Fire destroys Bellevue Feed
Area firefighters battled a blaze last Friday afternoon at Bellevue Feed located on U.S. Highway 287 in the middle of Bellevue. It is believed the fire may have been caused by an electrical issue and the primary structure was destroyed. Bellevue Volunteer Friday Department was assisted by several area departments including Bowie Rural and Bowie City. Electricity was off for a part of the evening after a transformer was destroyed in the blaze. Residents also were asked to conserve water that was in the tower. (Photos by Bonita Jones).

Lake Amon G. Carter has now (Thursday, Nov. 14) re-opened for boating. Selma Parkremains closed due to electric problems caused by high water. Water levels remain above normal and boaters should be cautious of possible debris.
The lake was closed on Nov. 8 after heavy rainfall and a rising lake level. It is considered full at 920 mean sea level and through the weekend it was topped more than 922 msl.
