Some Rain
This section was visited by a

past week and in some sections by
waterspouts. Heavy rains on Two

water, and will enable the water
users to secure quite a run of
water A water spout caused a
big flood in Clay creek which swept
everything before It, washing out
the Bourne dam as if it had been
built of paper instead of heavy
stone It barked the water up in
to the measuring station of the
city water supply and caused the
run of muddy water which the city
had for a few hours on Monday.
Nearly the whole farming section
has been given a good wetting at
some time during the week.
