $4.75 to $5.50.

These are the two fundamental policies of this admin-tration." APPROPRIATIONS TOO SMALL. Outlining the small and insufficient appropriations now received by the forestry department. Forester Ludwig said that the present amount forifor-est protection was less than an acre, which was entirejy too small to care for the timberlands and tr give them proper and efficient protection.
