Every p ' ev-holder should considee

We have been trying' to educate

clean your chimney.: and pipe= re��u"
arily; remove all rubbish from the
stoves and furnaces; deposit ashes

gasoline and do not start fires with
kerosene. The u::,, of cigarettes a-

smokers about the use of matches. If
you use Hydro, do not change the
wiring or size of fuses without con-
sulting a qualified elf trcian.
The Board of Directors has been

avej� irn of this annual message to
caF'€attentio'iri to certain deficiencies'
vrhich occur In connection with claims
For live stock losses, frequently de-
laying nayment of and sometimes en-
tirely invalidating such claims. In
doing so there is n: thought of in-
timidating the members into a strict-
er eoeripliance with their policy coir
ditions, .but it is confidently felt that
a bettor co-operation voluntarily will
"esrtlt from an understanding of the
matter. Perhaps the most frequent of
these is the failure to report the less
as specified in the policy, within 24
hours df'. the storm during which it is
alleged to have occured; very often
