A Destructive Fire
Destroyed Miles
Nolt Poultry House
A roaring fire, ' which lit up the
countryside around Sporting Hill
Tuesday night, destroying a large,
two-story chicken house, almost
2,000 White Leghorns and a quan-
tity of feed.
Firemen from Mt. Joy, Manheim
and Lititz fire companies responded
about 10 p.m. to the alarm at the
farm of Miles O. Nolt, Manheim RI.
The owner estimated the loss of his
32 by 112-foot chicken house and
contents at “well over $12,000.”
Firemen, who found the chicken
house enveloped with flames when
they arrived, battled for a while to
save a nearby chicken house, 20 by
110 feet. At midnight, firemen from
Manheim and Mt. Joy were still at
the scene to prevent any new flare-
ups.
Nolt said only 200
chickens saved from the
house. They had been put in only
a week ago, he said. In addition, a
ton of laying mash and 200 bushels
cf corn, oats and wheat went up in
the blaze. The feed was put in the
building only about an hour hefore
the fire was discovered.
