North Farm Fire Seen Echoing 1946 Bristol Blast

A North Farm calf barn blaze last week rivaled the 1946 Walker's Cove warehouse fire in severity. Firemen battled shifting winds, limited access, and extensive sawdust fuel, saving the herd and farm offices but inflicting about 130000 dollars in damage. Fire lines, hydrants, and multiple pumper crews stretched across the scene as Warren's ladder helped extinguish remaining flames.
