When Battalion Fire Chief John J.
O'Brien, stationed at the engine house
across the street from the Liberty build

CINE house he saw flames shooting from
the entire top of the building. He imme-
diately sent in a second alarm and this
was followed by a general alarm.
The wooden interior of the building
furnished ready fuel for the flames that
quickly ate their way from the attic to
the fourth and third floors of the build

ELECTRIC WIRING
BELIVED ORIGIN.

While the origin of both fires appears
on the records Of the fire department as
undetermined, fremen say they believe
defective wiring was the cause in each
case.
Seldom does a fire gain better head
way than that in, The Liberty building
before being discovered. The building
was erected in 1874, and for many years
was known as she Board of Trade build
ing. 1t has walls Of stone and brick,
but the interior of the building is Of
wood. 1t is four stories high, with an
attic over the entire building.
1t was in the attic that the fire started.
The attic was the home of more than
thousand pigeons. and while the flames
and smoke mounted skyward great focks

TWO FIRES IN
DOWNTOWN PART
OF CITY2COSTLY
Liberty and Rialto Buildings
Ablaze at Same
Time.
LOSS ESTIMATE, $4,000

Two Of the most costly fires in In
danapolis in number Of years occurred
simultaneously late yesterday afternoon
and kept the entire fire force fighting
flames in two downtown business build
fngs for several hours. The damage by
fire and water in the two buildings was
estipated at SIZE, 600.
The first fire started in the Liberty
building, Maryland street and Capitol
avenue, at 10 p m, and was by far the
most spectacular blaze. The loss there
was about $35,O00
- The second fire was in the RiaIto
building. 1926 North Pennsylvania
street, and started while the firemen were
fighting the blaze at the Liberty build
ing. The damage to the Rialto building
was probably not much more than 5000,
but the water damage to stock brought
the loss to a high figure.

COLORADO BECOMING
A WHEAT STATE

Advance reports from the federal
census bureau, compiled by the State
Board of Immigration, show the pro-
duction Of wheat in all the important
wheat growing counties of Colorado
in 1919 to have been 1s,273,125
bushels. The production of wheat
in these same counties in 1909 was
1922 $50 bushels. The counties for
which no reports are available are
Clear Creek, Gunnison, Hinsdale,
Jackson, Lake, Mineral, Park, San
Juan, Summit and Teller. These
counties reported but SO acres Of
wheat in 1909, and county assessors
reported 444 acres for them in 1919.
The State Cooperative Crop Re-
porting service estimated the pro-
duction Of wheat in Colorado in
1919 at 17,644,3O0 bushels, basing
the estimates upon acreage reports
made by county assessors. Investi-
cations made during 1920 convinced
the officials of this service that the
estimate was slightly too low and in
December, 1920, it was raised to
IL, 4Sb, 386. In no state for which
information is now available is the
estimate made by the Bureau of
Crop Estimates so close to the enum.
Grafton made by the Census Bureau
Us in Colorado. When all figures
are in it is evident that the differ.
ence will be less than l per cent.
The Census Bureau found 1928.
24s acres Of wheat harvested in the
counties for which reports are avail
able. County assessors reported l..
325,7s3 acres of wheat planted in
the state for the 1919 harvest, and
the State Crop Reporting Service in.
creased this to 1,459,O 900 acres be-
cause Of incompleteness of assessors'
returns. This figure was further
revised in December, 1920, being in
creased to 1,524,594 acres. There
was heavy abandonment of wheat in
1919, due to the extremely unfavor-
able weather that prevailed just pre-
vicus to harvest. The Census Bur.
eau's report on the acreage aband-
"ned in the state is not yet available.
tho figures 80 far given being only
he wheat actually harvested for
srain. Such comparisons as are
available in few counties indicate
that the abandonment was close to
100000 acres.
The counties for which census re-
ports are now available harvested
340,648 acres of wheat in 1909.
These figures show that the acreage
Of wheat in the state has increased
nearly 800 per cent in the past ten
years, and that production has in
creased nearly 16O per cent. The
year 1919 was exceptionally unfav-
orable for wheat production, and the
same acreage as was cultivated to
the crop in 1919 would have produc-
ed more than 2s,0OO,00O bushels Of
wheat with a season as favorable As
that Of 1920. Reports so far re-
ceived from the Census Bureau in
dicate that no state except Montana
