Burned to the Ground.

Fire broke out in the heating room
of the residence building and green
house on the Riverdale Seed Farm
about three O'Clock Tuesday morning
and before assistance could arrive the
whole thing was beyond control.
Manager Bridge, in charge of the
farm, was the only occupant Of the
buildings. He had fire protection on
the grounds in way of force pump,
hose, etc, and on being awakened by
the blaze started at once for the hose.
But the fire had unfortunately started
right near the pump and he was
unable to reach it or the hose.
Building, greenhouse, plants and seed
stock were completely destroyed.
Loss between S1,400 and $1,000,
covered by $500 insurance. The big
whistle in Centralia sounded an alarm
about one hour after the fire had
started, and while few people got
out of bed to see where the trouble
was located, very few were brave
enough to walk out to the farm.

He has visited other states where
