Farmers Urged To
Check Barn Fires

A four point program to save
barns from destruction by fire dur
ing November was suggested by
County Agent VIM. H. Henderson.
Mr.. Henderson said that accord
ing to figures released by the Fire
Protection Institute, approximately
1,500 barns in the United States
were either damaged or destroyed
by fire in November, 1947. BY
taking a few simple precautions
and installing approved fire ex-
tinguisheTs, much of this loss could
be prevented.
Farmers who adopt the following
fOur-pOint program can reduce the
chance of fire 80 to 80 per cent, he
said:
1. Keep barns clean. Make sure
rubbish is not allowed to ac-
cumulate in or around build
ings.
2. Check all electrical wiring.
See that switches operate
properly and no wiring has
been stripped of it's insula-
ton.
3. Have adequate fire protection.
Most fires start small; if ap-
proved fire extinguishers are
handy, you can put out fires
before they get out of con-
troll.
4. Store flammable liquids in
safe areas. Make certain fam
mable liquid is placed in seal
ed containers and out of reach
of children and animals.

Blood Center Planned
for Montana

A BLOOD CENTER where blood
supplies will be gathered from vol
unteer donors and kept for free dis
tribution for all cases needing blood
or blood derivatives for treatment
will be established in Montana soon
after July /, according to J. M.
Mjolsness, state Red Cross relations
officer. Location of the center has
not yet been determined.
The center is the first of a num-
Der planned for the state and is one
of the first of from 800 to 400 to be
established in the nation under the
national Red Cross program. 1t will
be financed by national Red Cross
funds but will be a locally admin
istered enterprise.
According to the plan, each center
will serve an T e which may in
clude several adjacent counties. Most
of the blood will be used within the
center area from which it is drawn.
Surplus blood will be sent to lab
o~ratories for processing into valuable
derivatives such as:
Serum albumen for shock and GER
tain kidney diseases, immune serum
globulin for modification or proven
ton of measles, antihemophilic glo-
bulin for treatment of hemophiliacs,
blood grouping serum for determin-
ing blood types, fibrin films and
thrombin for use in
gerry, red cell suspensions for treat
ing certain anemic conditions and
