Nine years ago this July a heavy
hail visited portion of Ordway,"
said Charles Hensler, "but the dam
age was not extensive. The hail
wiped out every thing in it's path but
1t was very narrow strip" That
year Mr.. Hensler had garden truck
stripped but practically all of it came
out and made fair production.
James Cavanaugh lost hundred
acres OF grain. 90 OF wheat and 40 Of
oats, however, he had the crop insur-
ed for $1,000 against hail so his loss
will be Iightened. II paid SIS for
this Insurance.. he said, "but figured
that " 1 raised q crop s75 would not
amount TO much. while il got halle d
out that was a small sum to spend to
get $1,000 in return.r His grain was
pounded into the ground.
"In the twenty years have lived
here have never seen damaging
hail storm hit Oidway before last
week." said d. @. Roberts. ut has
hailed In other portions near by, how
ever. My fruit was. not dsmaged in
the least"
Mr.. Roberts states that this year we
are much 10 danger OF halls as the
air currents sbove are cool and have
been all season. He says that when
the air Is pure. thstis free OF dust,
hall does not form, but II there Is
dust in the air the moisture gathers
around it and begins. to freeze. As IL
rolls over and over In the air or clouds
1t enlarges as the moisture Is collect
ed. That accounts for hail stones in-
variably having = spot Of dirt 10 or
near the center.
e e Hosler lost his 40 acres OF
wheat on the Mrs. O q. Kelley place
southeast OF town. 1t was heading
out and the heads were either strip
ped OF the grain or cut ofI, leaving
the crop practically worthless. He
had it Insured and 80 his loss will be
lessened.

Hail Does Some Damage

/
One OF the latest hail storms to have
visited this county, struck 10 the
district Of the old Boston farm and
the vicinity south and south west
OF there on Wednesday afternoon.
Damage on some of the farms was
heavy. Hailstones we're larger than
during the storm OF last Friday morn
Ing.
During the past ten days various
portions Of Crowley county. and sec.
tions surrounding, have been visited
by hail and some damage done, how
ever. the crop losses will not be 80
great as was estimated last Friday
morning after the hardest aud most
general Of the storms. Cantaloupes
are perhaps the hardest hit but many
OF the fields which last Friday and
Saturday appeared to be total loss
are coming out, while many OF those
fields which we're found to be ruined
have been rerlanted. Beets were cut
considerably but in practically all
cases where the excessive water did
not run over or stand on the fields the
beet plants are recovering nicely.
Oats, wheat, barley and other grains
suffered 10 some portions OF the c0un-
ty and 10 few cases the loss was to
tai, while many nelds suffered dam
age.
Just what the damage Is cannot be
de etermined. but with cantaloupes 1t
is estimated at from 25 to IS per cent
OF the acreage, taking the county
over. With grain IL is much less
while with beets the percentage is
very small.
Since then other sections have been
visited. Monday night the Box Springs
district receiving some, but not dam
aging the crops to any extent. 10 the
vicinity OF Olney Spring a light fall
occurring. Rocky Ford had severe
fall also on Monday night and Has
we'll on Tuesday.
James G. Close, agriculturist for
the National Sugar Manufacturing
Co, states that there was no hail
damage done north Of Sugar City but
that south aod southwest crops were
dem aged To quite an extent.
According to e e. HOsler. q repre-
sentative Of the 8 A. Gerard COM
pany, commission merchants, the can
talOupe loss as q result uf the hail and
rain Of last Friday morning is 33 per
cent of the acreage 10 the county. II
was estimated that there were be-
tween 1900 and 1900 acres planted TO
cantsloupes and Of that acreage 1t IL
believed that between 400 and $50
acres we're damaged to total loss.
Mr.. Hosles .Avs y few figures Of the
| zelda he had visited and noted ss dam
aged. ss follows:
| o. s. Mitchell, SO per cent Of loss.
E e. Hosler, Is acres lost.
S. S. ,Spillers, 20 acres.
Thns. James. 8 acres.
T. M. Baker, 10 acres.
1 I. W. Wilson, s acres.
l. Timi, 10 acres.
G. r. Foster, 5 acres.
T. W. Matthews, I acres.
Mrs. Augusta Helms, 2 acres.
H. NJ Warden, 4 acres.
II. Woodruff. 5 acres.
These losses are but u few but are
scattered over wide area and indi-
cate what some Of each OF theif
neigh bors lost. Most OF thuse lost have
replanted and II the frost holds OF un.
til between October l and 5. II Is
quite likely that they can harvest
very good crop Of melons. coming in
for the best part of the late markets.
Mr.. Hosler states that the apples on
the Wintermute place are either
knocked of or split and bruised and
that cherries were ruined on the
same place.
