Forestry News

Butts County Forester
Last week in Butts county was a
sign of things we all hope is not go
ing to be the case this year. There
were two fires in our woodlands
burning a total of 41 acres. In dol
lars and cents this was a loss of over
S2OO at the present time. In 15 tb 20
years this figure of 200 would be
greatly enlarged. Not only were small
trees destroyed but many seedlings
were killed. This land will have to
lay idle for many years before a crop
of timber will be harvested. The
worst of it is these two fires were
carlessly started. One was started by
a man burning off a terrace while
the other was started by hunters.
Carelessness can destroy in a few
hours what nature took years in
growing.
THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARCUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
In both of these fires there is fur
ther similarity. Neither fire was re
ported. The first fire was accidental
ly found by James Cook who was on
patrol in a jeep that day. The other
fire was spotted by Charles Elliott
who was on patrol that day. Without
the help of the citizens of Butts
county in reporting these fires, many
more acres will be destroyed. If any
fires are seen, phone 7029 during
the daytime and 3153 at night and a
jeep will be dispatched as quickly
as possible to the fire.
