FIGHTING GRASS FIRES

If a grass fire starts, don't panic, but ACT QUICKLY.

STAMP ON THE FLAMES while they are still small.

BEAT THE FLAMES with a LEAFY BRANCH from a tree or

shrub. Work at the side of the fire, not with it

blowing into your face. Work in the same direction

as the wind.

Ask other parties of visitors to help.

Go to nearest Forestry Post or fire lookout cabin, or

telephone the Conservation & Forests Division,

(during office hours: K-688523, after office hours:

K-781211).

Note to Editors:

Copies of a sketch map showing the Government

plantation areas affected by major hill fires during

the current fire season are boxed for collection.
