NITE FIRE DOES
MUCH DAMAGE TO
GREENHOUSEJHERE
Whites Comrnend Fire Department For Bringing^ Blaze
Under Control
White's Greenhouse and Nursery
are in full operation, at the Bast end
of Sixth Street, while repair work is
progressing following a fire that
threatened to entirely destroy their
modern new greenhouses Thursday
evening of last week.
The holler room and office were
badly damaged and controls ou the
furnace, stoker motor, cooler compressor unit, considerable electric
wiring, and_a large stock of flower
boxes, baskets, vases, ribbons and
supplies were destroyed. A large portion of the cypress framework in the
new greenhouse, and the ten by forty
foot .sash house were ^ destroyed and
more than a thousand panes of glass
were broken.
While the most of the stock was
growing • in fields at this season, a
thousand blooming carnation plants,
250 pots of lilies that were about to
bloom and fifty geraniums were destroyed.
A lemon tree, grapefruit tree and
kumquat tree that Ed. had raised as
a hobby and were loaded with fruit
were apparently destroyed, but it is
thought his fig tree will survive the
fire.
It is expected the loss will run well
over $1,000.
The new greenhouse and other
buildings were well covered with
windstorm insurance, but there was'
ho fire insurance on the property because of extremely high rates for
greenhouses.
Cypress roof bars have been ordered
from Chicago and the glass has been
purchased to replace that which was
broken, much of which djd not fall until it had cooled on the day following
the fire. ■
Rebuilding was commenced at once
and business is being continued at the
residence until the greenhouse can
be made ready for occupancy again.
The flower cooler escaped serious
damage, permitting the storage of
cut Bowers to,serve the.. Whites' patrons. * ■'-■•;-■*'■■■■^i-»*----^&*■>':';;■ •■
The fire caught in the coal pit adjoining the 'boiler room, where a'large
number of pasteboard flower boxes
were stored. A group of young peo-,
pie of the Baptist Church, with guests
from Flint and Saginaw, had been
having a wiener roast that evening
and the blankets used to sit on were
rolled up and put in the coal pit on
the flower boxes and it is thought
there might have been sparks from
the bonfire in the blankets.
The fire department responded
promptly, although many firemen
were in bed at the late hour, and
with the use of fog nozzles extinguished in a very commendable manner the roaring fire thatfilled the evening sky.
Mr. White is still confined to his
bed at his home near the greenhouse
because of a broken hip suffered this
spring and his many friends express
a sincere wish that his streak of bad
luck has come ."to an end.

Pasteurization Law
Becomes Effective
In Michigan July 1
July first is the date that Michigan's
new milk pasteurization law takes
effect, reports A. C. Baltzer, extension dairyman at Michigan State College! Beginning then, all milk entering commercial channels must be pasteurized. v
Michigan is the first state in the
nation to enact such a law to safeguard against certain communicable
diseases. The law was passed by the
legislature in 1,947 to give those concerned a year to prepare for it.
Baltzer advises that under th£ new
law, all mill**, to be bottled for retail
trade or used in creameries and
cheese factories must be pasteurized.
An exception is cheese aged for more
than 60 days.
Farmers selling milk to their own
employees at the farm where it is produced are exempt from the provision.
Local health officers can give further details of the new law.

The holler room and office were badly damaged and controls ou the furnace, stoker motor, cooler compressor unit, considerable electric wiring, and_a large stock of flower boxes, baskets, vases, ribbons and supplies were destroyed. A large portion of the cypress framework in the new greenhouse, and the ten by forty foot .sash house were ^ destroyed and more than a thousand panes of glass were broken. While the most of the stock was growing • in fields at this season, a thousand blooming carnation plants, 250 pots of lilies that were about to bloom and fifty geraniums were destroyed. A lemon tree, grapefruit tree and kumquat tree that Ed. had raised as a hobby and were loaded with fruit were apparently destroyed, but it is thought his fig tree will survive the fire. It is expected the loss will run well over $1,000. The new greenhouse and other buildings were well covered with windstorm insurance, but there was' ho fire insurance on the property because of extremely high rates for greenhouses. Cypress roof bars have been ordered from Chicago and the glass has been purchased to replace that which was broken, much of which djd not fall until it had cooled on the day following the fire. ■ Rebuilding was commenced at once and business is being continued at the residence until the greenhouse can be made ready for occupancy again. The flower cooler escaped serious damage, permitting the storage of cut Bowers to,serve the.. Whites' patrons. * ■'-■•;-■*'■■■■^i-»*----^&*■>':';;■ •■ The fire caught in the coal pit adjoining the 'boiler room, where a'large number of pasteboard flower boxes were stored. A group of young peo-, pie of the Baptist Church, with guests from Flint and Saginaw, had been having a wiener roast that evening and the blankets used to sit on were rolled up and put in the coal pit on the flower boxes and it is thought there might have been sparks from the bonfire in the blankets. The fire department responded promptly, although many firemen were in bed at the late hour, and with the use of fog nozzles extinguished in a very commendable manner the roaring fire thatfilled the evening sky. Mr. White is still confined to his bed at his home near the greenhouse because of a broken hip suffered this spring and his many friends express a sincere wish that his streak of bad luck has come ."to an end. Profession Honors Local Engineer JOHN P. GOGGIN Pasteurization Law Becomes Effective In Michigan July 1 July first is the date that Michigan's new milk pasteurization law takes effect, reports A. C. Baltzer, extension dairyman at Michigan State College! Beginning then, all milk entering commercial channels must be pasteurized. v Michigan is the first state in the nation to enact such a law to safeguard against certain communicable diseases. The law was passed by the legislature in 1,947 to give those concerned a year to prepare for it. Baltzer advises that under th£ new law, all mill**, to be bottled for retail trade or used in creameries and cheese factories must be pasteurized. An exception is cheese aged for more than 60 days. Farmers selling milk to their own employees at the farm where it is produced are exempt from the provision. Local health officers can give further details of the new law. ffcy •*.-% Lutheran Church And Sunday School- Picnic This Sunday Th6 Annual Congregation-Sunday School* picnic of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, of Clare, Will be held in the X_lare Tourist Park on Sunday afternoon, June 27.
