Show Grass, Brush F.res Keep Firemen Busy The Parowan City volunteer department de-partment was called into action three times during the past week, twice in one day. The fires which necessitated the calls were all .grass and weed fir-s but could. have been extremely dangerous dan-gerous . when we consider the dry ' condition of the area. On Wednesday, July 5 a fire the City trash dump burned over a large area of grass, brush and pinon and cedar trees southwest of the city, and almost got into the south field. On Thursday a brush fire burned over the north half of the Mario Topham block and before the fire truck could get back to the garage a second call came, this time to the Ned Day home on North Main Street where grass and a hedge were burning in a fence close to the Day home. |
