common everyday farmer rare op-

and learn from the experience of
others of his class. The people of
the world, in every profession, have
come to know that agriculture is the

preciate a great agricultural show.
City folk generally care more for this
than all other features of fair.
They can see races and attractions of

only at an agricultural fair can they
see the fruits of agricultural industry,
genius and progress. Reasonable

Some Remedies Needed.

If the people OF this city expect and
desire to enjoy q continual nee Of the
low rates now permitted by the in
surance companies doing business
here, it is plain that some decided
changes will have to be made in the
conduct Of affairs pertaining to the
local fire department. To have to
speak of these matters through the
press is to be regre- ted, but the time
has come for some suggestions and
advice to the powers that be-" In
the first place, during the summer
months in the daytime, the service
Is badly crippled on account of the
hose wagon teams being employed in
sprinkling the streets E instance,
when the alarm came in last Satur-
day morning, both teams and their
drivers were busy in sections of the
city very remote from the engine
houses and were consequently not on
hand to haul the wagons to the fire
in time. The sprinkling districts
should be changed and the hose teams
kept in a section embracing q small
radius of the engine honsea so that
no unnecessary time would be lost in
reporting in cases of fire. This is a
matter that rests with the common
of4
But We are told there are discrepan-
cies in the department occasioned
solely by some of the members. In
subordlna ton is one of them. It is
notorious fact that harmony among
the companies has long been a stran-
ger and that some of the men recog-
nize no head. Now, this is all wrong.
The workings OF the department
should be directed firstly by the
chief and then through the different
company officers. Discipline should
be practiced at all times. Nobody
has the least desire to bell tie the
valued services of our volunteer fire.
men, and we want to say right here
that their lahors are ora EMILY ap
preclated, but there are times when
the actions of some of the men ale
open to criticism. We understand
that at the fire Sunday morning Mr.
Weber was obliged to use force in
preventing the flooding of his store
when there was absolutely no cause
for throwing any water. The by
drants, also, were needlessly left open
to flood the streets and damage the
concrete bed OF the pavement. And
there are other reports about the
firemen floating around which we do
not care to here allude to, but they
are matters that should be investi.
gated by the mayor and further per-
formances of like nature prevented.
1t is to the city's advantage in the
line of insurance that our fire pro-
lection is better looked after With
our splendid waterworks system we
should have the very best protection.
