COOPERATE TO PREVENT
Tl'NDRA FIRES
The Tundra is highly inflam
able.
Tundra fires leave ugly, life
less country. They kill small
birds and animals, destroy eggs.
They ruin the slow-reviving rein
deer pasture.
Don’t throw lighted cigarettes
or matches from your automobile
or tractor.
Don’t build fires on plant life,
but on bare open spaces. Put out
i sparks.
