Description
Photograph of fire fighters putting out a fire in a walnut grove, [s.d.]. A wagon can be seen at center, with one horse hitched to it at right. A man can be seen seated in the drivers seat and is looking behind him at a fire fighter spraying water on a fire in the walnut grove behind him. The fire fighter is holding on to a hose attached to a contraption in the wagon bed. Smoke is visible throughout. The man could possibly be spraying pesticide on the trees instead of putting out a fire.
