Very Heavy Rains All About Us Sunday.

While it was quite showery herej last Sunday, not a great amount of; rain fell in and about Rensselaer. proper, but in north and Oast of town and in about Lee and south and southeast of Rensselaer, and at Remington and Goodland a rain fell, several inches of water being reported to have falletr-in a few hours time. In some localities it is said to have been the heaviest rain they have yet had. Yesterday morning was* rather rainy here, a drizzling rain taking place for a few hours. These rains are making it bad for farmers to finish their harvest and put up hay, and are also interfering with thrashing of wheat, which has now become general.
