Third of Fire Loss Suffered by Farmers
Agricultural America bears nearly a third of the national loss by fire each year. Seven of every twenty four fire deaths involve farm folk and farm money accounts for a large share of losses. The article cites Secretary of Agriculture William Jardine noting the farm share is underrepresented in statistics and stresses lightning, chimneys, carelessness, and wiring as main causes. It urges fire safe building, concrete materials, and farm water systems with well tanks atop silos to aid prevention and suppression.
