burned everything he had except windmill,
as he was away from home. 1t burned a
span of good horses that were in the stable.
The fire did considerable damage for other
farmers. The fire was located about seven
miles northeast of Ainsworth.
MITCHELL, s. D., March 27.-(Special.)
The prairie fire season has started in
this section of the state, with three de-
vastatlng fires within a radius of fifty
miles. While there has been more OF less
snow this winter at the present time, the
grass is sufficiently dry as to burn very
rapidly. A fire was started short dis
tance south of Kimball by farmer who
was attempting to burn strawstack. The
wind was blowing very strong from the
northwest and the fire got away and
started a blaze in the grass, which was
swept off to the south. A report received
from there states that number of houses
and barns were burned in the pathway of
the elements. but no lives we're lost Five
miles northwest of this city another fire
was started In the same way Wednesday
but Il did little damage other than to burn
over an unoccupied section. hundred
men hurried to the scene Of the fire and
with plows they succeeded in plowing suf-
ficient breaks as to turn the course of the
fire until it burned into a large acreage
Of ground which had previously been
burned a week ago A school house stood
in the pathway OF the fire and the chill
dTen were liberated in plenty of time to
avoid the possibility of danger, but the
men with the plows were able to get ahead
of the fire and plow a break around It,
In northeast Aurora county there was a
disastrous fire on the same dag and eight
families were burned out of house and
home, although all escaped with their lives
getting away with what things could be
carried in wagons. The damage will ex-
tend into several thousands of dollars and
in the main there is little or no insurance
on the property destroyed. Thousands Of
tons of hay was destroyed, which win work
hardship on many farmers for spring
feed.
