II G. Werderle for ST. Paul and
Minneapolis on Tuesday afternoon
of last week for the purpose Of pur
chasing a new separator to take the
place of the one destroyed by fire
on Monday night of last week. Mr..
Werder's theory OF the destruction
of the other machine is that he keeps
a large rope hitche6 to the rear end
of the machine, to which, in case OF
fire, be can attach team and jerk
the thresher away from the burning
stack. He believes that spark got
into this rope early, and burned
gradually, until famed by the night
wind, it commenced to flame and
then communicated the fire to the
separator. The measuring and
weighing machine, which was saved,
cost about 800, and there is little
salvage IN the trucks and other
parts of the machine, but he places
his loss at 81, 900. He carried no
insurance. It was the first machine
burned on him during nine years Of
threshing.
