The Roy Spanish American gives
this account of the hail storm east
of Roy last week:
Damage is reported as far north
as Ernest Parks, east of Mills, and
to and beyond Solano. The dam
age is worst in patches. some fields
in the path Of the storm being in
jured but little while others are n
total loss. One of the worst spots
was at Paul Anderson's farm, three
miles west of Roy. The roof of
his house was beaten and torn up
as if by bullets and he has recover
ed the rubberoid with shingle
roof. His crops and even the prai-
RE grass in the pasture are beaten
off to the ground. Among the
heavy loses are: John Shamblin,
7. o. Scott, Chris Willers, T. r..
Pint. Charles DePew, f. A. Bruce,
s. Ratcliff, the Wendland Broth
ers, Henry Farr, Ben Gruning and
all between them and Solano, the
hail doing most damage west CT
that town.
Reports from Mills are that
Harry Brennan, Bill Mericle, Ira
Thetfod Jess Grimstead, Mr.. Pate
and many others in that vicinity
are losers from serious to total loss
Cellars were flooded and washed
full of hail stones.
A conservative estimate OF the
damage to wheat alone is $1,000
The corn Is badly torn and stripped
by the hail, but the excess of moist
ure may benefit it enough to offset
the damage.
Mr.. Cole has the hardest luck Of
any, he believes. His wheat was
hailed out, but there was no rain
with 1t, so he can't go to blowing
for another crops.
Many of the losers had insur-
ance, others had none. The Mutual
Hail association will have losses up
to their limit of 10 per cent assess

quested the opinion of several of those
who have done much for aviation in
