Check your furnace

When the cool days and even cooler nights of autum arrive, the rush is normally to turn on the furnace and make the house comfy, cozy once more. But rushing to turn on a furnace that hasn’t been properly serviced or inspected could make things hot for you sooner than you expect. Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL), a not-for-profit organization which has tested products for public safety since 1894, and your local extension home economist remind you that defective heating equipment not only deprives a family of needed warmth while raising fuel bills, but also could create very real hazards. A faulty heating plant can result in fire or asphyxiation. The following practices performed on a regular basis should help to keep the heating equipment in good running order. Replace disposable air filters when dirty with replacements that bear the UL listing mark. Wash permanent filters in mild soap and water to help increase furnace efficiency and promote safe operation. Keep the furnace area clean of combustible materials. Be sure that warm air outlet registers and air returns are not covered by materials such as rugs, drapes, curtains or the like.

Examine the room thermostat for the correct setting and to be sure it is free of dust. Clean and inspect the humidifier for optimum operation. Inspection And Service Even though you have kept your unit in top operating condition, UL still recommends that a qualified serviceman perform the following inspections and service at the beginning of each heating season. Inspect air blower belts, adjust the tension or replace them if worn. When applicable, depending on the type of equipment, eliminate accumulated scale from the firebox and combustion chamber Inspect for perforations, cracks or openings in the heat exchanger which may permit products of combustion to leak into the heated air supply. Inspect flue pipe and connections between appliance and chimney. Clean the circulating air blower wheel and also the combustion air blower wheel if one is provided on your heating unit. Check boilers for proper water level. If a low water cut-off is provided, determine that the cutoff is functioning properly. Determine that all safety controls (limit and primary safety controls) and fuel shut-off valves are in working order. If the unit contains an adjustable fan switch, the controls should be set to manufacturer’s recommendations. Lubricate all motors according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Oil Furnaces If you have an oil-fired appliance, the following checks and services are recommended by UL for the oil burner. Clean and adjust ignition and replace if they are worn. Inspect oil pumps, lines and fittings to assure that they are free of oil leaks. Check the burner flame for the proper pattern. Replace the nozzle if necessary. UL urges consumers to act early to perform the required inspections and service, before the unit is needed. Truck hits buggy Robert A. Mullet, 20, r 2 Milford, was involved in a truckbuggy accident at 7:05 p.m., Monday, on CR 900 N, one-half mile east of Community Center. Mullet was westbound on CR 900 N and had accelerated to pass another westbound auto. He observed the buggy ahead and applied the brakes but his truck skidded and struck the buggy head-on. Injured was Ammon J. Hochstetler, 44, r 2 Nappanee, his wife Edith, 42, and a passenger, Sylvia Chupp, 39. All three were treated at Elkhart Hospital. Hochstetler was treated for neck pains and received stitches in the forehead. His wife sustained contusions and a cut to the forehead. Both were released. Sylvia Chupp suffered two broken legs and contusions, she is listed in fair condition in the Elkhart Hospital. The Hochstetler horse was killed in the collision and was valued at S6OO. Damage to the buggy was SSOO. No estimate was set for the truck. Kosciusko County Patrolman Roger Fellows and James Evans of the Nappanee Police Department investigated the accident. ■J GETTING FLEAS TO FLEE Although many people have their own theory on how to get fleas to flee, there are some facts about these bothersome parasites, along with ways to get rid of them, that may surprise you. ♦ ♦ ♦ A flea can jump off a table and land from 3 1/2 to 5 feet away. They can also jump nine inches straight up from the floor and can live about 583 days on your pet if you do nothing about them. * * * Although many dog owners think a flea collar is the best answer to their pets’ flea problem, many experts point out that chemicals from these collars can be absorbed into your pets’ skin. Instead, many recommend tablets for dogs and cats that work internally to discourage flea infestation. One, Vita-Flea, is a natural-base tablet that includes vitamins and minerals in the proper balance to reverse and halt infestations by fleas and other external parasites. And because it’s a food supplement, dogs and cats are healthier. Actually, fleas do not bite. They use a razor-sharp stylus that comes down from their snout with which they cut back and forth. That’s why using a flea control will keep the four-pawed members of your family happy and healthy. The avocado has more protein than any other fruit.

Political potpourri PHIL OPPENHEIM. Republican candidate for Congress in the Second District, met with former President Gerald Ford on October 6 at the state capital. The pair talked about improving federal services for Indiana. In the photo above Oppenheim is shown on the left with Ford on the right. Oppenheim says he is working closely with Republican leaders like President Ford because so many Indiana residents have expressed dissatisfaction with th§z Democrat Administration in Washington. "President Ford and I feel we can make a big change in Washington this year," Oppenheim said. "When 1 am elected to Congress, I will work to give Indiana residents a better return of federal services for their tax dollars and a major tax cut." Oppenheim sat with Ford at the head table of the state dinner at Indianapolis and talked about helping Indiana in the fight against inflation. "Working with President Ford and other national leaders, I can see we need a substantial tax cut. which the Jimmy Carter-Floyd Fithian team has rejected again and again Oppenheim said. "Indiana residents want to stop inflation, and we can do it if we take strong action to increase farm exports, cut taxes so business can expand, and reduce the tax load on consumers to get the economy moving again." f President Ford and 1 are working to convince other national leaders that inflation can be stopped." Oppenheim said. "Unfortunately the Carter-Fithian team just wants to keep jawboning. —o— VOTERS ARE being urged to carefully consider the two state constitutional amendments that will appear on the ballot Tuesday, Nov. 7. These amendments will have definite effects on Indiana’s public policy. Each has undergone close scrutiny by the general assembly: and now Hoosiers have the opportunity to make the final determination. One amendment will clarify succession to the governor’s office in the event the governor dies or the lieutenant governor is not able to serve. The question will appear on the ballot as follows: “Shall the Constitution of the State of Indiana be amended to clarify that the lieutenant governor become governor in the event of the death, resignation or removal of the governor and to add certain new provisions concerning vacancies and disabilities in the office of governor and lieutenant governor?” According to the amendment, the governor will nominate a successor to the lieutenant governor’s office if a vacancy occurs and the nominee would have to be confirmed by the general assembly. This proposal also provides for temporary replacement of either the governor or the lieutenant governor in case of incapacitation. The leaders in both houses of the General Assembly could suggest to the Supreme Court that either individual is incapacitated. If the court affirms the inability to serve, the lieutenant governor would fill the governor’s seat and the legislature would provide a legal method of replacement for the lieutenant governor s office. The second amendment would remove the two-term limit on sheriffs’ terms. — o— SOME 500 young people throughout the second district have been part of the Youth for Fithian campaign this year as efforts continue toward the re-election of Floyd Fithian of Lafayette. These young campaigners have worked to make this year’s youth program the most successful yet. Their bright blue T-shirts were an impressive sight at parades and county fairs. These kids are also going door-to-door in every town of the second district as they distribute pamphlets. School activity notes
