Hurry-Up Storm Delivers Damage (Continued from page 1) Neill on U.S. highway 281 on the Holt-Wheeler county line, report ed an inch of rain Tuesday after noon and strong wind, which drove a water tank about a mile from the place. The rainfall was considered very beneficial as hot winds dur ing the past two weeks had dried • out soil. Atkinson received only a few sprinkles. Spencer, 30 miles north of O’Neill, had considerable wind, some hail and about a quarter of an inch of moisture. The storm arrived at Spencer about an hour after striking O’Neill. The storm came up rapidly in the south and within a few min utes the wind shifted to the north. The Chicago & North Western railroad’s telegraph circuits were knocked out and the Western Un ion circuits into O’Neill were still unserviceable Wednesday after • noon. A mobile telegraph repair crew happened to be stationed in O’Neill on the Burlington side tracks. Their quarters were park ed about one hundred yards from the Ryan barn.

Everyone is wishfully watching the horizon for the approaching cloud that would give promise of a good general rain. Ever in the distance are the roar and whir of the trac tors and harvesting machinery as men strive desperately to get the ripened grain safely out of the . way of possible wind or hail. It seems to be a constant battle with the elements, which all too often win out. Omaha Market Lower-to-Steady Livestock market {rends ranged from steady to lower Monday at Omaha.
