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.
Firm Looks for
Stock Certificates
Portland - IUM - Portland
General Electric Co., said
Saturday it was looking for
old stock certificates believed
held by residents of the Pa
cific Northwest who may
think they are worthless.
The utility has announced a
campaign to locate and ex
change old stock of several of
its parent companies. So far
the company has returned
$230,000 to holders of such
certificates. - '
Certain certificates ot the
following companies, now de
funct, can be exchanged for
PGE common stock at market
price plus accrued dividends:
Portland Electric Power Co.:
Pacific Northwest Public
Service Ct?.; and Portland
Railway, Light and Power Co.
Boardman Plans .
Possibly Boosted
Portland - (OPD - Plans for
development of the Boardman
Bombing range in eastern
Oregon by the state may have
been given a boost forward by
an order eliminating some
78,722 acres from an Oregon
grazing district, Secretary of
the Interior Fred Seaton an
nounced Saturday.
The State of Oregon is in
terested in obtaining the
lands eliminated from the
grazing district in exchange
for state owned lands else
where in the state.
The Boardman range has
been marked for a space-age
industrial park by the state.
