After battling a small grass fire east of Valentine on Monday, the
Valentine Volunteer Fire Department was paged to the report of a grass
fire west of Valentine on Tuesday afternoon.
Valentine and Kilgore firemen were paged out to a grass fire at about 4:50
Central Time southwest of Crookston on South Crookston Road by the Nelson
place.  Approximately 5 acres burned in the grass fire thought to have
been started by lightning.  Firemen from both departments were on scene
for about an hour.
