It goes on to say that "Of such lands, fit for the ranching of beef cattle and in some places also of sheep, there are many millions of acres that ought to be seeded for a new crop of pine, and should, during the next half century, be devoted to the production of beef, mutton, venison and the flesh of the moose, with the very finest of freshwater fish in the usands of lakes and streams which abound perennially with ; Settlers Still a Great Fire Factor A striking fact in the Annual Report of the Ottawa River For- est Protective Association for 1917 is that out of 108 fires, no fewer than 40 were caused iDy settlers. As the result of special measures to be taken this year, however, there promises to be a reduction in this class of fires. The Ottawa River Association, Eastern Section, experienced 74 fires in May and 17 in September. Fires burned over 5,270 acres in the limits and 3,599 acres on private lands the most of it on old burns and cuttmgs. In addition there occurred on the western section of the Association, damage to standing timber estimated to be less than 30,000 board feet partly scorthed. Only 28 fires were encountered on the western section seven of which required extra labour to extinguish. The western section shows a total of 305 acres burned over on limits and private lands. The total area patrolled by the Ottawa River Association is now 20,967,529 acres. The total net cost of patrol was $22,264.
