Knier, Lancaster County fire marshall, noted that fanners should always have an eye on their property as generally good protection. “A good idea is to keep your eyes peeled for something off-color,” be PUBLIC SALE OF HOUSEHOLD GOODS SATURDAY, MAY 5 At 12:30 P.M.

Terms By, LEROY H. BOWMAN Auctioneer LeßoyS. Horst Not Responsible For Accidents If Any Should Occur stated, ftracfa as people roaming around your property. If yon notice anything auspicious, you should notify the township authorities.” He further commented that he thought arsonists usually operate between 10 p.m. and 3 a.m., perhaps because at that time most people are asleep, and too added that those buildings dose to the road are picked, because the arsonist can get away quick from the scene. “You’ll very seldom see an arsonist go in a long lane to burn a bam,” he com mented. He added that if he would be a farmer, he believes having a sharp watchdog turned loose in the bam might be a good idea to discourage arsonists, plus, as a general rule, the fanner keeping an eye on the building himself. Again it was stressed though, that there are very few cases of bam arson, compared to the total population of bams in the area, and no reason for farmers to become unduly alarmed.
