May PURCHASE
AUTOMOBILE
FIRE TRUCK

The county commissioners have
under advisement the purchase of
an auto fire truck to take the
place of the fire wagon now drawn
by the horses. 1t costs $3.50 per
year to care for the horses, and
with an auto truck this expense
would be done away with. The
repairs on the auto would not
amount to as much in year as the
repairs upon the wagon. The auto
would carry several hundred feet
more of hose and. besides. would
lessen the time greatly in reach
ing conflagration. and this IS
what counts when a fire starts.
There is money In the fire fund
and the purchase of an auto fire
truck would not damage It.
