the northeast counties showed "A slight
deficiency. In general. the temper

from the central valleys westward.
On the other hand these counties were
generaily greatly deficient In precipi-

g|reatly In excess. The rainfall on the
2sth-3Oth and the Isl OF May was
practically all OF Union, eastern san

Great damage resulted to road
