No Response For Aid
As Barn Burns, Claim,

Fire of an undetermined origin
razed the 81 by 56-foot barn
structure on the Eliza Clum farm,
four and one half miles southwest of
Ada, shortly after midnight Monday.
Damage was estimated at about
$4,000.
The blaze, which had spread wide
ly thruout the barn destroying farm
equipment and grain materials, was
discovered around 1890 a. m. by
Clum's daughter, Virginia.
Clum told officials he notified two
fire departments who failed to answer
the call. The remainder of the
equipment was saved by Clum and
nearby residents who rallied to the
scene with water buckets.
Clum reported the loss of a hog,
25-tons of freshly-baled hay, 80
bushels of grain, a portion of a
wagon shed and a corn crib.

Allen County 1915 Farm Gross
Income Tops Seven Million Mark

is the opinion of some qualified OBJ
servers that dollar for dollar real
farm income has not kept pace with
the gains made by many other
groups in our population.
Altho the war principally was re-
sensible for raising the gross farm
income to its present level, the war
also hurt the farmer.
Farm machinery is critically short,
and due to the confused state of re-
conversion farmers are unable to OBJ
tain the equipment they need. In a
large part, 1945's income was pro-
duced with antiquated and worn-out
machinery, which not only has a
higher operating cost, but which also
is far more inefficient.
