Tho Firc-Marsllal has addressed ]otter OF

ment ut tho recent burning Of Tobey's paoking-
houao. II should suggest to other largo manu-

Ing dro-dcpartmonts Of their own. A silsby
engine Of tho second class, with hose and conf
pleto outfit, can 10 provided for less than ct. 900,
and tho employees may bo drilled III abort tmo
to do ei1iciont aeryico. The advantage of having
an engine with appliances on the spot, SO that
tho fire nlay DO attacked at the first out
break, is incalculable. It frequently happens
that disastrous contlagratlon nny bo prevented
altogether, aud the spread Of tho fro may al-
why's DO checked by such prompt resistance. It
would bo well for manufacturing districts to CO.
operate in the purchase and equipment Of these
private 1lro departments, which will tlon always
bo at hand on donaad. It would probably be
profitable investment In the way Of decreasing
tho rates Of insurance, and 1t would certainly be
