The purpose of a message code is to enable the more exnedi- tious transmission of messages that are largely of TrSe character Such a code not^niy makes for ^VcommS tion but also for certainty, since only a compiSve v feTs^Ss 1 ^ reauced. l hese factors make the use of a code oarticularlv to anv ^rm^T'" ^T'^ Protection. Such a code is'adap^ to any form of signaUmg using the Morse alphabet but its use uhiess depends mostly on its comprehensiveneS ExiSrience m the practical use of such codes in forest work is laS Therefore, the followmg code is to be considered merely tentatfve and may he altered to fit local conditions as farTLnSar^? Suggestions regarding general modifications of thl c(S^^hSe Preparation of Code first \o S^'"f^ ^ "^'"'T''- T"^^ ^""^ ^'^y *«"^ity it is desirable farst to divide the signals into two or more distinct classes if . hnK J i^^^^^^u ""der each class should then be arranged ^at>etic^^ ^'•^.er by the key-word (or leading word) b the .age. When there are two or more important words in a .:o.s,age, it should appear in the code under each of them Jits proper order. After arranging aU the messages as indicS^ si^rnls also running in alphabetical order shfuwte^'S them. These are best placed in a column to the left^f^h^ messages. A message tfiat appears under more than one key! word IS indicated by having its signal inserted to the right of t£ message in the places where it is repeated ^ . In preparmg a message code for forest fire lookout stations It IS fo^t necessary to consider what classes of mSsage a iSkoS? man desires to send. Evidently the reportSg o^hf discWj location, and progress of fires are among the foremost of theS' Fires are generally reported by azimuth bearine* in wS^ haf Zr ' '°°^'*S^'' ^^^ ^T^ To cover ?heemire circle by half degrees would require, therefore, 720 signals ^ t 4 FoBESTRT Branch Code In many cases, the azimuth bearini^ atone is not considered suHicient and the lookout man is required to determine the approximate distance to the fire, and report by both bearing and distance. 1 o do this by message code it is best to adopt a numeral code running up to the greatest distance at which a lookout man would be likely to report a fire, and, by combining this numeral code with the bearing code, such a sentence as the following may be sent : — OG DS --= "I have sighted a fire with azimuth bearing, from my station, of 24 degrees, 30 minutes; distant, approxunately 19 miles." ^ If the location of fires is being determined by a station that 18 itself communicating by visual signal, radio, or any other method to which a code is adaptable, it will be necessary to provide a set of signals that will indicate the precise location of the fire within the area being protected. If the region is covered by the Dominion public land survey, a separate signal for each section or even quarter-section on the entire area may be pro- vided, although for the latter on m area of one million acres at least 6,500 signals would be required. The message might read as follows: — B T T = " A fire has been located on the southwest quarter of section 12. township 36, range 14, west of the fifth meridian." In a region that is not sectionized, the most convenient scheme is to divide it on the map into square^, arbitrarily, and number each square, assigning a separate signal to each for reporting a fire therein. Sauares may be one mile to a side or smaller or larger as the conditions warrant. For convenience in futiu-e reference each lookout man should number his fires and refer to them by number only. Various reports as to the progress of the fire as seen from the K)kout station are usually desired, and each of these will require ^ set of signals long enough to cover as many fires as any one lookout man would be likely to report during a season. Necessity for another class of signals arises from the fact that m many regions permits to settlers to start fires are required, and it IS important that lookout men be informed whenever such permits are issued. To do this by code, each settler in the entire region should Y designated by a signal. Such a message would then be of the 1 olio wing type: — F L T = "A permit has been issued to John Smith to bum slash on his homestead." IlXPLANATION OF CODE In order to indicate the date, if this ir desirable, the code date would have to be added to the signal above, m^git^c oi two parts. in/.of^'!!' «""/<^"«"»ce in finding signals which aj.ply to definite bcations, blocks homesteads, etc., on the mip, they caTbe written or lettered on tl:o map itself in the pn^per placi. , Lookout stations are often supplied with food by pack- .ram In order that the lookout man may, if necessary, put in an order for supplies, a complete set of code signals covermK all the food and other supplies furnished, must be prepared, the amounts being indicated by the numeral code. Finally there are a number of miscelhineous and routine messages covering the forwarding of mail, presence of tourists, progress of pack-train, etc., that cannot be classified. 1-EXPLANATION OF FORESTRY BRANCH CODE «:^T^'° ^j°^'^^ ^!f^^? of signals are provided : first, Forest Signals, and second. Fire Signals. The first class coilsists of signals of two letters only and is mostly used in connection with signals of the second class as indicated in the messages. This cla^ covers numerals up to 104; a signal for each man on the protection staff and a signal for each ranger station, lookout station fire guard station, and district on the reserve. Names o!3e^ '^ ^* ^ ^"^^^ reserve in proper alphabetical The second class is arranged for convenience under the followirg subheadings: — Si) EJre Discovery Signals (page 24) (2) Fire Location Signals (page 29) (3) Fire Progress Signal" :page 38) >1< '^'ash-buming Permit Signals (page 39) (5) Food and Supply Signals (page 48) (6) Miscellaneous Fire Signals (page 63) In each subclass the messages are arranged alphabetically but the signals for the entire class are in a single, alphabeticallv arranged series. ^ ^ t c "^^|;e Discov y" includes all messages covering the report of hres detected, with bearing and distance from one or more stations. "Fire Location" includes all messages covering the localiza- tion of fires on definite sections, blocks or other subdivisions of the area. 3428— 2i Forestry Branch Code "Fire Progress" Includes all messages covering the behaviour of fires as noted from lookout stations or as repoitcd by the men on the fire-line. "Slash-burning Permit " includes all messages covering the issuance or cancellation of permits to bum slash on or near the reserve within lookout range. "Food and Supply" includes all meesages covering the ordering, forwarding, receipt, delivery, etc., of food, tools, men, horses, and all other things required by lookout men or other officers. "Miscellaneous" includes all messages not included else- where. Among these are time, days of the week and month, places near the reserve, report of movements of travellers, etc., etc. In many cases it will be necessary to send two or more signals in order to complete the message. This is particularly so in cases when to the main signal it is necessary to add a numeral, date, name of place or person, etc. Whenever a compound signal of this sort is to oe sent, always send first G E H = "Prepare to take compound signal . When sending comjiound signals great care must be exercised to indicate the pause between the signals and the period at the end of each group. The proper order of signals is to eend first the main signal of the group and to follow this with the numeral, date, etc., in the order indicated in the message. Definition of Certajn Terms " Fire Guard " includes all assistant forest rangers, patrol men, or other temporary employees hired entirely or essentially for the purpose of supplementing the fire-protective force during the dangerous period, and working for the most part imder the direct supervision of the district ranger. " Fire Guard Station " includes the headquarters of an assis- tant forest ranger, patrolman, or other temporary employee as distinguished fr-rm the headquarters of the district ranger. ■ Names of Ranger Districts Signal Signal meaning AB 2— FORtoT SIGNALS (1) DistHcts, Ranger, Names of {Names to he filled in alphabetically in each Forest) AC AD AE AF AG AH AI AJ AK AI.

The signal when received from a lookout station or other fire detection station conveys the following Message : — " I have discovered a fire the bearing of which from ny station is the number of degrees indicated." The indicated bearing is, of course, Uiat shown in the table opposite the signal transmitted. If the bearing signal is followed by a numeral signal, the message is as follows : "1 have discovered a fire, the bearmg of which from my station is the number of degrees indicated and the approximate distance in miles is as indicated." If the bearing signal is preceded by a name signal, the message is as follows : "John Jones reports that he has dis- covered a fire, the bearing of which from his station is the number of degrees indicated."

As explained on page 4 these signals are to be jissigned to sections, lots or other definite subdivisions of the area under protection, and for convenience should appear iii the proper place on all maps. If transmitted alone, any one of these signals conveys the following message : " A fire is burning in the section indicated." The section indicated is, of course, the one that corresponds to the signal as shown in a table or on the map. These section signals may be used in combination with others. For instance, if followed by a numeral signa., the message would indicate that more than one fire was burning in the same section. If followed by a signal representing one of the four quarters of a public land section, the message would indicate that the fire was in the quarter-section designated. Rules for the use of section signals with others must be made definite and prepared locally according to local conditions. 3428— 5J 30 Forestry Branch Code Table op Fire Location Signals APA ARA ATA AVA AXA AZA BBA BDA APB ARB ATB AVB AXB AZB BBB BDB APC ARC ATC AVC Axc; AZC BBC BDC APD ARI) ATD AVI) AXD AZD BBD BDD APE ARE ATE AVE AXE AZE BBE BDE APF ARF ATF AVF AXF AZF BBF BDF AP(i arc; ATG ABG AXG AZG BBG BDG APII ARII AT II A VII ax:j AZII BBII BDH API ARI ATI AVI AXI AZI BBI BDI APJ ARJ ATJ AVJ AXJ AZJ BBJ BDJ APK ARK ATK AVK AXK AZK BBK BDK APL ARL ATL AVL AXL AZL BBL BDL APM ARM ATM AVM AXM AZM BBM BDM APN ARN AT\ AVN AXIV AZN BBN BDN APO ARO ATO AVO AXO AZO BBO BDO APP ARP ATP AVP AXP AZP BBP BDP ^19 ARQ ATQ AVQ AXQ AZQ BBQ BDQ APK ARR ATR AVR AXR AZR BBR BDB APS ARS ATS AV8 AXS AZS BBS BDS API' ART ATI' AVT AXT AZT BBT BDT APU ARU ATU AVU AXU AZU BBU BDU APV ARV ATV AW AXV AZV BBV BDV APW ARW ATW AVW AXW AZW BBW BDW APX ARX ATX AVX AXX AZX BBX BDX APY ARY ATY AVY AXY AZY BBY BDY APZ ARZ ATZ AVZ AXZ AZZ BBZ BDZ AQA ASA AUA AWA AYA BAA BCA BEA AQB ASB ALB AWB AYR BAB BCB BEB AQC ASC AUC AWC AYC BAC BCC BEC AQD ASD ADD AWD AYD BAD BCD BED AQE ASE AUE AWE AYE BAE BCE BEE AQF ASF AUF AWF AYF BAF BCF BEF AQG ASG AUG AWG AYG BAG BCG BEG AQH ASH AUH AWH AYH BAH BCH BEH ^8' ASI AUI AWI AYI BAI BCI BEI AQJ ASJ AUJ AWJ AYJ BAJ BCJ BEJ AQK ASK AUK AWK AYK BAK BCK BEK AQL ASL AUL AWL AYL BAL BCL BEL AQM ASM AUM AWM AYM BAM BCM BEM AQN ASN AUN AWN AYN BAN BCN BEN AQO ASO AUO AWO AYO BAO BCO BEO AQP ASP AUP AWP AYP BAP BCP BEP ^8S ASQ AUQ AWQ AYQ BAQ BCQ BEQ AQR ASR AUR AWR AYR BAR BCB BEB AQS ASS AUS AWS AYS BAS BCS BES AQT AST AUT AWT AYT BAT BCT BET AQU ASIJ AUU AWU AYU BAU BCU BE1J AQV ASV AUV AWV AYV BAV BCV BEV AQW ASW AUW AWW AYW BAW BCW BEW AQX ASX AUX AWX AYX BAX BCX BEX AQY ASY AUY AWY AYY BAY BCY BET AQZ ASZ AUZ AWZ AYZ BAZ BCZ BEZ Fire Location Signals Table of Fire Location Signaiji — Continued 31 BFA BFB BFC BFD BFE BFF BFG BFH BFI BFJ BFK BFL BFM BFN BFO BFP BFQ BFR BFS BVT BFU BFV BFW BFX BFY BFZ BGA BGB BGC BGD BGE BGF BGG BGH BGI BGJ BGK BGL BGM BGN BGO BGP BGQ BGB BG8 BGT BGU BGV BGW BGX BGY B6Z BHA BJA BLA BNA BPA BRA BHB BJB BLB BNB BPB BRB BHC BJ€ BLC BNC »PC BBC BHD BJD BLD BND BPD BRD BHE BJE BLE BNE BPE BRE BHF BJF BLF BNF BPF BRF BHG BJG BLG BNG BPG BRG BHH BJH BLH BNH BPH BRH BHI BJI BLI BNl BPI BRI BHJ BJJ BLJ BNJ BPJ BRJ BHK BJK BLK BNK BPK BRK BHL BJL BLL BNL BPL BRL BUM BJM BLM BNM BPM BRM BHN BJN BLN BNN BPN BRN BHO BJO BLO BNO BPO BRO BMP BJP BLP BNP BPP BRP BHQ 5^^ BLQ BNQ BPQ BRQ BHR BJR BLR BNR BPR BRR BHS BJS BLS BNS BPS BBS BHT BJT BLT BNT BPT BRT BHIJ BJU BLU BNU BPU BRi; BHV BJV BLV BNV BPV BRV BHW BJW BLW BNW BPW BRW BHX BJX BLX BNX BPX BRX BHY .BJY BLY BNY nPY BRY BHZ BJZ BI./ BNZ BPZ BRZ BIA BKA BMA BOA BQA BSA BIB BKB BMB BOB BQB BSB BIC BKC BMC BOC BQC BSC BID BKD BMD BOD BQD BSD BIE bKE BME BOE BQE BSE BIF BKF BMF BOF BQF BSF BIG BKG BMG BOG BQG BSG BIH BKH BMH BOH BQH BSH BII BKI BMI BOI BQI BSI BIJ BKJ BMJ BO J BQJ BSJ BIK BKK BMK BOK BQK BSK BIL BKL BML BOL BQL BSL BIM BKM BMM BOM BQM BSM BIN BKX BMN BON BQN B8N BIO BKO BMO BOO BQO BSO BIP BKP BMP BOP BQP BSP 5!S BKQ BMQ BOQ BQQ BSQ BIB BKB BMR BOB BQR BSB BIS BKS BMS BOS BQS BSS BIT BKT BMT BOT BQT BST BIU BKU BMU BOU BQU BSU BIV BKV BMV BOY BQY BSY BIW BKW BMW BOW BQW BSW BIX BKX BMX BOX BQX BSX BIY BKY BMY BOY BQY BSY BIZ BKZ BMZ BOZ BQZ BSZ BTA BTB BTC BTD BTE BTF BTG BTH BTI BTJ BTK BTL BTM BTN BTO BTP BTQ BTR BTS BTT BTU BTV BTW BT\ BTY BTZ BUA BUB BUC BUD BUE BUF BUG BUH BUI BUJ BUK BUL BUM BUN BUO BUP BUQ BUR BUS BUT BUU BUY BUW BUX BUY BUZ 32 Forestry Branch Code Table of Fire Location Signals — Continued ^■1' BVA BXA 1 BZA CBA CDA CFA CHA CJA ^^m BVB BXB BZB CBB CUB CFB CHB CJB ^H BXC BZC CBC CDC CFC CHC CJC ^H BVD BXD BZD CBD CDD CFD CHD CJD ^K BYE BXE BZE CBE CDE CFE CHE CJE ^Ht BYF BXF BZF CBF CDF CFF CHF CJF ^H BYG BXG BZG CBG CDG CFG CHG CJG ■K BYH BXH BZH CBH CDH CFH CHH CJTH ^H BYI BXI BZI CBI CDI CFI CHI CJI ^H BYJ BXJ BZJ CBJ CDJ CFJ CHJ CJJ ^H BYK BXK BZK CBK CDK CFK CHK CJK ^H BXL BZL CBL CDL CFL CHL CJL ^H BYM BXM BZM CBM CDM CFM CHM CJM ^H BYN BXN BZN CBN CDN CFN CHN CJN ■■ BYO BXO BZO CBO CDO CFO CHO CJO ■H: BYP BXP BZP CBP CDP CFP CHP CJF ^H BYQ BXQ BZQ BZR CBQ CDQ CFQ ^5S SiS ^H BYR BXB CBR CDR CFR CHR CJB ^H BYS BXS BZS CBS CDS CFS CHS CJS ^H BYT BXT BZT CBT CDT CFT CHT CJT i^K BYU BXU BZU CBU CDU CFU CHU CJU ^^K BYY BXY BZY CBY CDY CFY CHY CJY ^■^ BYW BXW BZW CBW CDW CFW CHW CJW ^Bl BYX BXX BZX CBX CDX CFX CHX CJX ^K BYY BXY BZY CBY CDY CFY CHY CJY ^^m BYZ BXZ BZZ CBZ CDZ CFZ CHZ CJZ ^B BWA BYA CAA CCA CEA CGA CIA CKA ^H BWB BYB CAB CCB CEB CGB CIB CKB ^H 3WC BYC CAC CCC CEC CGC CIC CKC ^H!
