IN A FEW MINUTES MUCH PROPERTY WOULD HAVE GONE!
Quick Work by the Fire Department Extinguished a Fire Which Threatened the Kyer Mills.
What came near being a very serious flre was happily extinguished today by the quick work of the fire department. An outbuilding adjoining Staebler's coal shed, near the Ferdon Lumber yard was discovered on fire, probably from a spark from a locomotive. The fire department was there within five minutes and quickly had the fire, which had started a good blaze, out. The wind was blowing from the east and within a few minutes the sheds would have been ablaze and it would have been very difficult to save Kyer's Mills. As it was the loss was only between $5 and $10. It illustrates-the value of prompt work by a good fire department.
