FIRE in SPUD CELLAR

A fire in the cellar at the
Bone plase east of Monte Vista
called out the department
early Sunday morning. 1t
seems that an effort had been
made to smoke out nest of
hornets the day previous and
had set fire to some manure
and straw in the roof of the
cellar. Although water had
been applied and it was
thought that the sparks had
all been extinguished, the
breeze of the night famed the
embers into a blaze which
spread rapidly in spite of the
efforts of the Bone and Ward
families and threatened the
big barn close by. The local
fire department soon made
short work of the fire. Con-
siderable damage resulted to
the potatoes in storage in the
cellar.

until the city assumed responsibility.
Smith said he feared that the old ram
