The Judge states that the winds
continued for several days, the wind
being strong and sweeping from the
stubble fields of Kansas, brought a
withering heat that completely laid
waste the fields in the state. When
the winds finally subsided there was
absolutely no corn left green in the
state and the result was that many
of the farmers suffered severe priva
tions. W. C. PARRI0TT INJURED
