Preventing Fires
Helps War Effort,
Sullivan Cautions
Every resident of the Unitedi
States can pro-mote this country‘s}
war preparations by constantly',
being on the alert to prevent the;
destruction of property by fire, it[
is pointed out by William A. Sul-l
livan, Insurance Commissioner of'
Washington. Mr. Sullivan. who is;
also State Fire Marshal. was a|
visitor in Shelton Tuesday. ‘
“With serious shortages exist-i
ing in many materials needed for“
the war effort." he said, "it is
vital that all Citizens do every-
thing possible to preVent suchl
shortages from becoming worsel
through the destruction of our re-i
sources by fire.
“A case in point was the de-l
struction by fire late last year of
15,800 tons of rubber at Fall Riv—l
er, Massachusetts. Our chief“
sources of rubber supply have,
since been closed to us. That ‘.5,-'
800 tons would have equipped a}
vast quantity of essential motor-
ized equipment with the neces—
sary tires. ‘
“In January an addition to the,
arsenal at Springfield, l‘dassachu-?
setts, was seriously damaged by}
fire. The addition, which was un—i
der construction, was to have
been used for increased manufac—
ture of rifles for the armed for-.
ces. As a result of the fire, it will
be three months or more before?
the production of rifles at thisl
point can be increased.
“The fire at the Springfield Ar- ‘,
serial resulted from the careles:—;-‘
ness of a workman, who knockedj
over a fire pot, setting fire to a:
tarpaulin, which ignited scaffold-l
ing and ultimately engulfed the
building.
“Whether the property destroy-
ed is an arsenal or only a pri-
vate home, the material required
to replace it could be used to bet-
ter advantage in advancing war
production. By constantly guard-

Farm Management. ,

meetings held last week, reports
County Agent Clinton Okerstrom.
5 An abundance of good quality
forage is the basis of the dairy‘
’industry forrlac-k of it increases;
duction of dairy products is not
.feasible, it was pointed out. ,
Dairymen are now beginning to j
realize the necessity and desirabil-
ity of conserving green feed in
the form of silage, Okerstrom.
said.
Many reasons for conservingl
forage in this form can be given:
Equality forage.
3. Distributes labor over
Seasons.
4. Conserves space.
5. More total digestible nutri—
ents produced per acre.
l 6. Less labor and cost involved
in the production of such mater—
ial.
l 7. Home production of protein
feed. .
, 8. Less soil leaching due to the
I permanent crop.
A number of Mason County
l dairymen are now using this prac- i
ltice to produce more and better
quality forage.
lthree years and reseeding is well
i demonstrated by a 15—year-old
pasture on the Hunter Bros. place .
This 15- I

year-old stand of pasture is bet-
ter than many first year plant-
: ings. It stands to reason that with ,
grass being a native of this area
I and a problem in cultivated fields,
x. that the older the stand
‘thicker it gets. Thick stands of
grass ,keep down weeds, poor
stands do not. Proper fertility,
however, is essential in maintain-
ing a stand of grass.
A desirable practice of seeding
red clover and alfalfa together
was pointed out at the Ted Rich—
ert place. The red clover lasts
labout three years and the alfal-
[fa is well established by that
! time.
More farmers might find a
value in these practices on their
