Last Saturday afternoon the Sewers
brothers lost six large stacks OF
wheat, which caught fire from the
sparks from the engine. The Swanson
machine had just started to thrash
this last setting and when only a few
bushels was out, a smoke was seen
coming from one of the stacks and in
less than five minutes after the smoke
was discovered the six stacks were
ablaze. The high wind that prevailed
made it impossible to save any. The
separator was saved. This is heavy
loss as there was no insurance on the
wheat.
