PRAIRIE FIRE BURNS GRAIN
Many Farmers Near Garden City suf-
fer Heavy Loss.

Details have been received OF a dis
astrous prairie fire which swept the
region near Garden City. The fire is
alleged to have started on the farm
Of B. Butler, who is said to have been
burning stubble, when the wind sud-
denly came up and swept the fire be-
yond his control. The heaviest losers
were John and Earl Miner, who lost
large quantities of grain and hay. The
fire then swept across a school Sec
ton, where a large amount of hay
was in stack. A number of the farm
ers had their entire winter supply OF
hay destroyed.
While the fire was sweeping across
the prairie many families hurriedly
removed from their homes. The fire
was driven with such force that fire
breaks were Intellectual.
1t is expected that numerous dam
age suits will result from the fire,
which was one of the most serious IL
the history of the county.
