THESE SIMPLE RULES, IF FOLLOWED BY EVERYONE IN
THE FAMILY WILL MAKE YOUR HOME SAFE FROM FIRE
1. Put lighted matches and smokes opt before you throw them away. Keep matches
where small children cannot reach them. Never smoke in the garage, barn or
attic, nor in bed.
2. Remove rubbish, waste papers and all unnecessary combustible materials. Provide
metal ash and trash cans. Burn rubbish only in a safety covered brick or metal
incinerator. Watch the fire.
3. Examine all stoves, furnaces and smoke pipes to make sure they are safe and well
away from woodwork or other burnable materials. Have needed repairs made at
once.
4. Value the advice of your Fire Chief, who says that many fires are caused by dirty
or detective chimneys. Have the chimneys cleaned regularly, and have all defects
repaired.
5. Escape the danger of inflammable liquid fires and explosions by keeping no gaso-
line in the house. Do dry cleaning with safe liquids, or send the work to the
Cleaner. Never start fires with kerosene.
6. Notify the Electric Company of electrical trouble, Replace "blown" fuses with new
'ones—not pennies. Avoid home-made wiring jobs,
7. Teach everyone in the family to' be careful of fire, to watch stoves, fireplaces,
electric irons, and all other possible fire causes, and every day to remove old rags,
paper and other rubbish.
8. Fier -proof your home as far as possible by fire:safe roofing. fire -stopping in hollow
walls and pa; tt:ons, to stop the spread of flames, and a non-combustible basement
ceiling.
9. Inquire of your Fire Chief. when buying a fire extinguisher, to be sure of getting
• the right kind. Dene hesitate to ask your Firemen when you have questions on fire
prevention.
10. Remember always where the near est fire alarm box is, and how to send in an
alarm. If telephoning, be sure the address is clearly understood. Use a. neighbor's
phone rather than one in the burning ;building.
f /
11. Explain to everyone in the house,what to do in case of fire. how to put out fire in.
clothing by wrapping in a rug or blankets; what to do when grease catches fire in
the kitchen,
12. Save life and property from needless destruction by fire by keeping the principles
of fire prevention always in mind and never taking a chance with fire.

HELP PREVENT FIRE LOSSES
Fire Destroys Without Mercy! What Must Be Rebuilt or Replaced is. Preventable Expenditure!
Do Your Part to Prevent Fire Losses! They Are Costly!
FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE RULES AND
- ASSIST YOUR COMPANY IN REDUCING
THE ANNUAL FIRE LOSS !
1, DEFECTIVE CHIMNEYS AND FLUES.—Chimneys should be
cleaned out regularly and not allowed to burn themselves out.
The safest type of chimney is a good brick chimney, built
from the ground up, and lined with fire clay, or vitrified clay.
of a thickness of at least three-quarters of an inch.
2. SPARKS ON COMBUSTIBLE ROOFS.—This hazard can
obviotfsly be eliminated by means of incombustible roofing
material by keeping the roof in condition.
1. LIGHTNING.—The tremendous "toll of life and property dam-
age annually caused by lightning can be materially reduced
by means of well installed lightning rods, which have proven
to be nearly 100 per cent efficient.
4. SPONTANEOUS IGNITION.—On farms this occurs most fre-
quently in under -cured or damp hay, although it also takes
place in numerous other substances. To guard against this
hazard, the following precautions should be observed: (a)
Cure all hay well; (b) Do not pack the hay; (c) Do not place
straw, fodder, bundles of grain or grass hay either at the bot-
tom or top of mows of alfalfa, clover or soybean heaps; (d)
Guard against wetting of hay in storage from a leaky roof or
open doors and windows; (e) Ventilate .hay as much as pos-
sible immediately after it has been stored; (f) Avoid, if pos-
sible, wide, deep mows.
5, MATCHES—Make sure that your matches are completely out
before discarding them. Keep matches away from children,
and do not permit smoking in barns or near combustible ma-
terial. During threshing operations, insist on,everybody clear-
ing their- pockets of matches, and place them in a safe con-
tainer. "
6. GASOLINE OR KEROSENE.—Gasoline or kerosene should
never be used to start or revive a fire. Avoid the use of gaso-
line, benzine or other inflammable liquids for cleaning floors
or clothes. There are cheap and safe solvents on the market
for these ,purposes. Never fill lamps, lanterns, kerosene or
gasoline stoves while they are burning. 1f necessary to keep
small quantities of gasoline, it should be kept in an approved
safety can, painted red and plainly marked "Gasoline".
7° HEATING EQUIPMENT.—Heating equipment should 'be pro-
perly installed, operated and maintained. Wooden floors un-
der stoves should be well protected. The sides and back of
stoves and ranges should be at"least 1'8 inches from wood-
work or wood lath and plaster partitions, if such woodwork,
etc.. is not protected. Avoid long runs of smoke pipes. The
sections should be securely joined and the pipef supported at
frequent intervals. Smoke pipes should be at least nine inches
from unprotected woodwork. They should not pass through
floors or closets, or enter a chimney in an attic, and they
should be cleaned at least twice a year.
8. ELECTRICAL WIRING.—Electrical wiring and repair work
should be done by a competent electrical contractor. Circuits
should not be overloaded and fuses of the correct amperage
(15 amperes for the ordinary branch circuits) should be used.
Be sure that irons, toasters, heating pads and other appli-
ances are disconnected when not in use.
9. FARMERS AND OTHERS are urged to take precautions when
using tractors in barns. Tractors should not be refilled with
gasoline when hot or when in or near barns,
Remove all possible fire hazards, but be prepared to fight a fire
should it occur. Approved chemical extinguishers, pump -tank
extinguishers, fire pails or barrels of water and ladders should
be available on every farm.

CAUSES OF FIRES, YOU CAN
