BRIGADE KEPT BUSY.
PUKEKOHE OUTBREAKS
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) PUKEKOHE, this day. The Pukekohe lire brigade was called out twice yesterday morning, once when a lire broke out in long grass on the railway embrankment near the Farmers' Trading Company's premises, and the second time when a grain and produce store caught (ire shortly after the Hamilton-Auckland excursion train had passed. The flames were suppressed before any serious damage was done.
Last night one end of a chaff shed was damaged on the property of Messrs. Frank Perkins- and Company, but the fire brigade prevented the flames from spreading. About thirty bags of chaff stored in the shed were removed practically intact.
