Spring Clean Up
Pushed in County
"Don't Give Fire a Place to
Start," is the theme of Spring
Clean-up this year sponsored by
the Oregon State Extension Ser
vice and bv the county agents
throughout the state.
Urging farmers to give "all-out
cooperation" in this drive, N. C.
Anderson, county extension agent,
asks several pertinent questions:
Q What happens if you drop a
burning cigarette or match on a
clean bare floor? A Don't be
careless and drop a burning
match or cigarette anywhere, but
in this instance, the embers are
likely to burn out harmlessly be
cause the floor is clean; otherwise
the house or building may burn
down.
Q You start a tractor in the
machine shed. It backfires. What
happens? A Nothing if the
floor is clean, but if shavings,
hay, oil rags or litter is present,
the chances are good you'll have
a fire to fight. Don't take chances
and you won't burn.
Q You keep electric motors
clean, lubricated, and free of dust
and dirt you don't allow com
bustible materials to pile up near
the motor. There's a short circuit
and a spark. What happens? A
Nothing. Congratulate yourself
on being a fire-safe housekeeper.
Q I've cleaned up. What do I
do with the rubbish . . . bum it?
A Turn useable material in for
salvage. Burn the balance in
covered metal containers at a
safe distance from buildings.
Choose a wind-free day follow
ing a rain as fresh spring winds
can carry sparks long distances
and set fire to tinder-dry mater
ials and flammable wood shing
led roofs.
