WORST Hail. STORM IN JEFF.
':RSON CoUNTY'S HISTORY

This section was visited Nv one of
The worst hail storms in jefferson
county last Friday afternoon. abou,
$3.50, doing heavy damage to frail
and vegetable crops, roofs of green.
houses, dwellings,, and various other
buildings.
As usual thing such storms have
been only about half u mile wide. trSt
Fridays storm reached from Httle
way north of Arvada to goth avenue,
OF further, and seemed to spend its
greatest force in Clear Creek Valley
and on Wheatridge moro particularly
ON West 44th and West 3Sth Ave
nues.
Some of Arvada's citizens who
CHANGED to be in Denver during the
storm were surprised ON their way
home on Federal Boulevard, to meet
cars which were badly battered and
which were soaked with rain and
plastcrcd over with leaves and sprips
of trees. There occupants were still
white with fright, and it was evident
they had taken refuge under the
trees along the wayside and had en-
countercd II most unusual experience
some of the auto tops being cut thru
by the hail stones, some of which
measured five and half inches in
circumference. Coming thru Clear
Creek Valley half or three quarters
of an hour after the storm had pass
ed there still were visible hundreds
of hail stones MS largo MS hens eggs.
Many window lights in the resi-
dences of the district were broken.
and patent roofing of all kinds OF.
flat roofs suffered much damage,
not only from being permanently i'm
paired, but the buildings were flood
ed with water and ceilings and the
contents of the buildings were dam
aged.
/. At Graul Brothers Greenhouse on
Wheatridge, perhaps the worst dam
age was done to any individual prop
crty, when $1,000 square feet Of
gla1s out OF $4,000 squass feet In all,
was demolished, entaifin& 3'lSXs Of
more than $4,000, only part Of
which WIS covered by insurance.
The damage done to the growing
plants and flowers in the houses was
considerable.
Stock exposed TO the storm STAN
pedcd and jumped fences, md teams
ran away or became almost unman-
ngeablc in many instances.
Mr.. Kern who works for Evans q
Bennett was knocked unconscious by
"A large hail stone which struck him
back of the ear ms he was bending
over TO unhtch the team hc was dri-
wing. The team ran away md was
caught by Mr.. Coin, who tclepiioncd
VIM. Bennett, who rot hldro rlrl ~
to take ear and take him to College
Avenue, where they were caught,
having run from Griffith.
The excavation which was Just
completed the day before, for the
Continental Oil Company, WINS filled
to the top with water, making very
dangerous place as it was fourteen
feet deep, and began caving in from
the sides. IL carried down cotton
wood tree that stood on the bank of
the Wadsworth dich and this broke
the ditch which was put into big
tile last spring, by taking out several
joints Of tile.
