ments at creston today State Fire
Marshal James A. Tracy told of the
dangers in the use OF Easolene. H,
said that thirty-two deaths resulted
In Iowa last year from gasolene ex-
plosions or fire due to Easolene.
Marshal Tracy explained that Il Is
the gas created when sasolene is
permitted to stand in an open vessel
that causes the explosions. He said
that In dry cleaning establishments
electric motors in the same room
where gasolene was used are par
ticularly dangerous, as the spark
from motor might at any time
touch on the gas which is bound to
collect when gasolene Is left exposed
to the air.
He said explosions have been
caused by q spark resulting when q
mail in the heel of the shoe In con-
tact with cement floor came ir
contact with small quantity OF gas
The carelessness of many people
in the use Of gasolene is criminal
Marshal Tracy held, and since 1t has
como into such general use fatal ac-
cidents from gasolene explosions are
common. People give stick Of
dynamite q wide berth, he said. but
one gallon OF gasolcne vaporized hal
an explosive power equal to eighty
three pounds Of dynamite.

ment has been giving considerable
attention to lightning fires In recen,
weeks. He always receives many re-
ports of lightning fires during the
haying season. Last season Their.
