evidence of any fire on. the tour,
He wheeled the truck around
and headed back to a station just
west of the Miller home, where
it was said a short circuit in the
wiring had been extinguished with
little damage reported.
Charles Mercer answered two
calls to put out fires that had
ignited in stubble in fields where
wheat combining was in progress,
but reported no damage.
The first call Saturday after
noon, was to the Upper Gwyne
farm where the fire had been
put out by the time the truck
arrived. The second call was Sun
day where stubble was on fire
in a field near the S-curve on
State Route 142. A little water
dashed on the blaze controlled
the fire before it had spread.
