Lanterns in the Barn.

1t has been estimated that about
nine-tenths of the fires are caused
by carelessness of one sort OF announcer
Now that the days are shorter II Is
often necessary to use a light in the
stable for milking, and farmers shoula
insist that their help never light
lamp or lantern of any kind in the
barn. Smokers should also be ruled
out Lanterns should be filled, lighted
and trimmed during the day time In
the house or some out building apart
from the barn. Lanterns that do not
burn we'll should never be looked after
inside the barn. The temptation is
often great on the part of the hired
man to strike a match in the barn to
relight the lantern when it is extin-
guished. 1t is always best in such
cases to feel the way out OF the barn
to a place of safety rather than to run
any unnecessary risks. 1t is often
problem to find a convenient place
to put the lantern in the stable. 1t
should never be set on the foor, anu
it is more or less dangerous to place
it on shelf where cats will be liable
to rub against it for the sake OF lts
congenial warmth. String wire TO
the floor joists back of the cows or
horses from which hang long wire
hooks at convenient intervals, and in
sist upon it that the lantern shall be
hung up as long as it remains in tbs
stable. We have known farms so
careless as to keep oil lamps in their
barns and even to fill them there while
the wicks were lighted. Such risks
should never be taken even tho the
buildings are we'll insured
