Automatic Hose Couplings.

These we very seldom use, in fact only with 31" hose on the floats. The type is the "Surelock."

Our ordinary hose couplings are of 23" with a machined round thread of " pitch, which are quite satisfactory for our use.

They are absolutely fool-proof, and have neither springs, catches or other acces- sories, which accumulate defects.

Messrs. Shand Mason & Company, of Upper Ground Street, Blackfriars Road, London, S.E. 1, would no doubt supply you with a sample pair.

No.
