Reduce Farm Fire Losses National Prevention Week Proclaimed
President Eisenhower proclaims National Fire Prevention Week October 9 to 16 and urges citizens to promote prevention and control of fires. Farm fire losses rose 37 percent in the 1950s with a third of the increase in 1959, estimated at 174 million dollars for 1959, 18 million more than 1953. Plant food used according to soil needs helps farmers expand without more land by higher yields per acre.
