der. When 1t broke with all its fury,
the storm seemed to carry everything
before IL.
Damage by Hail.
Stones as large as hens eggs fell so
thickly as to completely cover the
ground. and trees withln a path a mile
and a half wide were completely
stripped Of leaves. Two orchards on
valmora ranch. belonging to A. Pond.
Jr. had not leaf left after the storm.
Alfalfa was cut as II with mowers and
all fruit and garden stun was utterly
destroyed. New shingles were broken
az IL with leaden shot and not a pane
OF glass facing the north was left I'M
broken. Several calves wero killed on
the ranch OF Thomas Upton and the
alfalfn was badly cut down. Shade
trees were stripped. not alone OF
leaves. but Of bark also, and telegraph
poles along the railway were riddled.
Railway Damaged.
A washout occurred half way be-
tween Watrous and Shoemaker. sew
erai poles and 100 yards OF fence and
railway embankmcnt having been car
lied away, extending to within six
inches OF the Santa Fe track. Gangs
OF men were at once put to work and,
by working all night the damage was
somewhat remedied by Sunday noon.
Hail Five Feet Deep.
Cattle owners and ranchmen OF long
experience say the storm was the most
furious they ever saw. The hail fell
for more than an hour and In spots
along Coyote creek was still five feet
In depth by actual measurement on
Sunday noon. In spite Of the damage
to fruit and shade trees and to alfalfa
crops and the killing of many calves
ranchmen say the good done by the
storm will far outweigh the damage
Water holes were filed, arroyas ran
with torrents of water, and the rivers
rose rapidly. The moisture was ex
tremely welcome. even at such cost
Thousands Of Birds Killed.
A peculiar incident of the storm wal
the killing of birds by the hail. Under
one tree alone, near Watrous, the dea(
bodies OF twenty-five song birds were
picked up after the storm. and thou
sands must have persisted in the neigh
borhood. Numbers Of gophers ana
moles were likewise flooded out ant

stricken and ran pell-mell through
fences, carrying them down for yasd'
