Scarecrow's fear (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fire

'scarecrow's fear' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for fire that I've seen before include "Blaze - discharge" , "Shoot; sack" , "Flames; passion" , "cut" , "Sack; conflagration" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
