EXPERTS GIVE ADVICE ON
HOW TO AVOID DUST FIRES

Scientific advice to farmers and
millmen on the subject of dust ex-
ploslons and the avoidance of danger
from smutty wheat was given this
afternoon at a meeting at the Cosy
theater by H. II. Brown. Of the L. $
Bureau of chemistry and George L.
zundell of the state college at Pull
man, Wash.
Mr.. zundell brought out the fact
that during 1917 through plant dis
ease. chiefly smut, the wheat damage
in the United States was 81 million
bushels.
The talk by DR.. Brown was direct
ed to milling men. warehouse men
and thresher operators. In part he
said:
From March. 1915, through the
fall of 1917 there were five disas-
trous explosions resulting in the de-
struction OF $4,000. 900 worth of PROB
erty, loss of Sc lives and injury to
over so men. As a result of these eX-
plosions and fires there was loss
of over 1000. 600 bushels of grain and
a considerable quantity of sugar Un-
der the present war conditions the
country cannot afford to have any OF

Among the causes which have been

heat developed by friction.
