WEATHER AND CRoPs.-Frequent
and hard rains the past week have
both assisted and damaged the crops.
On Friday, Saturday and Sunday
nights beating rains attended with
severe wind and lightning, visited
most parts of the county, in many
places washing away or leveling the
small grains and corn. The damage
to the hay not harvested was also
not slight. In the north part of the
county the most damage to crops is
reported. The barn and two horses
belonging to VIM. Nelson at Bosco-
bel, were destroyed by lightning, j..
b. Church of Little Grant lost a
couple OF valuable horses, and Mrs.
Yanausdall of Patch Grove lost q
COW by lightning. The dwelling of
Nathan Fivecoat at Little Grant was
blown off its foundation and landed
some distance away. None of the
family were injured, although in the
house ut the time of the disaster.
The bridges in Mt. Hope and along
the road from Patch Grove to VIVA
lusing are reported swept away by
the flood. We have heard of no fur
Their damage by these storms. -
Everything in the vegetable line and
grain not already ripened is growing
rapidly. The heat for number of
days has been excessive.
