FIRE UNDER CONTROL.

Ranger Brender came down from
French Greek Monday, the fire out
there being under control. About
twenty-five men were left on tie job
as the fire was of such proportions
that a large number of men are still
necessary, for if the weather cleared
and wind sprung up it might give
them a lively time.
The gasoline engine pump which
was taken out there proved to be a
good machine and enabled them to
more easily cope with the fire. The
whole rig, excepting the hose, weighs
only about one hundred pounds and it
is easily transported. A THOUSAND
feet Of = inch hose came with it and
by placing the pump on creek they
were able to reach fires within a large
radius. Aluminium is largely used in
the engines construction.
