The downpour of rain and the de-
structive winds which were in action
in Chickasha and vicinity at an early
hour this morning, caused a heavy
loss to Grady county. according 10 in
formation obtained from various
sources.
Probably the major loss was to the
first cutting Of the Grady county
alfalfa crop, 90 per cent Of which is
believed to be damaged. The crop
was only slightly damaged in the
fields where the hay had not been
cut but where the feed was on the
ground and ready for the bailer, the
heavy rains practically placed the
product on the worthless list, ac-
cording to J. W. Owens, county
agent and several local dealers.
