I960 National Safety Council Warns of Farm Hazards In the Phoenix are re cently lire itarted in tome brush and burned toward form buildinga. Fortunately it was put out before the (lames reached the buildings. One of the endangered buildings was a brooder house containing a large number of baby chicks, another building contained other chickens. Each year in Jackson coun ty a barn or farm home is de stroyed by fire. While observing National Farm Safety Week, the Na tional Safety Council points out that farm hazards can be located and removed, Eight preventable causes for most farm fire losses are defective chimneys, spontane ous ignition, sparks on com buslible roofs, improper use of gasoline or kerosene, in adequate lightning protection, unsafe stove and furnace in stallations, carelessness with matches, and misuse of electri city and appliances. Chick Factors Farmers should also check to see that chimneya are clean and mortar tight in all Joints, that the roof is fire resistant or a chimney spark arrestor is used, that all stove or furnace pipes are in good condition, clean and well-anchored. Other farm fire causes which should be checked are: metal container! should be used for ashes, combustible walls, -ceilings, floors, cur tains, wood boxes, rugs and papers should be protected from or be a safe distance from stove pipes, stoves, fur naces or fireplaces; attic, basement and closets should be free of old papers, rags or other rubbish; matches should be safely stored and out of reach of children, oil stoves should be of the approved type, refueled carefully and operating safely. Newly filled hay mows should be inspected frequent ly for symptoms of spontane ous combustion. Smoking should be prohibited in barns and out-buildings. Stop While Refueling Tractors, trucks or automo bilec should not be stored in the barn nor should other buildings store combustibles. All engines should be stopped while refueling. Electric mo ll tors and gasoline engines should be free from dust or excess grease accumulation, i Main buildings should be redded with good ground con nections for lightning protec tion. Approved electrical dir- ing and appliances should be used. Fuses of proper am perage should be used to pro tect circuits. Extension cords should be checked for fraying under rugs, over pipes or nailed to wall. All gasoline and kerosene of one gallon or more should be stored under the ground or at a safe distance from buildings. All flammable li quid containers should be la beled and sealed. Brooder stoves should be of approved types and safely installed in isolated buildings.
