Reducing Fire Danger.

The fire hazard should be considered
In the location and construction Of all
new farm buildings. Many groups Of
farm buildings are SO located and con-
structed that any fire which might
break out In one building would be
almost sure to destroy the whole
group. When new building Is to be
erected 1t is worth while at least to
consider placing 1t where 1t will be
reasonably safe from fire starting In
any other building and where 1t win
not be menace to other buildings.
Concrete construction Is being used
on many farms, and 1t Is especially
desirable for smokehouses, incubator
rooms, and any other small buildings
which are exceptionally subject to loss
by fire. The first cost of a well-con-
structed concrete building generally
viii be greater than that of wood
building Of the same size, but the con-
crete will last practically forever, and
will seldom need paint or repairs.
A fire in such a building can do but
slight damage to the building itself.
and there Is very little likelihood Of
Its spreading to amy Of the adjoining
buildings.

CORN A CHAMPION CROP

Corn, on a given area, will pro-
duce more human food than any
other crop commonly growL on
American farms. This crop
heads the list In units Of energy
produced per acre, and is ahead
Of all other crops except navy
beans and soy beans In tissue
building material. In the latter
element soy beans far outclass
all other crops, showing nearly
twice as much protein per acre
as navy beans, which, rank Sec
ond in this regard.
The dairy COW is the most eff
cient Of farm animals In the pro-
duction Of human food (milk)
and the hog Is the most efficient
In the conversion Of grain into
meat, producing five times as
much per acre Of crops as does
any other animal.
These facts and others are
told In the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture's Farmers
Bulletin ST., "Human Food
From an Acre Of Staple Farm
Products" which gives an acre
for-acre comparison Of the food
value Of various crops and an
imal products.

These are not all the publications Of
the department. During the war q
number of circulars and pamphlets
having a direct bearing on winning
the struggle are being issued. Then
there are the professional bulletins,
dealing in less popular form with re-
searches into the science of agricul-
ture. In addition there are several
serial publications and the annual re-
ports and other congressional publica-
tions, including the department year
book and reports Of soil surveys.
The policy of reducing In size and
making more readable has been ex-
tended through all these classes.
Lists Of available bulletins, from
which selections can be made, will be
sent to interested persons on request
