Hail Damages Crops.

Friday afternoon during the rain there was a streak of territory just south of the city that was visited by hail. The corn at the college, op the Drake farm, the Leslie Clark farm, the Mrs. Alter farm, was pretty badly damaged. The hail seems to have hit a narrow strip from- the college to the-Jones farm'just this side of Pleasant Ridge. Much of the crops that were hi twere possibly totally ruined.
