| (THERE IS ANOTHER HAYSTACK FIRE AT PHILLIPS CATTLE)…..FIRE CREWS WERE SENT TO THE FEEDLOT NEAR THE NEW RIVER BOTTOM EARLY MONDAY MORNING. AT AROUND ONE IN THE MORNING EMPLOYEES REPORTED A HAYSTACK FIRE. COUNTY FIRE OFFICIALS SAY CREWS WERE ON THE SCENE WELL INTO MONDAY MONITORING AND CONTROLLING THE LATEST BLAZE IN THAT AREA. THE RIVER BOTTOM IN THAT AREA HAS BEEN THE SCENE OF A MAJOR BRUSH FIRE AND SEVERAL FLARE-UPS IN RECENT WEEKS. THE ORIGINAL FIRE REPORTEDLY BURNED SALT CEDER BUSHES, AND THE ROOTS OF THE PLANT WERE VERY DIFFICULT TO PUT OUT ONCE THEY CATCH FIRE. OFFICIALS COULD NOT SAY IF TODAYS FIRE WAS ANOTHER FLARE-UP, OR A SEPARATE INCIDENT. |
