The records of the fire department
of Louisville, Kentucky, which is said
to be city of about average risk,
show that out of two hundred and four
fires that occurred in that city in five
months, lightweight were caused by
defective f1ues. Many such fires can
be prevented by proper maintenance
of chimneys, and the logical time to
attend to the matter is in the fall,
preceding the season when fires are
most numerous and most intense.
A considerable saving in property
and in the cost of fire insurance might
be brought about by giving our Chin
neys good overhauling before winter
sets in. They should be cleaned, and
examined for defects, and needed re-
pairs should be made at once.
