RAIN AND HAIL SWEEP THIS DISTRICT The month-long drought ended on Friday afternoon last ,when Seaforth district was visited by a very heavy rain storm. accompanied by one of the worst ]tail storms ever witnessed here. The hail stones' were very large but as the crops are not rip- ened yet, little damage resulted. as there was not a high wind. Lightning burned a barn on the Campbell grass farm east of Win- throp and also the barn on the old Menat'y farm north of Cranbrook. A horse was killed In the stable of Mr. Karl Watson, west of Walton. but the bolt did not burn the barn. Many animals are reported to have been killed in the fields. In town, the most serious damage resulted from the freshly -laid street oil being swept on to lawn and Lou- levards by 'flooding waters. Farmers report it was the proverbial "million dollar' rain" coming in time to help the croPs.
