Control Fire.

The season for greater use of fire
in buildings is approaching. Is your
whole heating plant such as to keep
the fire in thall?
Sound stoves, furnaces, boilers,
smokepipes and chimneys are nee
essary to do this.
All these become heated, some
times red-hot, and radiate heat in all
directions, and woodwork in contact
or near is always liable to be ignited.
In installing stoves, furnaces and
boilers provide clearance of at
least two feet above and on all sides.
If this clearance is not present, pro-
tect the exposed woodwork with met
al over one-quarter inch asbestos
board; metal alone is no protection,
as it readily heats through. Cover
the boiler with asbestos plaster, and
the top Of the furnace jacket with
sand Or other heat resisting mater
ials. Never neglect the metal stove
board to protect the floor and to
catch coal and ashes.
Keep a clear distance of one and
a half times the diameter of the
smokepipe between such pipe and the
joists and all wood or lath-and-plast-
er ceilings, and a distance equal to
the diameter of the smokepipe to
any wood work or lath-and-plaster
wall or partition on the side Where
such clearance is not present, put in
asbestos board and metal protection.
Woodwork in contact with cone
brick chimney spells danger, and
should be cut away and the space
filled in with asbestos or other heat
resisting materials.
A dirty chimney is always liable
to burn out and set your neighbor's
roof on fire.
ashes and fire proof ash bins or
store ashes in the open, away from
buildings and fences.
These cautions are simple Every
Intelligent citizen knows these facts;
he only eps--procrastinates This
procrastination costs the state near
ly two million dollars worth of prop
erty a year, and is responsible for
the loss of many lives. These dan
gers are present day and night and
a fire is quite as liable to occur at
night when the occupants of build
ings are in helpless sleep.

Regarding Hunting Licenses.

Hunting licenses cannot be issued
by county clerks until the full regu-
lar application form required by law
is filled out, the conservation COM
mission has declared in a recent
statement. The only exception is
where a man, identified personally
by the clerk. brings in his license for
the previous year, but in this case,
he must fill out and send in the ap-
plication blank later. The county
clerks are prohibited from issuing
licenses Of several members of a
family upon the personal application
of one member without the full num-
ber of proper applications being ex-
ecuted.

ROAD MATTERS CON-
SIDERED.

AT a regular Injecting VI thO ~
eral Point Commercial Club, held On
Monday evening, various matters per-
tanning to the welfare of the city
were talked over. THE principal
topic of the evening was road inn
provement. A committee of three
members of the Club was appointed
to wait on the County Road and
Bridge Committee to ascertain what
work is going to be done on the
Dodgeville Mineral Point highway
Just as it approaches this city, also
TO find out what is to be done in re-
gard to completing the grading on
the Miffiin road, and the surfacing OF
said road from what is known as the
Spensley corner to the top of the hill,
connecting with High street.
1t is a matter for congratulation
that a large amount of work is being
carried forward on several Of the
highways leading into Mineral Point.
Our Commercial Club has been a
strong factor in securing action In
the direction of road improvement.
The several committees appointed by
the Club to work with the Iowa
County Road and Bridge Committee
and the County Highway Commis-
sioner have been untiring in their
efforts for needed road improvement
and the work going on around about
us is largely the result of such efforts
Road improvements now under
way, and the projects nearly complet-
ed, may be noted as follows
The Schaaf hill road, southwest
from Mineral Point city-a long
needed improvement, which greatly
aids travel on Highway No. %.
The Mifflin Mineral Point road
wonderfully improved highway.
This was a county project which was
launched through the efforts of the
Commercial Club. The plan pro-
vided for the raising of certain sums
of money for the work from the peo-
pie of Mineral Point, the people of
Mifflin, and from others living along
the line of road to be improved.
The Dodgeville Mineral Point road
now practically completed, and of
great benefit not only to the cities
named. but to the people in every
portion of Iowa county as well.
The Darlington Mineral Point
road, on which large force of men
are now at work making relocations
and constructing bridges and culvefts
This road will be surfaced to the
county line with gravel and mime
tailings; and from the county line
the road work will be completed to
Darlington by Lafayette county.
There is encouragement in the well
founded belief that with us only a
beginning in road work has been
made, and that other road projects
in which the people hereabouts are
interested will be carried out not
later than during next year. A great
deal In the way OF highway construc-
ton has been going on this year in
iowa, Lafayette and Grant counties,
as wen as elsewhere throughout Wis
toTsfn. And may the good work go
ON. When the benefit of having good
roads is fully realized few people
viii be found who oppose road i'm
provenfent.
