STORAGE OF SOFT COAL.
Fire Hazards Which Should Be Care
fully Watched BY Property
Owners,

Where large quantities of soft coal
being stored by mercantile establish
ments and industries because of the
fear of a fuel shortage during the
winter. The danger of spontaneous
combustion in this causes a serious
fire hazard, and unusual care should
be exercised by the owners of such
properties. The hazard can be re-
duced by proper selection of the
grades and sizes of soft coal, and the
exercise of proper precautions in its
handling and storage.
Where lareg quantities of soft coal
are stored in the open it should be in
separate piles, so that fire starting
will not spread through the entire
supply, and the affected pile can be
extinguished or moved. Where the
coal is stored in Easements the fuel
administration suggests the follow
ing precautions:
l. Coal the size of walnut or
larger is well adapted for storing.
Mine run, slack or screenings, on &C
count Of fine coal and dust, are not
suited for storage in a basement.
2. Never place coal near a hot
pipe, against a hot furnace or any
other hot surface.
3. Do not mix ashes with the ccal,
as there may be live Goals in the
ashes. y 49,.
4. If coal must be wet down, wet
only the portion that is to be used
| Immediately.
5. It is very important that pieces
of waste, oily rags, sticks, paper and
other rubbish should not be mixed,
or allowed to come in contact with
the coal. -, >.
6. Special attention should be paid
to the proper cleaning of fues and
chimneys regularly.

1t is interesting to note how
quickly a baseball season is forgot
ten. Three weeks ago Martinsburg
was existing at a point of high ex-
element, the Blue Sox having won
without question two days before
the league championship, and be-
ing on the verge of series with
Parksley for the fve-state title. In
the latter series she soon showed
her superior strength Excitement
ran high throughout the Blue Ridge
season and the post-league series.
There probably was no other single
interest 10 compare with it as re-
CARDS the public attention. Then
came the end. Martnsburg was the
winner en- all sides. The fans felt
satisfied and they turned to other
interests the big league race and
football in the field of sports. APP
parently they have forgotten it com.
pletely by this time. There is no
more discussion. Certainly it is a
pleasant and comfortable memory,
and will remain so; but as for per-
sistant discussion, it is not. Three
weeks sees the passing of a ire
mendous interest. After all base
hall cannot compare with those con-
Germs and interests whose grip is
ever upon us, with which We have
to live day in and day out. Baseball
and the sports as a whole are, in
the final analysis, decidedly side Is
