HELP TO CROPS

This section was visited early this
morning by q heavy rain which at
times approached the dimensions Of
a downpOur but which was also
spread over the early hours OF the
morning and did the vegetation a
world OF good, farmers said this
morning. Reports indicate that the
entire section was affected by the
rain. In the city a total OF .85 inch
fell according to the measurements
by Observer George W NanMetre.
The ground was very dry and
crops badly in need Of rain 50
much In need. 1t is said. that the
rain last night has not fully sup
piled the requirements. The section
has had little moisture to fan throu-
ghout the winter. with only one
snow Of any size. and very few rains
and as consequence the earth was
prepared TO take mp rapidly the
downfall last NIGHT. It was showery
early in the evening yesterday but
the rain did mol reach any severity
until after midnight.
