Quart 22 c It is felt that a plow should accompany harvesting equipment from field to field and be looked on as a necessary part of the harvesting equipment in order to have it ready for emergency pro tection. Plans are to be made at a series of meetings for organiz ing fire protection crews over the entire county and for giving them proper instruction in the control of crop fires. It is planned to have one crew organized for each given area of from 50 to 75 farms. There would be approxi mately 15 designated men to each crew. One of the first Jobs the crews will have is to secure equipment Such equipment as spray outfits, trailers loaded with barrels or milk cans filled with water, and various other means will be em ployed to develop suitable pro tection in the absence of regular fire apparatus. In many instances guerilla groups may undertake this activ ity in their respective communi ties. Meetings scheduled for the purpose of organizing fire crews are being planned as fol lows: Tonight, 8 o'clock. Ferry dale high school; April 27, 8 f. m., city hall, Monmouth. Liaison officers of the civilian defense program are urged to attend and to bring individuals who would be able to organize fire fightirfg crews in their re spective districts or communities. Following the above meetings another series will be planned to give complete instructions and training in methods of fighting various kinds of fires. In many communities instructions have been given on incendiary bombs and this may be duplicated to some extent where necessary in these meetings. Fire prevention and control is looked upon by many as the most important immediate defense re sponsibility insofar vas forest and crop areas are concerned. The protection of the timber and farm crops is imperative in connection with the war effort. Observation . Post Meeting Saturday VICTOR POINT Mrs. O. W.
