Today we pause to mourn the passing of Ernest Stoner, for many years one of the state’s most active conservationists. Constant effort on his part has done much in placing Indiana ahead of 46 of her sister states in conservation work. For six years he lias been leader of the Seventh Conservation District of Indiana, composed of Warren, Vermillion, Parke, Montgomery, Vigo, Boone, Hendricks and Putnam counties. Although we will miss his kindly advice, the principals he has set forth will be a guide to further
strides in this great work.

Forest Fires
To understand fully the problems
you should, by all means, send some of the dead twigs to the office of the state Entomologist, and if it proves I to be the dreaded Dutch elm disease, proper steps will at once be taken to
stamp it out.
Need of Stale Fire I’ermit Law Indiana has twenty eight fire towers, twenty six of those are loeated south of Indianapolis, where stands the last of Indiana’s great forests. Each year hundreds of acres of these forests are burned over, destroying young trees and injuring largo timber. Driving from their homes countless wild creatures, that either migrate to new localities, starve or fall prey to predatores. But when is a fire really a fire? The man in a fire tower knows the importance of this question. He has seen as many as fifteen smokes in one hour. Upon the first sight of smoke he does nothing. He knows it is probably some one burning a brush pile and will watch to see if tile smoke subsides. If the smoke grows larger he decides to call oui. a crew. Remember, this fire may have a twenty minute start iw-fore the towerman decides to call. It usually takes from a half to one hour
of protecting our forests from fire, i | 0r fighters to get to the fire, it is necessary to have some knowl- ] g,, they get there about one and one
half hours after the smoke was first sighted. Some fires burn over fifty to one hundred acres in that time, which would have been reduced at least by half, had a permit law been
in effect.
In Michigan they have a fine permit law. When a persons wishes to burn off a field, brush, etc , it is necessary. by their law. that he go to the nearest Conservation headquarters and from the officer in charge, obtain a permit to do so This permit gives the location of the plat to be burned and the date and hour the fire is to be started. A copy is sent to the towerman and he knows the fire is being cared for
edge of what causes them.
All the causes excepting one may be laid to man He forgets to put out his camp fire, or does it in a haphazard manner, he throws down lighted matches, he burns weed patches in extremely dry weather. Why are we so neglectful about fires? Is it*because, as one British writer recently put it “Americans never give a darn, and never had to give a damn?” Or is it because we
just don’t know any better?
A fire in your woods not only burns off all the small trees, but cracks the bark of the large ones, admitting moisture, causing rot and
disease to get a foot hold.
Tree’s are one of Artterica’s greatest assets. They are yours to pro-
tect and enjoy.
Sugar maple or hard maple is one
of Indiana’s most common trees. Once our state boasted many sugar camps where, every spring, thousands of gallons of sugar water were boiled down to make maple syrup. Small camps still dot our countryside, but they are mere remnants of
fast disappearing industry.

If the U. S. had a national tree it would be the American elm, and unless persistent scientific warfare against an imported disease (the Dutch elm disease) succeeds, within a few years there will be no elms in
this country.
The elm won the love of the early settlers, who built homes in its shade and brought young trees from the forests to line the streets of their towns. Some of these trees still stand and their beauty is as old as
