Fire destroys cow barn dairy house and hay barrack
A fire at J. Fred Putman’s Linganore farm destroyed a cow barn dairy house and hay barrack, with about 30 tons of hay lost and $4 000 in damage. The Independent Hose Company saved the bank barn and residence but could not prevent the other buildings’ destruction. The blaze began about 6 30 after milking and investigators could not determine the origin, though it appeared to start near a binder. Water was drawn from Singanore creek to fight the flames. The Putman farm lies three miles north of Jug Bridge near McKaig.
