FRANKLIN VARIETY STORE CLEAN FARMS SELDOM BURN Agents Urges Clean-up On Farms As Safety, Health Measure "Give your farm a good spring cleaning!" is the advice of D. R Perkins, Yadkin county farm agent for the State college ex tension service, who this week reminded Tar Heel farmers that a clean farm is the safest and most profitable farm. Recommending several ways in which farmers could partici pate in a campaign for cleaner, safer, and more attractive farms, Mr. Perkins suggested that at tics, basements, barns and other buildings be thoroughly checked for old rans, boxes, paper, and furniture that may present fire hazards. Chimneys and flues might be inspected, to, he said, for effi cient operation next winter. Deadvines, brush, and weeds along fence rows and near farm buildings are also on his list of things to do, now that Spring ! is here. Buildings not already protect ed with fire extinguishers might be supplied with them, he said, pointing out that spring is a good time to check extinguisers that are a part of the farm's fire fighting apparatus: "Clean farms seldom burn," the agent said. "A clean farm is also generally free from dis ease, is safer, has a healthier atmosphere, and is a nicer place to live."
