    there is a report that "Two Killaloe men, Mr. J.H. Zummach and Mr. C.W. Bourke, have joined the ranks" of those involved in fox raising and fox farming.

    In a January 2 story (page 141) it is noted that four pairs of silverfox had arrived at the Sterling Silver Black Fox ranch at Killaloe(established by J.H. Zummach.)

    1931 Briefs

    On Wednesday morning on Mr. James Harrington's premises near Killaloe, just as threshing operations were finished, a fire was caused, and, in an instant, the whole interior of the barn was enveloped in flames. There was not even time to remove the mill. It was consumed, together with two barns, a cow byre, two sheds and all the feed, which included about 50 tons of hay. The loss is estimated at $3,000 or $4,000, which is partly covered by insurance. The mill destroyed was a new one owned by Messrs. Henry Kuehl and J.H. Zummach, and on which there was no insurance. The theory advanced as to the cause of the fire is that, at threshing, considerable gas generates and a spark, due to friction in some part of the running mill, will set everything ablaze in a moment.
