Fire Bug Gets
Busy at Wales
Two Large Grain Elevators
Make Fuel for Big Fires
Inside Five Days

Tuesday night Wales had it's
second elevator fire inside of one
week
The scene of Tuesday nights cost
ly blaze was the Wales Farmers Co.
Operative Elevator of which Sam
Burnett, is the manager and grain
buyer. The elevator was the lar
gest of six grain buying warehouses
in the town and the loss is stated to
have included about Is, 900 bushels
of oats that had been marketed since
seeding finished thi spring. There
was little if any other grain in the
elevator at the time of the fire. The
Farmers elevator in addition to hav-
ing the largest storage capacity of
any grain ware house in the town
was farmer owned concern and did
as extensive business as any con-
Germ of its kind in the county. The
Joss was total though covered to some
extent by insurance,
1t was not until along toward mid
night that the alarm of fire brought
the townspeople out from their homes
to see the spectacular flames shoot
ing skyward and property that had a
valuation of between $50, 600 and
Sc IS, 900 furnishing the fuel for a
huge conflagration shat left it's re-
fection IN the midnight sky to be
seen miles away. There was prac-
tically no salvage and the origin of
the fire is shrouded in my stery.
1t is less than week ago. only
last Wednesday night, that Wales had
another visitation by fire when the
scene was also an elevator and the
loss involving considerable quanti-
of grain. This was the National
company's property and as little 10
known, about the fires origin as of
tie second one Of Tuesday this week.
What tends to give the whole affair
an air of suspicion is the fact that
on the night before the National ele.
vator was burned tu the ground it
had been discovered to be afire,
which would point wits directness to
the fact Of it having been criminal
act and not from any natural or ac-
cidental cause.
