Ojtlateu Firs MydnMrt MtifcuU la aad tftw Attalatd to Statements contained in the Chicago pepers of late relative to freezing of tbe fire hydrants, led a reporter of The Leader to call at the" office of the Davenport Water company and make inquiries relative to the condition of the hydrants here. The recent snap lias been a severe test, and if tie hydrants are all in good shafre at this time there is reason to believe that they would stand almost any nort of weather. The reporter called Suut. T. N.

Hooper's attention to an article that appeared in the Chicago Inter- Ocean which stated that in the neighborhood of fifteen hundred fire hydrants of that city were frozen up and that large forces of men were engaged in thawing them out. 'I must say" said Mr. Hooper, "that there must be something wrong in the system of inspection or else they have no inspection. I cannot understand how so many hydrants could be Omen at a time where there is a thorough system in vogue. I am quite certain that there is not a single froz- en.hydrant in this city today.

We are constantly inspecting them. Of course it would not be strange if we occasionally had a frozen hydrant out of five hundred, about the total number of fire-hydrants in this city. But I do not think it probable under oar system of inspection." He was requested to say something I of the system employed here and con- (tinued as follows: tbe first place we keep ly posted as to the depth of the frost in the ground. Today is it three feet in the street and two feet and six inches inside of the curb line. Now the safer It the fact that after all lUll-- are uot received at our office--the chief of the department at once telephones UB and we at- teiid to the hydrant immediately.

When a fire alarm box is pulled we have men at the fire to look after erfthing and attend to the hydrants after the firemen get through using Mr. Hooper was then asked relative to the use of hydrants by others than the water company's employes and the firemen. "I have always taken the he continued "that the hydrants should not be opened by any one tt- cept the firemen in. time of fire or by men in the employ of the Water company, as they should always be looked after, after they have been opened. There have been many in othet cities where hydrants have been ed by parties not familiar with them and the stem broken.

This has not been discovered until a fire. It is dangerous practice and should not be allowed "I should have remarked while speaking of the manner of making the tests, that in the event the frost got down to the valve; which is hardly probable, the hydrant should be opened a little to create a circulation, but under no other It is gratifying to know that the city of Davenport is looked after so closely Ill 151 by the employes of the fire With frozen hydrants, or with the hydrants out of repair a fire in the heart of the city could do thousands upon, thousands of dollars of damage and the department -would be powerless to prevent it PRESIDENT SCHOftMNtt ANSWERS ARTICLE. that City Make a gaeew that Greater The interview which appeared in a recent issue of The Leader relative to tbe formation of a milk trust in this city, does not meet with the approval of the Dairymen's association.

Schoening of the association has replied to it in the following words: Editor Leader: By request of the Dairymen's Protective association and with your kind consent, I beg leave to reply to the article referring to the milk trust as published in jour Issue of Feb. 1, from the standpoint of the consumer as well as tbe producer and the middleman that is to be.

but there was a good house considering, and those who present custom, and that such a tern can only be successful in cities where it is necessary to ship milk by rail or where long, journeys by wagon are necessary, I believe I can safely say that the majority of people believe in coming in closer relations with the producer? than this system would alford, thus have an opportunity for redress, should anything be wrong.

And so I might go on and state a number of reasons why milk furnished the consumers second handed would not receive the care and attention it should have. The sterilising of all tin- ware used in our business is a good idea, but in the hands of a careless person would be lost in the space of an hoar or so.

The public is getting its milk as cheap as it can be produced and with the present competition removed, it would be the loser. Should any trust get control a cut for the producer and a raise for the consumer would not be out of order. There are a number of dairymen who are.prepared to adopt any improvement in their business, but they claim that with such outlay they cannot compete with those who do net and will not undergo this expense. For instance, milk that has been run through a. separator will be free fronr all sediment that may escape a strainer, but this would require a large lay help daily; the price of milk would certainly have to be more than milk not separated.
