That charring was probably caused by the intense heat radiated Drink 7-- Up 1 by s smokepipe or part of the furnace or stove nearby. Engineers of the National Board of Fire Underwriters state that such conditions present a very great fire hazard, especially during severe cold weather, when heating equipment is run at fall capacity. Official records indicate that 10 per cent of the total fire loss in the United States is caused by heating equipment Burnable materials placed too close to the equipment account for a large portion of this loss. Different kinds of heaters require varying distances between the hot metal and woodwork. The old type of stoves that glow red hot should be set at least three feet from bum-abl- e materials. More modem stoves, with an outer covering of metal permitting the air to circulate between this outer shell and the actual fire box, require a one-foclearance, as does the domestic type of lincooking stove ahving a fire-cla- y ing and a water jacket. Experience indicates that even solid masonry is poor insulation against contiuous high temperature and that circulation of air is needed to prevent dangerous heat from being conveyed to bum-abl- e materials. Attention should be given to the clearance above heating devices as well as at the front, sides, and rear; also to smokepipes, range hoods, warm , air pipes and .registers and in steam and hot water pipes fact any device or apparatus that may give off heat at sufficiently high temperatures to ignite combustible materials. All hot water and low pressure steam heating boilers hsould be covered with asbestos insulation. The smokepipe is a great source of danger and every effort 'should be made to protect adjacent combustible ceilings,' beams and partitions from its radiated hat. Following these simple instructions may save your home and the lives of loved ones.

Following its surveys it has made exhaustive reports to Congress . concerning the feasibility and practicability of the projects. In many instances, it has offered the opinion, supported by statistics and a wealth of factual information, that various projects are impractical from an engineering standpoint or, from a business standpoint, could not be expected to justify their cost. During the last few years some of the projects the army engineers warned against have been started for political reasons and often public officials In charge, in an effort to laugh off the engineers reports, A better foundation for workmans compensation insurance and public security was recently forecast by William Leslie, associate general of the National Bureau of manager PHONE 444 LOGAN, UT. Casualty and Surety Underwriters. Mr. Leslie based his prediction on two assumptions: That enw rating programs, recently endorsed by the National Convention of Insurance Commissioners, will be accepted and approved by individua tslate authorities wjien filed; and that future costs for occupational diseases will develop normally. The hope for a normal development in occupational disease costs", Mr. Leslie declared, lies in recognizing the necessity of providing 5 MODERN RADIO SET ANALYZERS Equipment Includes compensation for such diseases by means of separate legislation which C Work Done by A. W. LLOYD, Radio Engineer of Chicago, Illinois takes into account the distinctive of the problem involved. character AT MONTROSES In principle, it is just as proper to 999-33 Federal Ave. Phone Logan compensate for occupational disease as it is for industrial accidents, provided it is done on a basis which permits a proper determination of the true facts in the case, and which does pot create a prohibitive cost, particularly as respects the accumulated liability . for diseases of the slow, progressive type such as silicosis. In reviewing the. history of workmens compensation from an insurance veiwpoint, Mr. Leslie said: The past record of business has been exceedingly bad. The underwriting lasses have been staggering, averaging 12 per cent of premiums for stock inusrance carriers and aggregating well over $150,000,000. Failure to secure adequate rates, rising medical and indemninty costs, fluctuating wage levels, and the tendo dency to make compensation insurance serve double duty as unemployment insurance, are important causes fo rthis unsatisfactory experience. The successful handling of workmens compensation insurance as a ! business requires a constructive attitude on the part of the carriers ' and a cooperative attitude on the part of employers, Mr. Leslie continued. The unfortunate experience of the past has made the executives of stock casualty companies unwil(Bundle Size of 17 Sheets Average Weekly Wash) ling to accept at face value mere predictions that the path is now clear and everything in the futyre is going to be rosy.

THROUGH COOPERATION An interesting example of what agricultural cooperatives can achieve, when well managed and loyally supported, is presetned by the Dairy- mens League Cooperative Associa- tion of New York, a pioneer in the . Eastern field. Due to the aggressive, constructive work of the organization, milk prices did not tumble in the Leagues area until about a year after the values of other farm products had slumped heavily. And when, under the pressure of great economic forces, the milk price structure did crumble, the League didnt take time out for a crying paty, but at once went to work to remedy conditions. The result of that is found in the fact that, according to November reports, the milk price is practically back to the level of November 1931, before the worst of the depression hit the milk shed. Th's doesnt mean that the troubles are over for League members. The League will continue to work toward effecting a better balance between the cost of milk and other costs. In the light of past experience, it is not too much to forecast that these efforts will likewise succeed. Other farm dealing in all manner of commodities, have shown similiar records. This is not due to luck it is the consequence of knowledge, of enthusiasm, of hard work, and of faith in the coaperatives by members.
