(By Associated Press) St. Johnsbic-y, July discarded cigarettes plus the prolonged drought were responsible officials said yesterday lor an aggregate fire loss o. $22,000 in this vicinity in the past 24 hours. Investigation yesterday convinced fire officials the blaze which swept the East St. Johnsbury creamery Wednesday night had been started by three 9-year-old boys, who entered the building to enjoy a secluded smoke.

At. the same time a blaze which de- i stroyed buildings on two laims at! Sutton was attributed to cigarettes tossed away by a couple attending a nearby dance. At both fives the drought helped to mako the loss greater. Fire departments from Lyndonville and Barton stood by helplessly as the farms burned down, at Sutton unable to pour water on the fires because all nearby brooks were dry. At the creamery nro soma water was pumped from a nearby river but sand sucked into the fire fighting apparatus considerably damaging several pieces of equipment.
