In the full and early winter special attention should be paid to stove pipes, furnace pipes, smoke vents and fines.

There is special need of unusually careful attention to fines, smoke- stacks and heating apparatus gener- ally this season, because of the ab- normal fuel conditions. Millions of householders will be compelled to use soft coal who have heretofore used hard coal, and the change will neces- sarily introduce many serious fire hazards, unless great care is taken to see that lines and smoke-pipes are kept clear and that proper safeguards are provided for the other dangers which will develop. Fires due to faulty furnace pipes and smoke piper: have been unusual- ly numerous this season, especially where (here was dampness. When the surface was already corroded by the heat and fumes the dumpness soon rusted the metal so that u pipe which looked all right on the outside would collapse wlth the slightest strain. The danger of such pipes in basements, often near wooden partl- tious and ceilings is evident, but only an inspection woul reveal the lnterlgl' weakness. 525?
