Drr. 'Weather Preparedness

S- the dry season advances the fire hazard in all classes of risks naturally increases, and in none more so than those dealing in lumber. Every month in the year, it is true, carries its toll of - preventable fires, but none more so than the summer months, due largely, we believe, to underestimating the ease with which fires start and the rapidity with which they spread during the dry period.

Many fires have occurred in the past, and it is to be regretted that more will doubtless occur in the future. However, forewarned is forearmed, and you, as the prudent property owner, realizing the truth of the old adage, will take unusual steps to prevent the destruction of your property, serving as a warning to the others.
