/ LARIMORE, N. D.-A terrible rainstorm
visited North Dakota yesterday and did great
damage to crops, especially In the northern
and central part Of the state, along the line
of the Great Northern. An Immense volume
of water fell along the Hannah branch and in
the vicinity Of Grafton. Large tracts OF grain
are fiat but whether from hail or wind and

are down. At Michigan, Mapes and Lakota,
the wind blew a hurricane several buildings
being demolished. Nn casualties have been
reported. Train No. s. on the Great North
ern, was held an hour at Lakota owing to the
high wind. It is feared the damage from hail
was heavy. At Bowesmont, barn on farm
operated by Robert Delhy was struck by
and totally destroyed. The stock
was saved except one horse but all ma
chinery was destroyed.
$4,000 Acres Destroyed.
Hail struck Lakota last night, travelled
east to within three miles Of this city, then
going south, totally destroying $1,000 acres
of grain and partly damaging all crops In a
space from one mile to three miles wide and
forty miles long A. heavy wind accompanied
the storm, blowing down much grain where
the hail did not strike.
FERGUS FALLS, NINA heavy rain
storm swept over this section shortly after
midnight last might and hail fell in several
places, the towns Of Eagle Lake, Tordensk-

nerve hbres. as well as muscle hbres and
other tissues; It keeps the nerve force
strong; Il aids digestion; Il makes rich,
pure blood and gives strength and health
to those in whom the energies Of the hu-
