On !a: t Friday there c curred a
fre at the home cT Mr. and Mrs.
LI' yd Grady which destroyed both
the chicken hou:e and the brooder
'.:n:se, together with some 375 young
chickens, some cf them nearly half
grown. Mr. Grady was working in
the field at the time and noticed
snickc coming from the chicken
hc.is:-. He hurried to the house and
called to bis wife, but receivin
no l
have gone to the brodoer house, as
they were ac;ustcmed to do, to watch
the little chickens. Hastening on to
the brooder house, he looked into the
windew and saw the place was empty
and with very little smoke therein.
The chicken house, however, was fill
ed with smoke and ro hot there was
no use trying to enter the building.
So he returned tc the house to con
tinue the search, thiding the wife and
baby asleep, -which was a great re
lief. Mrs. Gra ':y had laid down with
the baby to g: t it asleep and also
gone to sleep horscif.
j The lcs.i cf the chicken house and
! brooder house and the "75 chickens
therein, has proven quite costly, but
j Mr. Grady was glad to find the wife
land baby secure from harm. It ap-
