The purpose of this commitice in its activities is to encourage the organization of volunteer fire departments by pre- senting a plan which has been used successfully and by pointing out as examples the work which has been done in organizing rural fire departments in a number of com- munities. \ "The combustible roof," the re- port says, "especially where wood or soft coal is burped, is a serious hazard. It is found that many fires on farms originate from sparks which fall on and ignite dry and inflamable roofing materials, where no fireman are available and where frequently there is no fire equipment, the owners must stand helplessly by and see thelr build- ings burned to the ground. Unrod- ed barns are a favorite mark for lightning. Insurance statistics show that from 95 to 98 per cent of buildings burned by lightning are pet rodded."
