The Richfield recorder. (Richfield, Idaho) 1909-1931, 1914-09-24

Richfeld is now ready, at least as
ready as one can over be---for the fire
that might come at any momene to de-
stroy. Six new hydrants have been in
stalled over the city---one at the Fletch-
er corner north of the church, one at
the Mickelwait corner. one at the Den
ecke corner where the fire was two
months ago, one near the Essley house,
one at Mrs. Thomas, and one across
the tract near John Fowler's. These
new connections should give the village
fine fire protection. Some of the new
hydrants are made to Pinch pipe, but
all can be used with the standard hose
connections.
The village had $50 feet of fire hose
and one cart. A shipment of new hose
was received this week, $50 feet in all,
besides a lot of one-and two-inch hose
for some of the private individuals of

will be possible to handle fire most
expeditiously in this way; to get one
line of hose to work on the fire just as
quickly as possible, and let the other
one come on as soon as possible there
after, but to provide for only short
run wherever the fire may be.
Richfeld was wonderfully favored in
that it was only one day short of five
years, from the last fire in the town
until the first of the series this summer.
But it mightn't be five minutes till the
next one---and the village authorities
believe it was money well spent to get
ready before the next one comes.
