Fruit Sprayers
Battle Fires
Farmers Give Army Point
er. on New Method of
Fighting Flames.

LANSING, MICH.-Farmers who
sought to protect their own property
from fire by keeping high-pressure
fruit sprayers filled with water
made a contribution to the science
of fire fighting and to the war eff
fort, according to officials OF the
John Bean Manufacturing company.
Statesmen found that farmers used
their high-pressure fruit sprayers on
orchards in summer and for fire.
fighting equipment the rest OF the
year. The farmers reported the
sprayers could quench "good-sized
fires" and that they used much less
water to put out fires than old-time
pumps or the bucket brigade"
The company experimental with
higher pressures and larger equip
ment. The 'fog drive" fire-fghting
technique resulted and was adopted
by the war department for its emer-
gency crash trucks. Meanwhile, the
company developed its own 'revo-
lutionary' type of fire truck equipped
with high-pressure pump, water
tank, ..garden-size" hose and fog"
nozzles operated by a trigger SINH
lar to those on a boys squirt gun.
Gets Government Orders.
Before commercial distribution OF
the new type of fire truck could be-
gin, the government began ordering
equipment for its own fire protec-
ton and an adaptation of the equip
ment for gas decentralization.
Company officials said it had been
known for long time that steam
was the best fire fighting medium
known. They explained that their
high-pressure fog, which drifts onto
a fire like smoke, could be called
''cold steam" -,,--.-. e.. .-s.-.--..
Main advantage of the new meth
cd was said to be water economy
and incidentally reduction or elimi-
nation of water and chemical DAM
age caused by other methods. Off
Gals said that but one-tenth to one
twenty-ffth of the water ordinarily
required to put out fire was used
with the fog method. szs
Howard c. Lisle, general manag-
er of the Bean plant, said the 'fog-
drive method had proved its value
at fires which occurred at a dis
lance from fire hydrants and espe-
cially at airports where, when a
crash occurs, there is no time for
laying a line Of hose. 4.
Demonstrate on Shack.
At a recent demonstration here, a
20 by Is foot shack, IL feet high,
was saturated with gasoline and oil.
Fire was allowed to envelop it be-
fore the fog" was turned on. The
fire was ''blacked down" in one
minute and was put out under two
minutes with less than 100 gallons
of water.
Arnold c. Renner, Michigan state
fire marshal. said the fog" method
if handled by experts would be eff
fective in fighting IS out Of every
100 fires.
''But when the flames begin to
roll and the wood is charred down
an inch or more, the old method
where you hit it with lot Of water
still goes" Renner said.

evening. Anton Norling of Richland,
Pomona master presided. There
was an attendance of about $50
members. Juding by the small num-
Der of cars around the hall as COM
pared to previous years, and the
large attendance, it was apparent the
grangers are doing their bit in the
conservation of rubber and gasoline.
In many instances patrons have
doubled up, using one car, where
each might have used his own.
It was interesting to note the many
war bonds purchased by the sub
ordinate oranges, in their annual re-
ports, as well as the continued in
crease in membership. The state
Grange was represented by Ira Shea,
state lecturer Of Seattle. Carl Will
