RAIN FALL THAT
WAS WELCOMED

The heavy rainfall that occurred
early Wednesday morning came at a
very opportune time. 1t will have
a tendency to extinguish the forest
fires that have been raging on the
east, north and west side of this
city. 1t will also be of great bene-
fit to the cranberry crops which
are reported quite large this year and
help out late potatoes and corn. This
is the first heavy shower or rain
fall we have had since the month of
June. T his section of the state
could stand even a heavier rainfall
than we received this morning.
