from northern Iowa indicate that more
or less damage was done at the vorious
points by hail and rain Wednesday

not much damage was done North of

stroyed standing grain and did much
damage to the corn crop. The storm
assumed proportions OF a cloudburst.
The hail storm lasted twenty minutes.
At Whittemore John A. Simpson had
a narrow escape from lightning. He
was working in the field and unhitch-
ed his three horses and was standing
beside one of them to shelter himself
from the storm. A stroke of lightning
struck and killed the horse, and in
falling the horse pinned Mr.. Simpson
to the ground. The other two horses
escaped to the house and the family

more than anything else. 1t may help
out the late potatoes, but the early
ones are past all help.
The corn was beginning to suffer on
account of being so dry, but not as
much as it would If it had not been
such a good stand and clear of weeds.
This part of the country never had
better prospect of all round crops than
now. One carload of new barley
bought here tested AZ pounds to the
bushel and good color. New oats are
above the average weight. With no
destructive storms and a reasonable
late fall. the farmers may expect an
abundant yield of corn.
