Miss Colwell Stresses
Safety In Kitchens
“A place for everything and every- .
thing in its place is a primary re
quisite in the kitchen,” says Miss, 1
Rebecca Colwell, home demonstration
agent for the State College Exten
sion Service.
At this season of the year, she says,
the farm kitchen is one of the bus
iest places on the farm with the
preparation of meals for extra farm
workers, A little extra care will pre
vent many costly accidents.
A safe step-stool should be a part
of the working equipment of every
farm kitchen. This makes it unneces
sary to use boxes or chairs for reach
ing high places. Each step should be
wide enough to stand upon, including
the top step, and the surfaces should
be non-skid or roughened so that
there Will be no slipping.'
The National Safety Council cau
tions that pan handles be turned away ;
from the front of the stove. Cover!
scalding liquids before carrying them !
and use a cloth or pad to lift them.
Keep knives and matches out of child- j
ren’s reach. Don't use gasoline or
kerosene to start fires, keep all dry j
cleaning operations out of the house, i
check stovepipes and flues regularly,
store all medicines, insecticides and
drugs away from the kitchen where
children cannot! reach them, and apply
first-aid immediately to any injury
resulting from a mishap no matter
how trivial it seems.
