TWO BAD FARM FIRES,

Last Week there were two serious
fires on farm n Delaware casnty. One
night the farm buildings and much
personal property on the Carl Gienapp
farm north Of Earlviller were destroy
ed by fire. The fire originated from a
feed cooker and quickly spread until
the big bariliwas' mass Of ruins. ThH
entire, set OF buildings on the farmi
excepting the residence, were des-
troyed.
The boys had started fire in the
cooker in the, early morning and went
to the house Off breakfast and the
flames were discovered by neighbors
but before sufficient help. could gather
the graaries, sheds, and barns were
destroyed, the flames had made such
headway that it was with difficulty
the home was saved. About all the
feed left on the place is that which
the silo contained which was only
partially destroyed. A large new six
cylinder Paige automobile was also
burned up. The horses and stock
was saved with Nthe exception Of six
head Of calves. The loss is very
severe one on Mr.. Gienapp and sons
as only small amount Of insurance
was carried.
Early Wednesday evening all of the
buildings on the farm owned by Jerry
Mahoney southeast of Ryan were des-
troyed. Two large barns, the dwelling
and several smaller building were
away by the blaze in about an hours
time. Mr.. Mahoney, with the aid Of
his neighbors who promptly came to
his assistance saved considerable per-
sonal property. He carried some in
surance but his loss was great, fact
his friends sincerely regret.
