Fire Losses and H. C. L.

Few people realize how directly the much dis cussed High Cost of Living" is influenced by Amer icas excessive fire waste. recent nationwide analysis fires and fire causes has shown enormous destruction of common staples. Single fires in ele- vators and mills frequently the equivalent of a living for a small army of people. For example, a recent blaze in Illinois rendered 100000 bushels of unfit for human food. and also de- sroyed 3O00O0 bushels of oats
 Grain elevators, flour, cereal grist and feed mills present well known clements of fire hazard in that they subject explosions of the highly explosive dust that results from handling milling grain. These disasters also cost many lives dust explosion in a Buffalo mill 1913 resulted in thirty fatal ites. short time ago the United States department of agriculture made study of the frequent explosions in grain separators in the Big Bend country of the northwest and found that in the height of the these reached from six ten day, the flame from such explosions a large number of spreading surrounding grain with destructive results.
 Individual barn fires add enormously to this total. Throughout of the country the of thun- der storms follows closely upon that of harvest and thousands barns stored potential food go up in flames each year because of lightning. These fires
 must be classed as largely preventable statistics compiled by actuarial of the national board of fire underwriters show that of the total fire loss from lightning, more than 92 per cent is found where lightning rods used
 The spontaneous combustion of hay and grain in poorly ventilated barns is another big factor which might largely be prevented by proper precautions.
 When such items added the fires in grain fields from locomotive sparks and from the matches of careless smokers it may be realized that vast of foodstuff is turned into clouds of snake instead of human bone and muscle. This inevitably has its effect upon the price of the remainder

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
Protest Against Waste of Grain

To the Editor of Ariz. Republican:
 The members of Trinity Guild are en- deavoring to do their bit toward fur thering the welfare of our nation, at this critical time in it's history.
 We hope through your convincing columns, that many other organizations and many individuals will decide to bring all the pressure they can to bear upon this vital question by sending similar protests to Washington.
 The members of Trinity Guild of Trinity Parish, Phoenix, Arizona at their meetine today passed the follow ing resolutions, to be sent to our Ari- zona representatives in the United States congress:
 Whereas, the United States congress is considering postponing the passage of the National Prohibition amendment in order to derive revenue from the li- quor traffic, and
 Whereas, the amount of grain con stunned in the manufacture of liquor is of vastly more value as a food, in the present world crisis, and Whereas, mothers are making a great | sacrifice in giving their sons to the cali of their country, and, Whereas. these young men, enlisting in their governments service, are sub | jected to great temptation through the l liquor evil, and
 | Whereas, other warning nations have found it expedient to remove this curse thus rendering their armies physically and morally more efficient to their na- l tions
 Now Therefore, Be It Resolved by tht members of Trinity Guild that we pro test against the raising of revenu, through the liquor traffic and urge tn, immediate passage of the national pro hibition amendment, by the congress o the United States, and that copies O these resolutions be forwarded to ou | representatives in congress with tn request that they do all in their powe 1 to further the passage of said amend ment

also that these things had been written about Him centuries before by the pro- phet Zechariah and they recalled that thev had done the very things Wnlch the prophet had predicted.
 II. The witnessing people and the envious Pharisees, 17-19. There had been a large company of people pres ent when Jesus called Lazarus out ol his tomb and raised him from the dead. These testified to what they had seen on that occasion and made clear now the Lord Jesus had proved Ills DiVlne power, and thus made it plain that lie was the Messiah. The testimony of these eye witnesses to the Divine power of Jesus had great weight with the null titude and brought them out to meet the One wno .couId do such woudrous works The enthusiasm of the popu- lace for Jesus made the hatred Of the Pharisees all the more intense. They saw the crowd forsaking them and fol- lowing the One they envled and hated They murmured one to another, Be hold how ye prevail nothing" Their unwilingness to admit that it was personal defeat is seen in that they said, Behold how ye prevail nothIngi
 instead of. Behold how we prevail nothing" In this there is a real touch 7 They were forced to admit that for the time the world had gone after Him. But alasl it was for very short time that the world went after Him. The world aS whole has rejected Him down to the present day, but there is a time coming, of which this day was only a ! fore glimpse, when all the nations of the earth will acknowledge His Lord ship and go after Him (Rev. Il: 15.) If you had been there would you have
 sided with the enthusiastic crowd, CT with the enviOus Pharisees? It some
 times seems to me as if l would have l liked to have bee nthere and to have had some little part in this one days
 triumph, brief though it was. But there is coming another day of per
 manent thiumph and we may have part
 in it if we will, and until that glad day
 comes, we can herald Him as King ir our faithful testimony to a Christ re- | jecting world, and as the disciples an6 multitude paved the way before Hin
 on that day with their palm branches and their garments, we can pave the way before Him which acts of kindness to those who need them (Mat. 25 35-40.)

 Florence, Ariz., April 23, 1917 The Arizona Republican,

 Gentlemen:
 I notice in your valuable paper of 18th inst. an editorial on "The farmer and his new friends" You quote from Wall Street Journal to the effect that average farmers greatest need is fi- nanciaL" This is especially true in poorly equipped communities such as this valley of Pinal county; in addition to great financial stress is the urgent need of better irrigating facilities. More of the water daily flowing by us, and better distribution of it. In your To cal Outlook" you touch upon the abun- dance of the water supply for Salt River valley and it's ability thereby to produce. That is as it should be-due appreciation of the good fortune that has blest the valley; still lavish as has been the expenditure of millions of government money in Salt River valley and fine as your equipment is and par donable as is your pride in it, yet us- ing to the very utmost all your many resources and advantages of money and water, brains, brawn and energy, you will still be unable alone to meet the needs and demands of our own nation, It's army and navy and the feeding of it's home workers to say nothing of the | needs of other nations. Would it not seem patriotic duty to give a little time and space to a consideration of the needs of neighboring valley which has not received such large benefits and to urge what might be done quick : ly and reasonably for the relief and ad = vantage of it's less fortunate citizens |? Now that congress has made us au appropriation for a diversion dam, sup 1 pose you urge the early construction and completion of it. It will be very modest equipment compared to Roose- welt but of incalcuable aid to the suf- ferers of this valley, now that there is neither time nor money for a more ex- . l tended enterprise. We might be able to feed ourselves and have considerable left over instead of Having a good part Continued on Page F'ive)
