The fire, which was of unknown origin, started in the fuel bin and spread rapidly. It occurred about 11 a. m., when a large crew was at work. The men, using all available equipment ' battled the blaze, which quickly spread to other parts of the mill. Had it not been for the early start gained by the fighters it is believed that the entire mill may have been wiped out. In 1938 a fire completely de stroyed the box factory and mil lions of feet of piled lumber at a huge loss. The rebuilding pro cess has Just been completed The last fire resulted in the in stallation of modern fire fighting equipment, which proved its worth in last week s blaze.
