Mr. Carroll had been burning weeds and brush along the fence when the wind swept some blaze through foxtail into the dry seed piles. Enough seed was burned to have threshed out three bags, or 450 pounds, Mr. Carroll estimated. He said the arrival of the firemen fire-men was a most welcome sight to him and their prompt action saved the rest of the field from going up in smoke. |
