Most fires from sparks could be prevented. The danger lies not so much in the spark itself as in the place on which it falls. Falling in rubbish, dry grass or shavings, it is almost certain to cause a fire. Reduce hazard from your own sparks by spark arresters on your stacks. Fight the outside spark by keeping your yard and plant clean. Starve out the spark wherever it falls.

The mission of Lumber Mutual fnsurance is to provide specialized protection to the lumber industry, to prevent fire in every possible way, to pay losses fairly and promptly, and to reduce insurance cost.
