HAIL AT ELKHAET, IND. 



It is reported that about seventy- 

 five per cent of the greenhouse glass 

 ,it Elkhart, Ind., was broken by a hail 

 storm on the afternoon of July 11. The 

 damage to outdoor crops, though ser- 

 ious, was more than counterbalanced 

 by the good effects of the copious rain- 

 fall that accompanied the hail. 



Fred P. Livengood, proprietor of 

 greenhouses on South Main street, is 

 said to have lost about eighty per cent 

 of his glass. Mr. liivongood also suf- 

 fered a shock from a bolt of lightning; 

 he was paralyzed for a few moments, 

 but was not permanently injured. 



William Currier, on La Salle avenue, 

 reports that fully 1,000 panes of glass 

 were destroj'ed at his greenhouses. 



Hugh Hills, 930 Prairie street, re- 

 ports a loss of 500 panes. 



Mrs. E. M. Bullock. 803 West Frank- 

 lin street, states that a great propor- 

 tion of the glass in her greenhouse was 

 broken, but the full amount of damage 

 had not been estimated. 



Frank J. Bevan, ()01 Baldwin street, 

 reports between 200 and 300 panes of 

 glass broken at his place. 



The B. E. Sassman greenhouse, on 

 Adamsville road, also suffered consid- 

 erable damage from the breaking of 

 glass. 



W. H. Troyer. on West Indiana ave- 

 nue, lost about 500 lights and the hail 

 did considerable damage also to his out- 

 door plants. 



McPherson, Kan. — Chas A. Simonson 

 is erecting another greenhouse, 32x8(», 

 which will be use.l mostly for growing 

 lettuce, as there has recently been a 

 strong demand for that vegetable. When 

 this new house is completed, the range 

 will contain a total of lo.OfXt square 

 feet of glass.
