IIAHD WIND AND RAIN STORMS Two Storms Sunday Give Generous Samples of Wind and Water. Two storms Sunday wore of a qulto violent nnturc.

One came late Sunday afternoon. The rain was preceded by a hard wind which did considerable damage to trees, especially on the fair grounds nt West Union, whore dozen or more largo ones were blown down and a small barn was demolished. Motorists on No, 11 between West Union and Fayette at the peak of the Btorm say that their cars were nearly blown from the paving, and after the tempest was over the traveling was hindered by trees lying across the concrete. One driver broke a wheel against a tree. It is believed that damage to crops In the north part of the county will be considerable, and one estimate puts the loss of small grain as high as 25 per cent.

The second storm came up Into In the evening and lasted for an hour or more. The wind was violent, though not so strong as in the previous storm, but the rain was torrential and there was some hail with It. For the first time since the storm sewer was put in nenr the W. Garrison pluce, it is said, the water cam'o so fast that the sewer could not carry It away. Elgin vicinity reports small grain flattened and even corn cut off by the combined efforts of wind, rain and hall.

Electric light and telephone poles were torn down, plate glass windows were blown In and roofs, chimneys and windows suffered considerable damage. Fayette had no electric service for four hours when service was resumed for about fifteen minutes at 9:20 and at midnight service had not been resumed.

Miller, Lan sing. HOW TO DISPLAY OLD GLORY With the Fourth of July so near at hand the manner of displaying the flag 1B of more than ordinary Interest. Capt. G. A.

GreaveB, Des Moines, recruiting officer tor tho United States army In Iowa, answers, questions that, perplex the public regarding the prop er method of displaying the national flag. This is done by quoting regulations publlsed by the army. The following explains the position and use of the ling: The Hug should not be hung flat. It should not be festooned over doorways or arches, tied In a bow knot, nor fashioned Into a rosette. When used on a rostrum it should be displayed above and behind the speaker's desk.

It should never be used to cov Jr tho speaker's desk, nor draped ov- ar tho front of tho platform. For this latter purpose, ns well as for decora lions in general, bunting of the nation al colors should bo used, and since the union (blue) always has the place of honor, the colors should bo urrang ed with the blue above, the white in the middle and tho red below. "When the national flag Is hung vertically or horizontally against a wall the union (blue) will be upper most and to the Hug's own right, that Is, the blue should be to the observer's left as he faces the wall. Imagine that the flag Is looking at you "When the national flag and one other flag are displayed together from crossed staffs, as against a wall, tho national flag will be to the flag's own right (as 11 It wore looking at you.) That is, the national flag will appear at the observer's left as he faces the wall. Tho staff will be in front of the staff of the othor flag.

Wheu a number of Hugs iwe displayed In a group, the national (lag will bo In the center or at tho highest point of the group. "When displayed In a church outside of tho chancel, tho national flag will be at tho mlniBter 'B right. When Inside tho chancel, it will be at tho minister's right as he faces the congregation. Flags of other nations, If displayed, will be on the opposite side, across the ulsle or on the opposite wall, of tho church or chupel." AMERICAN LEGION CONVENTION Tho 'convention or tho American Legion of tho Fourth district will bo held ut Marqetto, July 9th. State Commander Glenn C.

Haynes, State Adjutant It. J. Laird and Frank Miles, editor of the Iowa Leglonalro, will bo speakers. The convention has not before been held In this section of the district. GRAIN CUT GREEN WONT "FILL" Another Idea long held by farmers and by many of the scientists working on farm problems seems doomed for tho discard.

This idea Is that small grain can Just as well be cut a little "green" without doing any harm, the theory being that necessary materials to nil out.the unriponed grains uredUx -l the straw anyway and will All out the headB after the grain is cut. But that Idea Just doesn't seem to work, according to some careful work done by L. C. Burnett and A. L.

Bakko of the Farm Crops and Botany departments of Iowa State College. If the grain Is cut green, the straw obtained Is of greater feeding value, H. D. Hughes, head of farm crops Investigations at tho college, points out, but In the tests conducted by Burnett and Bakke, they did not And that the material In the Btraw filled unripened grain. When smnll grain Is ordinarily cut, It often contains 30 to 40 per cent of moisture, but it it Is allowed to remain In the field until fully ripe, tho molBturc content drops to below 20 per cent.

Between these usual time of cutting and the time when the grain is fully grain continues to fill out and so tho longer the crop can be left in the Held, or until it IB ripe, the higher the yield that will bo obtained. fees for the firs Dec. 1, 1929, am totaled $12,067,81 for the whole I WALK ON THE LEFT SIDE Pedestrluna can help prevent accidents and save themselves from Injury If they will walk on the left side walking nloug highways. This makes It possible for them to see and avoid approaching vehicles. The most careful driver is not always able to avoid striking persons walking on the right side of tho road, If the driver must at the same time avoid car coming the other way.

It seems that we now have four bruuehea of executive, Judicial, and Herald. MARRIAGE LICENSES Marriage licenses Issued recently: Clifton C. Bailey, Arlington, to Rose M. Hadd, Elgin. Edward L.

In 1926 It was $1,598,000, and in 1925, when the two- cent tax first started, the six months period brought in $931,144.

In fact, It has averaged a little better than $2,000,000 each year for 10 years.

MAY BE ANOTHER GAS STATION Judging from appearances here Tuesday, there will be another gas and oil station erected here. Several men were measuring and Inspecting the lot owned by the Standard Oil Just south of tho Burkholder residence. They wore also consulting blue prints, all of which Indications, according to our detective, point to something do lug. Added to these manifestations is the fact that the deal by which the company expected to make use of Nels Louvering's corner building fell through.

As the Standard Oil Co. has owned tho aforementioned lot for several years, the guesB that there 1B to be another stution seems fairly good.
