Wet hay can be dangerous. As
well as lowering the quality of the
feed, it can result in a
spontaneous combustion fire,
threatening buildings and
livestock, and human lives.
Hal Wright, farm safety
specialist, Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food offers a
practical way to check damp hay
for heating, It is a simple,
inexpensive probe which should
give the farmer advance warning
of a spontaneous combustion fire.
The probe consists of ten feet of
1 /2 inch electrical tubing. A
sharpened hardwood point is
riveted to the end and about six,
1 /4 -inch holes drilled just above
the point. The probe is then driven
eight or nine feet into the hay.
Then an ordinary candy or oven
thermometer tied to a cord is
lowered to the bottom of the tube.
After the thermometer is in place
for approximately five minutes, it
is removed and the temperature
noted. The operation should be
repeated indifferent areas of the
hay mow.
Mr. Wright gives the following
temperature signposts: 150
degrees F—entering the danger
zone, Make ..temperature
observations daily, 160 degrees
F—Danger! Inspect every four
hours to see if the temperature is
rising. 175 degrees F—Fire
pockets may be anticipated. Call
the fire department pumper and
wet down the hay. 185 degrees F —
Remove the hay. The pumper
•should be available since flames
will develop when the hay comes
immediately after the Sunday
Memorial Church Service on July
2.
The President, Mrs. Don
Middleton had drawn a detailed
map of the Middleton grounds pin-
pointing the various features
planned in this Picnic, She then
delegated committees to look
after the execution of this
grandiose plan with fun for all.
Mr's. Ray Wise reminded the
members of the auction sale
sponsored jointly by the A.C.W.
and the Board of Management to
be held on the church grounds on
August 5. Contributions will be
welcomed from all possible
sources.
Mr. Youmatoff closed the
meeting with prayer, after which
the hostess and Mrs. Fred
Middleton served a delicious
lunch. The next regular meeting
of the A,C.W. will be held in
September.
The Confirmation service at 11
a, m. Sunday, June 18 will be one of
the highlights of this year's
centennial services at St. Juries
Church. Bishop William
Townsend, who himself was
baptized in St. James Church, will
be the Confirming Bishop, The
congregation of Trinity Church,
Bayfield and a host of friends will
join in this service.
Mr. Fred Middleton, Mrs. Don
Middleton and Mrs. James Storey
attended the Deanery , meeting
held recently in Exeter.
Mr. and Mrs. Stewart
Middleton and Mr. and Mrs.
in contact with the air, 210
degrees F—Critical! The hay is
almost certain to ignite.
Long planks across the top of
the hay may be advisable for
making observations or removing
the hay, he says. As a further
precaution, Mr. Wright advises
farmers not to enter the hay mow
alone, or without ropes tied to
their waists. If fire pockets have
developed, there is a danger of
falling into them.
Going away ?...
Don't forget to be
a Blood Donor
before you go !
