Top Ten Reasons to Use Kerosene Stoves
There are a lot of reasons to use these good stoves. Here is a list of some of the most important reasons to consider. What a lot of kind people do not realize is that, worldwide, the stoves and heaters are immensely popular. They are inexpensive to purchase and the fuel is so clean, from distillation, that it burns most efficiently. In the US, the most common reason to purchase kerosene stoves is for disaster preparedness cooking.
1- It is the most cost-effective way to cook your food storage. Kerosene is the most efficient fuel (more than 90% efficient).
2- It can heat your home, as well as, cook your food.
3- A new stove can cost less than $50.00.
4- It is more convenient to use than other options.
5- Japan uses kerosene as their #1 source of cooking and heating fuel.
6- The Amish know how to go off grid and kerosene is their primary source of fuel.
7- The fuel can be dyed with food coloring to make it look pretty.
8- The fuel is not flammable. It is actually classified as a combustible. That means it is a lot easier to store than other flammable fuels like gasoline.
9- The fuel supplier will bring it to your home.
10- The third world uses kerosene stoves and heaters as their primary fuel source.
Final Tip
On the first lighting, dry burn the wick right away and it will make your stove or heater last much longer.

I got my New Book!
I finally got my new book,Country Wisdom & Know-How, in the mail. And I must say that it is awesome. It is much bigger than I thought that it would be. It is like a paperback coffee table book. That is the only way that I can describe it. It has everything in it. Much more information than some of my other books. Great book for such a low price. I have paid much more for books that have been smaller and with only one thing in them. So this is going to be one of my go-to books for my survival bookshelf. I am glad that I spent the money for it.

Kersosene Heater
What would be the best Kerosene heater to get for my small house? It is about 1200 square feet. I want to have one for backup and the old one I had is not wanting to work right. I need to get a new one. The last one we had was only 10,000 BTU, so I am thinking that we would need a bigger one. Does anyone have any advice on the best brands and sizes to get?

Emergency Crank Radio
Emergency Crank Radio-An Important Part of Your Home Emergency Kit
Particularly when you live in a climate or area that can produce some inclement weather, the possession of some devices that can help to keep you safer is a good idea. The weather and other things can offer some severe challenges to your ability to protect your family. Making sure that you have a way to stay in touch and to hear weather, fire, or other reports as they happen is an important part of keeping your family and home safe.
Recent history shows that events such as Katrina, the California wildfires and events such as the Nebraska ice storm several years ago that left more than 1500 people without power for several weeks proves to us that nature can be harsh. Being prepared for these eventualities is just common sense.
A good idea is to always have a kit in your home, no matter where you live. The ideal inclusions to this will be a hand crank solar lantern and a hand crank radio.
Those who lived without the power in Nebraska two years ago found that emergency radios were the only way that many of them could stay on top of the additional storms that were coming into the area. With no power at all, an emergency crank radio will be the only way to stay in contact with others and to hear weather and news reports that may be life-saving to you and to your family.
Many of us remain, sadly, unprepared for emergency situations. Your home should have an emergency kit inside it that offers you clean water for several days, hand crank lanterns, emergency radios, first aid supplies as well as non-perishable foods that can be easily opened an consumed without the need for cooking.
An emergency crank radio should be your first purchase as it is your first line of defense. These are basically radios that may be cranked to produce electricity to operate them, or may be solar charged to produce that power. They are by and large a self contained unit that will also be able to use batteries or to be plugged into a computer for a recharge.
The vast majority of the emergency crank radios that you will find are equipped with multiple bands. They are either AM and FM, as well as short wave that may permit you to tune to home radios as well, which is a definite bonus when it comes to dealing with an emergency situation such as a tornado, a wildland fire, or a blizzard.
Some units are also able to tune to fire and police bands to permit you to hear those as well. NO matter where you live, an emergency kit and a hand crank radio is an important tool that no home should be without.
