Rural Fires Cause Heavy Damage in Beaverhead County
Two outlying district fires caused heavy damage this past week in Beaverhead County.

Firefighters saved the building, hotel, and dance hall, but the bar fixtures were almost total losses. Five haystacks on the Lee Martinez ranch near Dell burned, destroying 150 tons of hay, possibly ignited when a leather jacket pocket matches were rubbed with a knife.
