Storm Knocks Down Grain

A heavy rain storm gathered
south of town Tuesday evening
and broke over the prairie about
six o'clock. In places the down.
pour was quite heavy and out on
| the point south of Keuterville it
assumed almost the proportions
| |of a cloudburst. At this place
1.-THE rain developed into a steady
shower but in the Denver ano
Fem sections it fell in sheets
and was accompanied by suffici-
ent wind to drive the storm to
some extent, thereby proving
disasterous to many fields OF
heavy grain. A fine forty-acre
field of exceptionally heavy wheat
on the Eckerman farm east OF
town was laid flat on the ground
by the storm and, according to
reports. a number of other fields
on the prairie suffered fully as
much. 1t is doubtful if these
fields will rise again sufficiently
to permit of harvesting the grair
and the loss will therefore bt
quite heavy, although much o.
the grain can be CLEANED in th'
fields by the cattle and hogs
Just how heavy the damage wa
to the fall crops is impossible t.
determine at this time. TIL
benefit of the rain to the sprinI
sown grain will be material an
will make up in part for the loss
es sustained in the fields whic
fell before the storm.

WINONA WAFTINGS.

A good many of the Winona
people went down to Kamiah
Saturday to celebrate.
A. L. Harchelrode has just
finished putting up his crop of
alfalfa and reports a good yield
for the first crop.
Mr.. and Mrs. Doc Morris. of
Kamiah, spent Sunday at the big

with old time friends.
Herman Yates is hauling lum-
ber from Cottonwood for some
new buildings he is erecting on
the land he has leased.
Pitman Atwood spent the 4th
visiting his parents and attend
ing the big meeting. Mr.. At
wood is assistant cashier Of the
Bank of Kooskia.
We heard some very commend
able remarks passed by some of
our well-to-do farmers regarding
the editorial in the Chronicle on
the matter of clearing the land
of mustard. Keep the good
work going Mr.. Editor as you
are hitting the nail on the head.
A. C. Higgins returned from
Colorado Friday evening where
he had been called to see his
father who was hurt some time
before and was reported to be in
a bad condition. Mr.. Higgins
says the old gentleman had died
on Friday before he arrived and
was buried the next day, so Mr..
Higgins was unable to see him.
The big meeting at-the Union
Church is proving to be better

, some people coming from Koos-
!, kia, Kamiah and Grangeville.

ed in marriage Tuesday evening

A BAD BLAZE
AT WH|LEBIRD
Salmon River Metropolis Suf-
fers Another Serious Loss
Fires Seem of Frequent Oc-
currence There.

Fire of an unknown origin de-
stroyed three buildings. mer-
chandise and livery stocks and
five horses last night, the loss
amounting to about Sc, 900, which
is partially covered by insurance.
The fire was discovered shortly
after midnight and at that time
the entire upper portion of the
livery barn was in flames. 1t
appears the fire started in the
loft of the barn and the flames
spread with such rapidity that
five horses were cremated, says
a Whitebird dispatch to Satur-
days Lewiston Tribune.
The livery barn was conducted
by Joe Davis and the building
was owned by Charles Wilson.
Mr.. Davis was successful in saw
ing all but one of his horses and
much of his equipment and sup
plies. Four horses belonging to
patrons were burned and includ-
ed in the number was a very val
liable heavy draft team belong
ing to Clarence Jillson. The
Davis loss will amount to sever
al hundred dollars without insur-
ance and the loss to Mr.. Wilson
will be about $1,000 which is
fully covered by insurance.
The w. A. Newman restaurant
was next swept by the fire and
the loss sustained by Mr.. New
man will be about $1,000 with
insurance to the amount of $500.
The J. E. Preston building,
valued at $4O0, with no insur-
ance, was next burned. This
building was occupied by the
Whitebird Harness company but
the greater part of the stock and
equipment were saved.
A. O. Hess suffered the loss of
a new wagon, contents and a sci
of double harness and carried nc
insurance.
The burned district is located
in the south end of the town anc
but for the absence of wind it is
probable the entire business
district would have been wiped
out.

Stock Market Report.

Following is a report of the
stock market at Portland for the
week ending July 3:
Receipts for the week have
been Cattle, 1907; Hogs, 6313;
Sheep, 34O4.
The Fourth of July let pleasure
interfere with the receipts in all
lines, Monday and Tuesdays
gathering being much below nor
NAL. Quality continues medio-
ere. Six seventy-five was the
high spot for steers of fair quail
ity. Cows and heifers in proper
ton.
Hog trade started this weeks
session at not far from steady
compared with last weeks close.
Tops sold at $3.50 and bulk at
close to that figure. Trade ap-
pears to be on a steady basis at
around prevailing prices.
Sheep receipts appear to be on
an unsteady footing. Not enough
coming forward to really test the
market. Lambs naturally, un-
less they show quality, have a
downward tendency.

Installed a Public Fountain

The First National Bank and
the Cottonwood Mercantile Co.
showed their progressive spirit
this week by installing a fine
sanitary drinking fountain in
front of their places of business.
The fountain is a nicely enameled
affair and will furnish a con-
slant flow of pure, cold mountain
water and should be highly ap-
preciated by the. public during
the warm summer months. 1t is
the first of it's kind to be installed
in Cottonwood and speaks highly
for the progressive spirit of the
firms which installed it. The
fountain certainly tops out the
new cement sidewalk in fine
style and the next improvement
we expect to see in that vicinit!
will probably be cluster lights
Let them come!

Will Lose An Eye

1t is reported locally that Char
lie Crichton passed through on
the train the first of the week for
Spokane where he went to re-
ceive treatment for badly in
iured eye. 1t seems that he was
employed recently in building
fence across the river and the
wire he was stretching broke and
,ne end struck him across the
eve, breaking the pupil. He was
brought out to Grangevilie but,
as the doctors there were unable
to properly treat his case, he
went on to Spokane the next
morning and perhaps had the
lamaged optic removed. Hl'
many friends here hope his IN
Jury may not prove more serious
than is reported.
