Pie . verf owv s Can Be a voided Although sugar is scarce and shortening shorter- than ever be- fore., you still may be baking a few pies. If so, you may be troubled with into the oven. It's a mess no the problem of juice running out housewife welcomes. A number, of ways for avoid - r_ this.oven disaster are suggest- ed by Mrs. Vivian XlacFawn, ex- iension nutr_tion specialist at llic',.igan State college. For one thing, you can thicken the juice slightly with one or two tabiesnoons of cornstarch. Blend the cornstarch -with a little juice when you're getting the fruit ready for the pie; then mix with the fruit and sugar. Or, sprinkle the bottom crust and filling with your before adding the top crust. Be sure that there are enough slits in the top crust of the pin to let the steam escape. Another precaution that often saves juicy overflows is the build- ing up and reinforcing of the out- er edge of the pie crust. Do this by trimming the pastry about an ir2he wider than the edge of the pan. Then fold the overlap under the moistened edge of the lower crust and press the three layer; together. Our grandmothers used to use a strip of cotton cloth moistened in cold water and fastened tight around the plate. This keeps the edge of the pie in place during baking. Some cooks insert a stiff paper funnel in the center of ' the top crust so that juice may rise in of without overflowing. Juicy fruit pies often run over because the pie maker tries to put too much filling into the pie. Dr. George M.

There were 66 fires in Livonia Township in 1945. The fire loss in Livonia Town- ship in 1945 was $27,000.00. Were you able to afford your part of this? There have been 14 fires in Li- vonia Township so far this year. The loss has been between $10,- 00 and $15,000. There has been one death and one seriously injured. What are .you doing to elimi- nate future loss of this kind? The veteran, the ex -war work- er, all who have returned to peacetime living again would be shocked if they were told that the oldest and worst enemy known still stalks their community today —just waiting for the kill . . . the foe has stealthy saboteurs ... the residents see them every day. An oily rag, bits of crumpled pa- per, old. v7onlout furniture and other combustible materials . . . they appear harmless enough.

Here are a few points for the committees to impress on the pub= lic: Homes Half of all the fires occur in the home ... One out of 75 homes is burned to the ground or damag- ed severely each year ... rubbish accounts for 90 per cent of all res - fires. • I. Remove all rubbish and oily rags which may ignite spontane- cusly. Burn them or storethem in closed metal containers. 2. Examine heating systems for cracks, soot clogging and de- fects and see that no combustible materials are exposed to heat. 3. Examine old shingle roofs and replace with fire -retardant roofing. 4. Keep ashes in metal con- tainers. 5. Replace frayed electric cords and have defective electri- cal equipment replaced or repair- ed by a competent electricitan. Farms About 3,500 are killed yearly on farms. Property damage amounts to $100,000,000 yearly. Lightning causes about 400 deaths and there is an annual loss of about $8,000,- 000 from sparks on roofs. 1. Clean rags, paper boxes and old furniture from attics, barn and other out -buildings,_ 2.. Chimneys and flues should be nspected and cleaned once a year. 3. Cut down and burn dead vines, brush and weeds along fence rows, particularly those near buildings. 4. Remove cobwebs and dust from switch boxes and clean all lamps. 5. Install lightning rods. 6. Keep furnace clean and keep stoves a safe distance from walls and wooden boxes. Industry There are about ten fires daily in factories. Fires attack about 29,000 factories yearly. 1. Keep factory premises free from rubbish and provide stan- dard metal containers for waste materials. 2. Inspect fire extinguishers, any hose connections and automa- tic sprinklers to be sure they are ready for service at all times. 3. Clear fire doors, fire exits and any fire escapes of obstruc- tions. 4. Keep fire escapes in good repair and have them well mark- ed. 5. Inspect your own plant for fire hazards such as defective wir- ing, defective heating equipment and all appliances. Can you afford to be without a home in these times? Can you afford to be without a place of business not oper,,;Sng? farmhouse or barns? Can you aff:-d to have your Of course you can't . . . so it behooves us all to give heed to this warning and do something about it .. not just two or three on the street but everyone on the street ... everyone in the town- ship.

Fire Department Tells The Hazards Of Banked Fires Several cases are on record where persons have been serious- ly burned in connection with banked fires in ordinary furnaces and stoves. In other instances serious property damage has oc- curred and in a number of cases people sleeping in the house have died fryom the toxic effect of the gases or vapors liberated. With a bed of hot coals in a furnace it is common practice to bank the fire at night by placing a considerable amount of fresh coal on the fire and by closing oif the damper in the pipe. Right here the "Old Demon starts to work. The new coal being acted upon by the -hot coals' below, generates gases, largely CARBON MONOX- IDE, which, however, cannot burn because there is not sufficient air corning in. Even though the fur- nace door mightte left open', thus providing air for combustion, there still will not be any burn- ing of the gases if the blanket of new coals is. too. thick for the flames to come thru it. Under these conditions the mixture of readily combustible CARBON MONOXIDE and air may com- pletely fill the furnace c=- ^tove and even the chimiiey. With this mixture of air and heated combustible gases, there is only needed a flame for as ex- plosion or flash to take place.

Sometimes the igni- tion is so rapid. as to produce ex- plosive effects, blowing the doors off or wrecking the stove pipe or flue. Under these conditions, fiarrre may .be discharged and woodwork ignited. Or large quan- tities of smoke and fumes may be liberated, which, seeping thru the house, may result in death to the occupants. As with all other preventative measures, knowledge of what Happens and why, is necessary, if such explosions are to be prevent- ed. An abundance of unconsumed coal gas, an adequate supply of air to give an explosive mixture and the presence of flame or heat sufficient to ignite it, is all that is essential to produce an explosion orflash. The cure is to prevent these conditions. To do So every user should be trained how to bank afire. First and most important, al- ways leave a small spot of hot coals exposed. Thus any gases will be ignited before -they accumu- late in dangerous quantities. Second, cut off all intake of air from BELOW the fire and Third' provide plenty of air ABOVE the fire. The proper procedure in bank- ing the ordinary house -heating furnace is ' to pull the hot coals to the front of the fire -box letting them slant' downward to the BACK of the furnace. Then t pu;: on fresh coal, but leave a spot of hot coals, about the size of a man's hand, uncovered in the FRONT. Open the ports in the fire door and close off all bottom draft. The damper should NOT be entirely closed. If the smoke pipe is poorly in- stalled or badly corroded this may result in opening up the pipe suf- ficiently to allow smoke to fill the house and do considerable dam- age or have a harmful effect o the occupants. In urging the householder to assure himself that the furnace and pipe are:.in good condition and clean, and that he has full knowledge of how to use the fuel is very important BE- CAUSE he should realize that the usual fire insurance policy con- tract DOES NOT COVER DAM- AGE DONE BY SMOKE OR. SMOKE EXPLOSION WHERE. THERE IS NO FIRE DAMAGE. Better take -a look at thatpolicy of yours, Cooper School The Kindergarten learned two new songs this week. They have a collection of glass animals.

This new rate, worked out by the Company and approved by the Michigan Public l: t Service Commission, became effective in January, 1946.. Your nexf Edison bill will be figured on this lower basis, tending to offset bills which are nor - really higher during the winter season with its short dark days. The price of residence electricity has decreased gradually since the end of World War 1. Now you get twice as much electricity for your money as you did then. ,R Detroit Edison rates are now the lowest in the Com- pany's history. The quality of our service remains unchanged.
