TELLS HOW TO PROVIDE
FARM BINS FOR WHEAT

Farmers in sections where the acre
age of wheat is unusually large are
urged by the Department of Agricul-
ture to provide enough bins on the
farm to take care of their wheat when
threshed. This is said to be necessary
to save the wheat that will probably
pile up in certain localities, because
the large crop is likely~to put a heavy
strain on storage elevators and trans
portation systems. The wheat should
be stored in bins on the farm, accord
ing to the Bureau of Markets, which
has issued a circular containing plans
and drawings for a portable bin that
can be quickly built. Copies of this
circular have been distributed to
county agents throughout the large
wheat-producing sections.

have increased our supply of pork and
an economical expansion of the use of
this product is advisable at this time.

!22ktlglpsA:
GREATLY REDUCES FIRE RISK
Advantage Of standardizino Fire-Hose
i Couplings Quickly Perceived by
"'.5 up.To.Date Communities.

An association was formed In an
Ohio city recently with the idea Of
standardizing the firehose couplings in
the district, and it was found that
some of the odd.size hose couplings
could be changed to standard at small
expense by means Of taps and dies
furnished free by the inspection bu-
reau, reports Country Gentleman. It
also was ascertained that by means Of
adapters couplings in other cities
could be made; but in some towns the
size was prohibitive. Now other CO.
operative associations are being FORM
ed that are reaching out into Penn
sylvania, Kentucky, Indiana and West
Virginia, and demands for the taps
and dies have come from Texas and
New Jersey.
The cooperative idea not only takes
in the waterworks towns, but also the
smaller places, and the chiefs Of the
several cooperative units have can
vassed their districts so that now they
know not only what equipment to
send in case of urgent call. but the
available water supply. the state Of the
roads and the construction and char
acter of the buildings to be worked up
on. AS most of the Ohio equipment is
now motorized. remarkable time is
made in getting to towns where there
is no fire-fighting equipment at all but
where a powerful combination chem
ical truck could handle blaze salts
factorily. Many Of the chiefs Of vol
unteer organizations are now visiting
the headquarters of the city depart
ments and gaining practical expert.
ence at first-hand in actually fighting
fire. in discipline and in care of equip.
ment. Towns finding that they can
not have assistance, by reason OF
odd-size couplings, are ordering all
new standard equipment and are, OF
course, changing their hydrants to con-
form to the standard code.
The value of the city and interurban
cooperative, eel-within-a-wheel idea
is that in many cases the town or rural
equipment would master the fire; but
if it could not. the next nearest large
place could rush the proper parapher-
MALTA to the scene, either over good
roads or by special train, either steam
or electric. The idea Of interurban and
rural protection is about to take an
other leap forward. and the plan is
this: Ohio and many other states are
spiderwebbed with trolley lines. Suit
able tank cars, carrying chemical
equipment, pumps and 1000 or more
feet of hose could be held in reserve
at terminal points and rushed, day or
night, to the nearest point to fire. In
q fire a second lost may make for
eternity.
