Remarks, Col. W. R. Brown
Mr. Brown explained the methods of the New Hampshire Timberland Owners’ Association. There are four district chiefs, each in charge of a patrol system. They utilize all modern devices, such as telephones, lookouts, tool depots, etc. They have reduced the fire damage one-half at a cost of seven-tenths of one per cent. of the values protected. Mr. Brown urged that the adjoining States should co-operate along boundaries.
