This loss is ax total one, too, for the material burned up cannot be compen- sated for by such insurance as is car- ried, and in practically every instance the fires are preventable. One of the most efficient parts of every city government is its fire de- partment. Men are trained in the art of fire-fighting and powerful engines and fighting equipment stand ready at all times to respond instantly to an alarm. In the country no such system is available. Farm dwellings are more or less remote; the water, supply is often inadequate to cope with a seri- ous blaze, and many inflammable materials are kept constantly on hand, such as hay and oils. It is the part of wisdom for every farmer, therefore, to give serious thought to all methods for the prevention of fires and means for overcoming them should one océur. Every farmer should study his: buildings and their contents from the Same point of view a fire inspector would in a city building, to see that all the things are done that can be done to improve conditions so that fire cannot easily start, and to de- termine the best ways of fighting any fires that may start. He should bear in mind that any preventive. or pro- tective measures he may take are for his own benefit, and that the cost of preventing a fire is cheap as compared to the loss entailed by the average farm fire. Every building has cer- tain points which are more susceptible to fires than others, and these péints should be doubly protected, as well as providing adequate protection for all the farm units. : Special care should be taken with matches. From the standpoint of “Safety First” only such matches should be allowed on the premises as will light only when struck on the box. The ordinary parlor match will take fire at a very low temperature and can be lighted in many ways. They sometimes fail on the floor and are lighted by being stepped upon, or when one jis scratched a part of the flaming head may fly off into some in- flammable material. Children like to play with matches, and often cause fires, and it is always a safe plan to put the match holders well out of reach of the younger members of the fam- ily. Never throw away a used match unless you are sure it is entirely ex- to throw it away at all but save it to put in the stove. By having tin recep- tacles hung at such points where mat- ches are struck, it is easy to place the used match therein. never be struck in the barn, or around loose hay, and matches should never be carried loose in the pocket for they might fal} out and be stepped on. Smoking should be prohibited in barns or in the Vicinity of oils and greases. ed in a few minutes if the wind should get too high. No such fire should be left unattended for even a few min- utes, for a burning ember may be farm yard, a good plan is to build a tinguished, and the best plan is not! Matches should | blown into some nook where it will cause damage. Where there is a good deal of rubbish to be burned in the rough brick furnace or use a discarded metal container which will prevent the spread of any sparks.. Where -it is desired to burn stubble in the field, a few furrows should be plowed along the fence lines to act as a firebreak. During the warm summer evenings when it is sometimes the custom*to use Chinese lanterns to light the grounds during a children’s party, care should be taken to see that the candles are put jin straight and are blown out ‘before being entirely con- sumed. Care and thoughtful attention are the watchwords that should govern every act of the farmer in the handl- ing of fire or inflammables in what- ever form, for if not he may not only get his§fingers burned but all his worldly wealth, too. Stoves and chimneys are frequent causes of rural fires. Stoves should not be placed too close to papered walls or woodwork unless a sheet of Zine is placed between them. The floor near stoves or open fireplaces should be protected from hot coals which might drop out.. Wherever stove pipes pass through wooden partitions or roofs they should be pratectéd by tile insulators or other fireproof material. be examined frequently for cracks, and when these occur, they should be filled with plaster or cement., All chimneys should be cleaned regularly to remove the soot and other inflam- mable material that may gather there. Often the birds will build nests in chimneys not used, and, a considerable quantity of straw thus accumulated. Stoves should never be allowed to be- come overheated, and spark arresters, ~~ Chimneys should Three Years of Suffering Quickly Relieved by “F RUIT-A-TIVES” | ee tesa MR.

I consulted a physician and took his medicine and faithfully carried out his instructions; but I did not improve and finally the doctor told me I could not be cured.

After taking two boxes of ‘Fruita- tives’, I was greatly relieved; and gradually this marvelous fruit ‘ Inedicine made me completely well.

Often hay, especially clover and al- falfa, which has been stacked or plac- ed in the barn when wet with dew cr rain, will generate sufficient heat to start a fire. has been known to take place in damp grain and seeds are also dangerous in this respect... Fires can be avoided from these causes by frequent inspec- tion of stored materials. ‘Smoke houses are frequent causes of farm.fires, due to faulty construc- guard against serious loss from this Kerosene is used on nearly every farm ard carelessness in its use has resulted in many bad fires. fire to surrounding objects, and from the standpoint of fire protection the installation of electric lights will be found cheap in the long run, even though the cost of installation may seem high at the start. Where oil lamps are used those with metal bod- ies should be preferred, as they are not as likely to break if overturned as glass ones. For lanterns the farmer should choose the type especially de- signed to avoid danger when handled carelessly, such as are used on rail- roads. The wick should always fit tightly. Enough vapor to produce an explosion may be generated if a lamp is refilled while hot, and this filling should never take place in the imme- diate vicinity of a hot stove. Keep lamps away from the edge of tables, or where they can be easily knocked off or overturned. On the modern farm, which is too far removed from city power lines, either an individual electric lighting plant or some one of the several good gas lighting plants should be installed. The cost is not excessive and besides the comfort and convenience they will give, the protection against fire will easily repay the investment within a short time. In these days it is about as common to see a farm without an automobile as to find one without work stock. On many farms we likewise find gasoline engines to turn the cream separator, pump water, or a dozen other neces- sary duties. Gasoline must be kept to feed these mechanical workers, and usually it is kept in fairly large quan-' tities, such as drums or barrels. Gaso- line ig a dangerous product to have around, for even et ordinary temp- eratures it gives off a very explosive vapor, and it burns very fiercely when source the smoke house should be | placed at a safe distance from other An over-; buildings, and should be watched care- turned lamp or lantern quickly sets| fully when in use. Where poultry jis raised, incubators, brooders, feed-cookers, and all other equipment requiring oil stoves or other heat, are used, and such equip- ment should be carefully watched. In purchasing these things, only the best and simplest should be bought, and their installation should be carried on with a view to the possible fire hazard. Lightning is said to destroy proper- ty to the value of over eight million annually,, most of which is in the country. Where thunderstorms are frequent the danger from lightning is the greatest, and practically the only protection which the farmer can pro- vide against this danger is the lightn- ing rod. Properly installed lightning rodg reduce the probability of a barn being destroyed by fire by about nine- ty-nine per cent., and of a house by over eighty per cent. While the easiest way to fight fire is to prevent it, and the foregoing suggestions are made with that object in view, yet fires do occur and every farmer should make some provision in advance for. such a’ contingency. Practically every fire is a small one at the start, and,the most effective first aid is to have some kind of a fire extinguisher within easy reach. Most fires can be put out by a single person» when first discovered if the means are at hand. The apparatus should be known to everybody and placed within easy access.

It crushes corn and bone for the chickens, makes cobmeal for my cows, and even grinds apples for cider. I shovel the pomace into a smal hand- mill to press out the juice.

JANUARY 4. Peter Preaches 14, 22-24, 32-42. Golden Text, Acts 2: 21; 1-13. The Coming of the Spirit. “Pentecost” was the fiftieth day, reckoned from the second day of the Passover feast. It came at the com- pletion of seven weeks from the Pass- over Sabbath, and so about the end of harvest time in Palestine. The the “Feast of Weeks” (Lev, 23: 15-16, Num. 28: 26). Then the first fruits of the harvest were offered to God, and so the early Christians saw in this fruits of the Gospel harvest which was ultimately to bring both Jews and Gentiles into the Kingffom of God. “All together,” The reference is to the one hundred and twenty disciples mentioned ip 1: 15. The time of meet- ing was the early morning. Peter be- gun his sermon at “the third hour of the day,” that is about“nine o’clock. “A mighty wind.” It was not wind and it was not-fire, but what happened mighty wind,” and to “fire.” It was a profound spiritual experience, a reality, therefore, of the highest order, and the effect upon the com- pany of disciples was such that they could only describe it as wind and fire. It was a tempest of emotion, exalting them with such joy and con- fidence of faith that:they broke out into exclamations of praise and pray- er. Above all was the consciousness | of power, born of the conviction that Jesus their Master and Lord was with them in living reality, a spiritual presence, in-fulfilment of His own promise. “Dwelling at Jerusalem Jews.” Jews, at that time, were widely scat- tered throughout the world, but were accustomed to come up to Jerusalem from time to time either fer purposes of business or to attend the annual’ festivals. They were nearly all ac- quainted with the Aramaic language, so that it was not really necessary to speak to them in different languages. Peter’s sermon was no doubt delivered in Aramaic. 14-36. Peter’s Sermon. “Peter... lifted up his voice.” Peter who had recently denied his Master with caths mighty convincing power must have: wrought this transformation. So it! was with the other disciples. There! are now no doubters among them. All. believe that Jesus lives and that He) is with them, and are filled with cour- age and with boldness to speak for Him.

He was a hustling young) chap and there was no doubt but that he would clear off the debt in a few, years, if he kept his health. But the hand of fate willed differ- entity. Before he had been on the farm a year he was-killed by an acci- dent, and the funeral was soon follow- ed by a forced mortgage sale.

And wives should demand this protection. It is their due.
