GARDEN HOSE HANDY
Many Fires Can BE Checked With 1t
Before the Department
Arrives.

Many people do not seem to real
ize the value and necessity of keeping
their garden hose handy as a matter
of fire protection. A large proper
tion of the fires could be extin-
guished when first discovered with a
stream from the garden hose if it
were kept handy. A very good plan
is to have a cupboard or box close
to the lawn hydrant, or if there are
nose bibs in the house, to keep the
hose hanging in a handy spot close
to the door. A hose bib where the
hose can be attached quickly will in
nine times out of ten make the gar
den hose as effective whep the fire
is first discovered as the big hose
will be by the time the alarm can be
turned in, the firemen gather and the
truck hauled to the fire, especially in
the night time when all are in bed.

Mr.. Lamb has shown his faith in
the Lamb mine by working and
spending money for years in its de-
velopment, and never has single
share of it been placed upon the mar
ket.
Mr.. Coachman, who came from
South America last May to look after
his orchard interests east of the city,
became interested in the Lamb mine
and has bonded the half interest
owned by Mrs. Buckman, Mr.. Lamb s
foster mother, and has spent his
summer in assisting in developing
the property. The success of the new
mill and their ability to profitably
operate the mine will go far toward
encouraging the development of 9th
er properties and prospects around
Ashland.
