FOUR PERCENT OF ALI. DAMAGING HOME FIRES orig
mate in the kitchen as the result of burning fat in the broier, skill
let or griddle. How many Of you know how to tackle this common
type of fire? BY rights you should have an approved fire extn-
guisher for "ClaSs B" ~(dammable liquid fires within easy reaching
distance of the range, as recommended by the National Fire Pro-
lection Association. If you haven't, the Baking Soda Institute sug-
geStS you at least take the precaution of having a good supply of
inexpensive baking soda on hand. Baking soda, which is the major
ingredient of several types of fire extinguishers, is excellent for
such a fire. Applying the baking soda carefully on the flames
creates carbon dioxide or carbonic acid gas which shuts off the air
and smothers the flames. Never use salt or flour in place of soda.
They'll only make matters worse and never, never use water.
Water has a lower boiling point than ft, and it will only make the
fire spread and the fat splatter. It's a wise precaution to keep a
clearly labeled canister filed with baking soda on the kitchen
range SO that when and if you're faced with fire you can reach
the soda quickly.
. Another advantage to using baking soda on fat fires is that
1t won't harm food. You've all taken baking soda at one time or
another for the emergency aid of acid indigestion. So just wash
ue 1000 on, II 1t wasn't too badly burned, and it's ready to serve.
