October fires test Hamiota volunteers during harvest heat
The Hamiota Fire Department logged four calls on October 1 as farmers harvested under record heat and low humidity. An overheated exhaust sparked the first blaze on Harry Andrew’s farm damaging a grain truck. Don Park’s combine burned with grain loss. Donna McKinnon’s truck cab burned while grain was spared. A fourth fire on Elgin McConnell’s land caused straw and stubble flames but no crop loss.
