| Looking Ahead!
J Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
i the Northfland, and justifies all Alaskans In holding to their firm faith
* jn the Territory's possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
* working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
■ Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
* greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
■ way that a high purpose can be realized.
J The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pains
* takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
* Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
■ the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
* ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

district. Fire guards will be placed
on duty May 1.
In addition to District Ranger
Brady, whose headquarters are at An
chorage, a fire warden will be sta
tioned at Anchorage, a fire guard at
Hope, one at Girdwood, and onfe at
Lawing. Later in the season, if con
ditions warrant it, a fourth guard will
be placed at Primrose on Kenai.lake.,
Early in May all members of the
fire organization will be assembled at
the Kenai Lake ranger station for a
two-day intensive training course in
fire suppression methods. Forest Sup
ervisor McDonald and Ranger Brady
will be in attendance at the meeting,
both of whom spent a part of last
fall studying improved fire fighting
methods of various forests in the
states.
The Chugach national forest, parti
cularly in the Anchorage district, suf
fers heavy damage yearly from forest
fires. Last year 35 fires were reported
covering an area of 4,207 acres and
destroying nearly one million feet of
timber. Suppression costs amounted
to approximately $10,000.
In 1924 the number of fires reported
was SS, and the acreage burned over
11,506. The timber destroyed amount
ed to nearly nine million feet.
All indications point to a bad fire
season this year. Snowfall last win
ter was away below normal and the
season is nearly one month ahead of
the average year.
Without the sincere cooperation of
all forest users throughout the Anch
orage district, 1925 will prove a costly
year in the matter of forest fires.
Every fire which occurs in this part
of Alaska is directly the result of
someone’s carlessness. Despite the
best efforts of the forest protection
forces, little can be done to reduce
the number of fires and the yearly
waste of burned timber without the
close support and wholehearted co
operation of the people who travel
through and use the forests.
