Fire Precautions.

A large part of the fire waste of this
country is directly due to untidy con-
ditions and other faults of management.
Heavy loss naturally increases cost of
insurance. A careful inspection of your
entire premises daily will assist in
bringing about a lower insurance cost,
says the Merchants Magazine.
Ashes should be kept in metal recep-
tacles and never in paper or wooden
barrels or boxes.
Oily rags or waste should be kept in
standard metal waste cans and contents
removed and burned each night
Rubbish should never be allowed to
accumulate in buildings.
Spittoons should be made of metal
and never contain sawdust or other com
bustible material.
Gasoline, naphtha and other volatile
oils should not be kept in building.
(Note city ordinance concerning its
use).
Gas brackets should have stiff fix
lures; where necessary to use swinging
brackets all exposed woodwork should
be protected with sheet metal, leaving
an air space Metal bells should be
placed over gas Jets on low ceilings.
nuOuAu NC htpl CltdI lIoHl
all wood and other combustible material
Open fue holes should be protected
with sheet iron or, better, be bricked
up.
Electricity lamp cords should not be
used.
Stove pipes should be run direct tc
brick chimneys and never through floors
or partitions; protect floor under and
above stoves with brick, cement or sheet
metal.
Stairways should be kept clear at al
times; never place any stock or shelving
on.stairs.
Aisles of good width should be main
tanned at all times; never pile stock
in front of windows or against doors
as it handieaps the fremen in case Of
fire.
Fire doors and shutters should be clos
ed every night, and stock should never
be placed so as to hinder the ready clos
ing of these fire stops.
Third. Replacing knob and tube con
struction, wherever possible, with con
duit This is becoming standard 70
most American cities and in bette
construction abroad.

That bountiful crop production is
very closely associated with what we
understand as "good times" and pros
perity may be realized in the case of
the two leading products of the coun-
try-corn and cotton. The value of
the first in round numbers for 1910
was $1,000, 100000, which is said to be
sufficient to pay the interest bearing
debt of the United States and exceed
by a considerable value all the gold
and silver dug out of the earth in the
year 1909. The value of the cotton
crop for the year just past is placed
at 5000, 900, which would be enough
to just about wipe out the national
debt When these and numerous other
crops aggregating values correspond
ingly large are produced from the soil
of the United States annually it is re-
allied the more readily why our coun
try is one of the wealthiest and most
prosperous in all the earth.

Seventh Annual Session Ended Sunday
At Birmingham. Ala.


Birmingham, Ala, March 13.-The
seventh annual session of the National
Child Labor conference ended Sunday
night at a meeting at which the prin-
cipal speakers were DR.. Felix Adler of
New York, and Miss Jane Adams Of
Chicago
The work of the conference was di-
rected mainly to securing uniform child
labor laws. A vigorous plan also was
proposed for prohibiting child labor
on the stage.
"fThe battle for the child and foi
the interests of civilization which are
jeopardized by the premature employ
ment of children in industry is not YET
won,' declared DR.. Adler, who is chair
man of the national child labor com
mittee. He then made a strong pies
for "the south to come to the rescue
of the child fhe speaker declared
however, that progress was being made
though with uneven acceleration, il

A Salesman.

A Salesman
(From The Gimlet.)
When the train pulls in and you grab
your grip,
And the hackman s there with his fray
edout whip,
You call on your man and try to be
gay,
And all you get is: "Nothing doing
today
Then you re Peddler,
By Cad, you re a Peddlerl
When you get into town and call on
your man,
Can you see any, Bill2" "Why, sure
can.
You size up his stock-make a rough
count,
And "Bil" presently says: "Send the
usual amount.
Then you re an Ordertaker,
By Cad, you IRE an Ordertakerl
When you travel along and everything S
fine,
And you don't get up till half-past
When you see each concern and talk con
ditions
And write it all home, with many add
tions,
Then yon re a Travelingman,
By Cad, you re a Travelingmanl
When you call on the trade and they
talk "hard tines
Glover prices" and "decided de-
cline';
But you talk and you smile-make the
world look bright
And send in your orders every-night,
Then you re Salesman,
