The following summary is intended to show briefly what provisions are of particular interest to different classes of citizens: County Officers. Forest fires can not be suppressed by individual effort. The work must be organized. Organize in your county.

They find it pays. Have your firewardens clear up dangerous places along roads and trails. Timber Owners. Have your employees appointed firewardens, with authority to hire assistance when necessary. If your holdings are too small to warrant the expense, join with your neighbors and share the cost. Take care of your slashings. See that you have adequate spark arresters on wood or coal-burning engines. Caution your employees not to set fires. If the State or county has to fight them, you are liable for the full amount of all expenses incurred. Firewardens. Study the forest laws. All Citizens. Be careful with fires in timber, grass, or brush. Fight fires when called upon. Read rules for prevention of forest fires. Read instructions to fire fighters.

If the said State Board of Forestry after such inspection finds any forest area inadequately protected adjoining, lying near, or inter- mingled with other forest and covered wholly or in part with inflammable debris, which by reason of such location or condition or lack of protection endangers life or property, the State Board of Forestry shall in writing notify the owner or owners of such areas that the condition of said areas endangers life or property and shall require such person or corporation to clean up such areas by the use of fire or otherwise at a time and in a manner to be therein specified. Said notice may be served upon the person or persons or corpora- tion, or either of them, owning or having charge of such areas or upon the agents of either, by any fire- warden, deputy firewarden or special firewarden or any employee of the State Board of Forestry, in the same manner as a summons in a civil action; provided, how- ever, that if any such area belong to any non-resident person or corporation and there is no person in control or possession thereof and such non-resident person or corporation has no tenant, bailee, depository or agent upon whom such service can be had ; or if the owner or owners of such areas can not after due diligence be found, then such notice may be served by posting the same in some conspicuous place upon such area, and by mailing a copy thereof to the owner thereof at his last known place of residence, if the same is known or can be ascertained. Any and all such inadequately protected forest areas adjoining, lying near, or inter- mingled with other forest and covered wholly or in part with inflammable debris, which by reason of such location or condition or lack of protection endangers life or property, are hereby declared to be a public nuisance; and whenever any such nuisance shall exist within the State, and the proper notice shall have been served, as herein provided, and the time specified in said notice shall have elapsed without the nuisance having been abated, it shall be the duty of the State Board of Forestry to cause said nuisance to be at once abated, by burning or otherwise disposing of the inflam- mable debris. The expense thereof shall be paid by STATE FOREST WORK. 11 the State in like manner as bills for fire fighting are paid. Any and all such sum or sums so paid shall be and become a lien on the property from which said nuisance has been removed or abated in pursuance of this section, and said lien shall continue as long as the said sum or sums above referred to shall remain unpaid. The claim for any lien shall be filed by the State Forester, or under his direction, by any of his assistants or firewardens, in the office of the county recorder of the county in which the property on which said nuisance existed is situated. Proceedings for the enforcement of such lien shall be instituted by the district attorney of the county where the nuisance existed, at the request of the State Board of Forestry and in the name of the State of California as claimant ; and the costs shall be recovered in the usual manner. The State Board of Forestry is hereby vested with the power to cause any and all such nuisances to be abated in a summary manner.* SEC. 20. Disposal of moneys received as penalties. All moneys received as penalties for violations of the provisions of this act, less the cost of collection, and not otherwise provided for, shall be paid into the state treasury to the credit of the forestry fund, which fund is hereby created, and the moneys therein are hereby appropriated for purposes of forest protection, manage- ment and replacement under direction of the State Board of Forestry.* SEC. 21.

INSTRUCTIONS TO FIRE FIGHTERS. 23 INSTRUCTIONS TO FIRE FIGHTERS. If you discover a fire too large to be put out at once, get help immediately. If necessary, notify the nearest firewarden. If no firewarden is available, call upon a justice of the peace, constable, road overseer, or exper- ienced fire fighter. Citizens are required by law to fight forest fires, without compensation, when summoned by a state firewarden. Do not allow yourself and your neighbors to stay at home watching your fences and buildings when organ- ized effort would put the fire out and save not only your property but that of others. Here, more than anywhere else, "In unity there is strength." Organize, and select the best man as leader. Where a firewarden is present, he should take charge. If you believe that a fire will take a considerable time to put out, divide your force into crews, one to relieve the other. Keep some one on the job all the time. Form a plan of action and stick to it. Consider the rights of property owners, but don't let them back fire to protect their own property unless this will be for the general good. Threaten arrest if they persist in back firing against your judgment. Back fires should be authorized only by the man in charge. Many a forest fire becomes uncontrollable because the owner of a fence or a few cords of wood attempted to save it in a situation where it is clearly impossible to do so. Or a rancher protects his ranch by back firing all around it and pays no attention to what becomes of his back fire. The law says that "No person shall be con- victed * * * who shall have set, in good faitli and with reasonable care, a back fire for the purpose of stopping the progress of a fire then actually burning." This does not legalize such examples of back firing as are cited above. Every effort will be made to protect all interests, but selfish interference with a plan of action drawn up for the good of all, will not be tolerated. 24 FOREST LAWS of CALIFORNIA. The best tools for fighting fire are the shovel, mat- tock, ax, and wet sacks. Rakes, hoes and brush hooks are also useful. Other requisites are canteens or water bottles, and lanterns or candles for night work. If possible, stop the fire by means of a trail or trench. Where the fire burns slowly in open timber pinch it out by knocking the burning material back on to the burned area. Put out logs and stumps by throwing dirt on them. See that the fire burns over the smallest area possible. Never leave burning trees or snags near the fire line. Chop, saw, or blast them down. Many fires well under control have broken out again when a little additional work would have made them quite safe. Work at night or in early morning instead of by day, when this is possible. At night a six-inch trail will often hold a fire that would leap a quarter mile during the heat of the day. And at night less time is wasted packing water to the fire fighters. Fires occurring in dense brush or thickets, or dur- ing high winds may require back firing. Start your back fire far enough in front so that you will have time to complete your work before the main fire reaches you. Start it from a road, trail or stream if possible. If not, cut a trail, scrape it clean, light your fire, and guard your trail. Back fire along the top or bottom of a ridge, rather than midway up the slope. In narrow canyons back fire from a trail built a few feet from the bottom on the opposite slope from the fire, to prevent rolling snags and cones from jumping the line. Place burning logs up down the slope to prevent their rolling down and start- ing additional fires. Sand or earth thrown on a fire is as effective as water. See to it that the ends of your back fire are safe. Run them together, if possible, so that the fire is sur- rounded, or else run them into portions of the main fire that have burnt out, or to a stream or road. A back fire is as bad as a forest fire unless it is perfectly safe throughout its whole length. Watch the fire line after the fire is under control. Sparks blown from burning snags, chunks thrown INSTRUCTIONS TO FIRE FIGHTERS. 25 from falling trees, red-hot pine cones rolling down hill — any of these may cross the fire line. Keep some one on guard. This is most important. If you find you can not control a fire with all the help available, telegraph the State Forester, Sacra- mento, collect. No aid from this office can be promised since the legislature has not authorized the payment of fire fighters from state funds. But in a serious emergency, the State Forester may be able to get help from other sources. No fire fighting bills should be presented to this office for payment, because no funds are available. The county or owner of the land should pay the bills. Report all fires that come to your knowledge. Blank forms for this purpose will be supplied on application to this office. Report promptly. Forest fires never behave twice alike, and it is not easy to prepare general instructions that will fit all cases. Use your best judgment if you are in charge of a fire. And if you are fighting under the direction of some one else, obey his instructions. 26 FOREST LAWS OF CALIFORNIA.
