The Uncompahgre Valley offers no
exception to the general proposition
that livestock must form the basis of
"A permanent agriculture.
The Valley Needs Livestock
Much of the soil of the Uncom-

tility should be maintained: but a
great deal of the soil is not highly
productive and this part needs to be
built up. For both purposes live
stock must be used for the quickest
and most positive results.
Transportation difficulties between
the Uncompahgre Valley and any

CBy Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 26.-Slicing
off at least 100000, which is one
third of the annual fire loss in Indi-
ana, is expected to result from the
program of establishing permanent
fire prevention committees of citizens
in HoOsier cities and towns by New

ready such committees have been or
ganized in Indianapolis and Evans
Vile and the state fire marshal ex-
poets to establish committees in Fort
Wayne and KOkOmO yet this month.
His program includes every Indiana
city and town.
IN 10 months period this year in
indianapolis the sire loss was reduced
by $511,174, this being a "a percent
decrease in fire loss for this city. The
10 months activity of the permanent
fire prevention committee in Indian
apolis is used as a basis for formulate
ing the extensive fire prevention pro
gram for the whole state.
Other cities in the state can &C
complish the same results as the fire

ton committees during the next five
years should reduce fire losses in this
state to a minimum the state fire
marshal adds. Since the announce
ment of the program for fire proven
ton committees in Indiana cities the
has received many letters
asking that such committees be or
gained in the localities Of the writ
ers of these letters.
This unusual cooperation will re
suit in tremendous drive for reduced
fire losses. Last years losses exceed
ed by more than $368,0O0 the total
paid for state taxes so it can be seen
that stimulation of fire prevention
work is the solution of this problem
of fire waste. Since the fact is evi-
dent that IS percent of all fires are
due to Carelessness, the work of the
fire prevention committees in various
communities will bring unusual re-
suits. Activity of the department S
legal staff in cooperation with offic-
ials in various parts of the state has
resulted in a marked reduction of ars-
on. In fact the record of nine con
victions out of every 10 persons tried
for arson in Indiana during the past
five years shows what constant activ-
ity against this type Of fires has
brought about"

Chicago's Fight on Fire Hazards

All battalion chiefs of the Chicago fire de-
partment will hereafter carefully inspect possible
firetraps in their districts, order cleaning up OF
easements and lofts and note every fire hazard
that may cause a costly blaze.
This is one of the results of a careful survey
of the fire hazard situation in that city, and
came after many lives were lost in a fireworks
factory last summer.
Chicago intends to fight fires by preventing
them. and to attain this object its battalion
chiefs have been ordered to see that collections
of cOmbustible materials are removed.
This is an approved and excellent manner to
prevent costly blazes. If possible causes of fire
are removed, it is reasonably sure that fire will
not break out, or that it will be easily checked
after it has gotten under way.

has lost plant or store by a fire. which could

Instructing Children How TO Use Mails

The preparation Of a textbook instructing
children how to use the mails will be welcomed
by most teachers and parents, many of whom
have their own doubts about many postal regu
lations.
A committee of the Minnesota Educational
association is working on the book, which has
received the approval of Postmaster Hays, who
will give his departments authorization to use
the books in the schools.
Lack Of knowledge of how to use the mails
costs the government millions annually. I'm
properly addressed letters and packages, and
mistakes made in postal money orders and reg
istered mail matter are a form of constant
trouble to the postal employees.
If the citizens realized the value and neces-
sity Of doing these things correctly, their mail
would be delivered promptly, and the department
would be saved much money.
Our carelessness and ignorance are respon-
sible for the presence of many clerks in the post
offices who try to decipher what we meant when
we wrote and seek to know where the letter or
package is to go.
If writer's of letters would learn one thing,
namely to address letters properly and correctly,
the post office would consider itself blessed, to
say nothing of its happiness if other forms of
errors were corrected and remedied.
