ter service out of his fire engines.
Experience, assisted by his close observa-
ton. has demonstrated to him that water
forced through a. nozzle acquires a rotary

and dlsintegraLe las volume the moment

nozZles with cross biadss that divide the
circumference Of the nozzle into four seq

revolving as 1t leaves the nozzle and forces
1t out like u rifle ball in one solid mass
thus assuring an accelerated force and
ad ling at least 10 per cant to the carrying
