Pick Ups

No complaints are heard now
from the farmers about not get
ting rain enough some of those
who had their crops washed out
think they had too much but new
er mind there is every chance of
raising crop even if it does
have to be replantcd.
The main center of attraction
these days is the Cilnarron river.
If the person that named the riv-
er could have stood on its banks
Saturday morning would not
have thought the name suitable
for it did not summer, it was
raging foaming tide. The roar
of the water could be heard four
or five miles. While standing
on the bank one could see rail-
road timber, lumber of all sorts,
roots, large trees and some hogs
and cattle also have been seen.
Some even reported finding pill
lows and rocking chair. Last
Friday night about ten thirty
the phone message came to
Uneda to warn the river people
that the flood was coming. Vir-
gel Keltner was the only one that
could be awakened on the phone
line so he went down by Will
Barragree's and together they
went to the Rhodes and Tom
Barragree homes but Mr.. Rhodes
said there surely could be no
danger but between daylight and
sun up he changed his mind for

large cottonwood trees are the
river has made its channel. They
lost about sixty fruit trees and
good many large cottonwood
trees, besides having their house
moved from its foundation and
all that saved their house from
going was that It lodged against
some trees and the shop. This
was the highest that the water
had ever been known to rise at
the Rhodes place, Mr.. and Mrs.
Rhodes having made their home
there for thirty.four or five years
so they thought they were above
the high water mark. Mr..
Rhodes loss will be several
thousand dollars as his alfalfa
and hay lands are ruined for
some time. The river is run
ming under part of their house
now and as soon as it can be arr
ranged the house will be moved
to higher ground. The big iron
