The contents included about 500
bushels OF wheat. 700 bushels OF corn
30 tons OF hay and a large quantity Of
straw and fodder near tho barn. The
loss will probably exceed 5000 and is
only partly covered by insurance. The
Newark ilremen we're summoned and

their automobile engine The barn,
however, was too far gone TO save
when they arrived but they kept the
flames from spreading TO the house
ElktOn flremen also responded.
The fire started in a straw stack

and the straw found 60 be on flre. The
wind was blowing towards the barn
and in few minutes the building was
also ablaze There was no one else so
far as is known on the farm at the
time. The two men succeeded in get

time the fire had gotten such a head

could be saved
Mr. Montgomery had sold 500 bush

harvesting his corn crop last weel
and had this amount to about 70'

featured this Discovery" from
