There is only one theory on the
origin Of the FIRE early Monday morn

contents on the farm Of Ernest John

East Woodstock. and that is that the
flames were started by the careless
ness Of tramps who may have entered
the barn to rest for the night. No
strangers were seen in the vicinity, so
there il nothing certain about this
theory; and Mr.. Johnson can think of
no other reason for the place getting
afire.
Mr.. johnson awoke about o'clock
Monday morning to find his barn a
seething mass Of flames lie dressed
hastily and went about saving all he
could. including his automobile that
was under a she'd attached TO the burn

potatoes, half ton of fertilizer, a
