Your farm and fire
A pamphlet published by the
Office of the Fire Marshal, De-
partment of the Attorney General
is available free of charge from
the local fire department. It con-
tains a diagram of all the areas
which should be checked period-
ically in carrying out a fire safety
program.
Pre -Fire Planning
A fire in a rural area is far
more serious than a fire in a town
where there is a well -organized
fire department and an adequate
supply of water for fighting fires.
'Unless water is available for use
by the fire department little can
be done to prevent a total loss in
the event of fire.
Plan ahead to reduce the risks
of fife and provide a supply of
water for use in an emergency. A
farm pond constructed in accord-
ance with specifications provided
by the Ontario Department of Ag,
riculture and Food is extremely
useful for this purpose and Oto -
vides an invaluable addition to
the cistern. -
Farm ponds should be no closer
than 100 feet to major buildings, ,
but on the otherhand a 'distance
of several huhdred feet would'
cause delay in fire fighting
operations through time spent in
laying hose to the buildingon fire.
Seek advice from your local
building and fire officials and
hydro authority regarding any
additional buildingsor additions.
or alterations to existing. build-
ings. Also consult your local agri-
cultural representative in these
matters. Major buildings should
be placed as far apart as pos-
sible. A distance of 150 feet is de-
sirable.
Fire Detection and
Procedure
Make sure that every resident
and employee on thefarm under-
stands the importance of prompt
action in the event of fire. When
fire is discovered callithe•fire de-
partment at once, before making.
any, attempt to fight the blaze.
Keep the fire department num-
ber posted prominently near the
phone. When speaking on a party
line, always hang up immediate-
ly if another caller breaks in to
report a fire. Remember that de-
lay in calling the fire department
will give the fire fighters little
chance to avoid a total loss.
While. aid from neighbors is of
great value when fire strikes, do
not allow cars or trucks to ob-
struct the approach of the fire de-
partment to the burning building.
Follow These Rules
Never permit smoking in barns
or near stores of any other flam-
• mable material.
Never refuel an internal com-
bustion engine while it is hot or
running.
See that crops are dry, before
storing, provide adequate ven-
tilation and repair leaky roofs.
Check -for other. spontaneous
heating hazards such as manure
piles and oily or paint covered
rags.
Be sure that all electrical wir-
ing is inspected and approved by
the hydro authority.
Burn rubbish only in an in-
cinerator equipped with a spark
arrestor, and never in a high
wind. Exercise care and keep a
pail of water handy.
Do not carry out field burning
under any circumstances.
Equip all major buildings with
lightning rods, in accordance
with the regulations of the Light-
ning Rods Act.
Be sure that crop dryers have,
adequate controls to shut off
blowers or dampers when tem-
perature gets too high in the heat
transfer chamber. Never use
homemade dryers. ,
Never use• fumigants near an
open flame or electrical equip-
ment.
Provide first aid fire fighting
equipment.
Consult your fire department
for .advice and literature on all
farm. safety matters.

TREATMENT FOR
A NOSE BLEED
'A nose bleed can be distressing,
uncomfortable and sometimes
serious.
In its First Aid -Manual, St.
John Ambulance recommends
that the casualty sit upright with
the head thrown slightly forward.
Tight clothing around the neck
and chest should be loosened.
The mouth should be kept open
and breathing through the nose
should be avoided.. The nose
should be firmly pinched just be-
low the hard part.
The nose should not be blown,
nor should it be plugged.
If the bleeding does not stop in
a reasonable time a doctor should
be consulted.
When the surgeon does a cor-
nealtransplant on the eye, he
uses tiny razor sharp needles to
cut out the defeetive part of the
cornea. Using tissue from a donor
e►e, he extracts the exact„ shape
and size of the defective piece
and sews it into the patient's cor-
nea. More than 50,000 Canadians
have pledged their eyes through
The Eye Bank of Canada.
our readers that telephone stick-

the telephone or in a prominent

partment, the town police or for
