Saturday afternoon in not being
hard hit by the storm. In part oi

Renrock, there was a regular cloud
burst. At Renrock the creek rose to
within II inches of the 1913 flood
and took away the covered bridge

lacked but few inches of getting
in the store. The store at Wood
grove was flooded At Belle Valley
the water reached depth of from
four to seven feet in part of the
town.
The writer made a trip Sunday
through the storm damaged sec
tions. We found hundreds of acres
of fine corn destroyed; also wheat
and hay in the shock were washed
away, and in many places badly
damaged roads and bridges.
At Renrock we saw our good pen
Gil pusher Mr.. Thorla, from "across
the stormy waters The flood
stopped just short of getting in on
the floor of his residence. Because

COUNTY VISITING BOARD
AT COUNTY HOME

In a visit that combined business
with pleasure, five members of the
county visiting board spent several
hours at the county home late
Thursday afternoon. This was the
first visit made by the board since
Superintendent and Mrs. Dale Ellis
took over the home -four years ago.
But from the way things look at the
home and on the farm, they have
managed to get along very well
without any "visitations." With Mr..
and Mrs. Ellis the board went over
the building from basement to gar
rett, finding everything in good or
der. 1t was just supper time when
we came to the dining room, where
the inmates of the home eat, and a
meal to which anyone could do JUS
tice was on the table. Everything
on the tables in both dining rooms
was raised on the home farm.
At present there are 40 inmates
of the home. At the barn 1T was
milking time and seven fine Ayr
shire and five Jersey cows were IN
the nice, clean stalls. On the farm
are six other COWS with their calves
-24 cattle on the farm in all. They
also pasture so head Of sheep. II
acres of wheat were harvested this
year, and threshing would nave
been done this week had there not
been so much rain; SO acres OF al
falfa and timothy hay were harvest
ed and four acres Of oats. There are
26 acres of very fine corn, also 1s
acres of good potatoes.
The hospital was. also visited, where
80 patients can be cared for, and
IA beds are now occupied-12 pay
patients and two inmates. There
are three nurses in charge. May
Fox and Thelma Smith are day
nurses, and Lulu May Schlotzhauer
is on night duty.
At short business meeting, fol-
lowing the inspection, F. B. Kraps
was elected president and Stella
Durbin secretary of the board.
One of the things that would seem
badly needed at the home is an cleo
trio mangle. Since so many pa
tients are being cared for in the
hospital there are often 200 sheets
a week in the laundry. Four cleo
trio irons are in use for couple or
days a week. The board recommend
ed that the county commissioners
consider the purchase of this ap-
pliance, in the interest Of efficiency
and economy.
