for the individual person. The ex-
hibits of last year were highly COM

Fires Put Huge Tax on RmulLite

lion and a half tons of cotton at cents a
pound would go up in smoke if the loss were
estimated in terms of this material
These things illustrate what the fire loss
means. To overcome as much of this waste as
possible, the Department of Agriculture is
working especially among the young people of
the All Clubs in order to impress upon them
the need for care and the advantage of adopt
ing fire extingushing measures which will hold
losses to the minimum Community fire de-
partments, fire-hghting equipment always in
good shape and at strategic points, proper in
spections to that infiammable waste matter
does not accumulate where fire might break out
and other such preventive measures are being
proposed that this unnecessary drain upon
the farm income may be avoided.
Evening star., 1932-07-10

NNE loss which agriculture is forced to bear
~ each year which could largely be avoided
takes $1e0 900 away from farms themselves
and another 1000 900 from rural communi-
ties OF $500 or less population. AT the same
time, $500 people lose their lives.
This huge tax on rural life is the annual
levy Of the fire demon, a loss which in large
part could be eliminated If proper precaution-
airy steps are taken. OF course, the loss is not
borne entirely by the owners of the property
destroyed for much of it is insured, but when
no fire occurs, the insurance premium itself is
a heavy outlay annually, largely because the fire
loss REQUIRES rates high enough to protect the
Insurance companies against disaster.
An example of what the fire loss means is
cited by the Department of Agriculture in the
case Of Oregon. The loss in 1880 averaged
$ls35 per capita, or nearly three times the per
capita tax Of the State Government
When this fire loss is quoted in terms of
wheat dairy products, hogs, cotton and other
farm products, it assumes alarming propor-
tions. When wheat sold for 81 so bushel, the
percentage of the loss was not so high, but with
wheat at As cents the story is entirely different
For instance, it would require roughly, 200 000,-
600 bushels of wheat to pay the loss at current
prices OF wheat on the farms alone or 520,-
600 900 bushels to pay for the entire rural loss
If hogs were used TO pay the loss 1t would re-
quire 65, 100000 pounds OF live hog. Two mil
