Rock Hill, S.C., March 27—One thousand chickens, ranging from a few days of age to several months, were burned last night on the Burr Clover farm of A.F. Ruff near Rock Hill, in a fire which destroyed the chicken houses there. Effort to check the blaze were futile. The loss is partially covered by insurance.
Mr. Ruff today placed an order by wire with a poultry farm in Kentucky to ship him 1,000 young chicks to replace those burned. They are to be shipped today.
