cry and Hay mt Col. Dyer Pace in
Rutland-I.Oss $4,000

Rutland. Nov. 25.-One of the largest
and best equipped dairy barns in this
part of the State was destroyed by fire
early this morning, when practically all
of the buildings except the house on the
farm two miles south of this CITY, own
ed by Col II. Edward Dyer of Mill viii
lage. were burned with about Is head
of cattle, farm machinery and a quaint
ty of hay. The loss is estimated at about
$4,000, well covered by insurance as to
buildings, stock and machinery. The
cause of the fire is unknown. About 10
years ago the large house on the adj
joining farm. also belonging to Colonel
Dyer, was burned.
1t Is thought that the fire had been
burning for some time before 1t was dis
covered as the flames were shooting high
into the air when first seen. About four
o'clock railroad men in this city saw the
reflection and thinking that the fire was
located In some structure in the south
ern part Of the city rang in the alarm
which called out both motor trucks. The
firemen went nearly to the scene and
then returned as the buildings were
doomed by this time and there was no
water supply for pumping purposes.
The ruined buildings include a barn 12o
by 40 feet. modern in every respect. sta
bles 10 by 45 feet. sheds and two 2O-ton
silos. A yoke of oxen. registered
Guernsey bull. valued at several hundred
dollars. one or more cows and some calves
were burned. These were in pens where
the stables extended under the big barn.
valuable Holstein bull broke out of the
enclosure he was In and was thus saved
from the flames
The big barn and stable were erected
in 1910.
