Dutch, Victoria Street "Wellington. In forwarding a photograph of two Chemical Fire Engines, Mr Dutoh writes:— JHESE machines are specially necessary in districts having no water- _ service, and are rapidly ooming into general use. They are perfectly simple to work, and oan be used by a woman &3 well as by a man- The machine in kept cons'an tly full of water with the charge of soda mixed in it, and the charge of acid is contained in a lead bottle suspended inside the cylinder. When the machine is required, all that is necessary when it is run into position is to turn the email wheel on top of cover, which releases the bottle, allowing it to capsize the acid into the water and soda. Instantly a pressure of 1201 b is generated and the chemical ready for use by spraying, similar to using ordinary garden-hose. The charge will last from twelve to fifteen minutes, and only costs about 2s Gd, so the working expense is almost nothing. No. 1 machine in photo, represents a single-cylinder, 80-gallon capacity, and No. 2 a double-cylinder each 20-gallon capaoity. No. 2 machine has the advantage of giving a second charge available instantly, if necessary, and allowing the first oylinder to be re filled whilst using the second. Each machine carries a separate charge of acid and soda for each oylinder, I have ust made, and delivered two of these Chemical Fire Engines, each of 40-gallon capacity aiagU to the Welliagfcja Omacil, for use on the high levels; and the Harbour Board are having two similar machines for use at the wharf sneds. After a practical test at the New Plymouth Exhibition in January with No. 1 maohine, by the local Fire Brigade, the Committee, on the recommendation of the Captain, awarded me a gold medal for this maohine. They are a necessity for large buildings such as hotels, warehouses, schools, sawmills, etc. I will be pleased to receive communication from anyone requiring a Chemical Engine, and to send any particulars required.
