Fan) Ckonttr Aboil St.ZS.SZ.0Oud J2.5Qiut SUMS TOTIL IS wns Heavy Downpour Experienced Foothill District; Some Damage Done HIGHLAND, Oct. 2. (Staff correspondence of THH SUN). Barring a few moments this forenoon, when a rift in tho clouds disclosed a ptch of blue Bky, has there been ought today but clouds and rain for our portion. The not result of the 24 hours ending at 6 o'clock this evening Is .76 of an inch of accumulated moisture.

This makes the storm recoi-a 2.68 inches, and for the season 3.43. An error was made In reporting in this column the rainfall to this date last year. Instead of of an inch which was the record of 1914 it should have been 3.22 inches, which amount fell in a few hours in August of last year. It did considerable damage to tho concrete highway under construction here and caused more damage than benefit in the groves. So far slight damage has been caused by the present downpour.

A break in the North Fork ditch, east of Tlnnge creek in East Hiehlands, did some damage to property owned by John Cleghorn and, of course, temporarily put the North Fork system out of commission. It will probably mean the hauling In of a few hundred loads of new soil In the Cleghorn grove. Dltoh Veeds bebuildlng1 The section of ditch in which the break occurred is considered the weak link la the North Fork systeaa. It extends from Plunge creek east to Oak canyon. The ditch Is wide and shallow, and the grade Is light.

To carry the volume of water to which the company is entitled during the summer months It Is necessary to crowd it to the limit. The addition of any appreciable quantity of storm water causes the ditch to overflow and undermine Its soil bd, which here is 20 feet or more above the adjacent lands. That In what happened Saturday. The rebuifding of this troublesome section will doubtless be the next work undertaken by the directors of the water company. Postponed The first chamber of commerce meeting of the season, which was scheduled to be held this evening, was postponed because of the inclement weather.

Further notice will be given. Highland Flings Mr. and Mrs. Charles L. Foulke of Bakersficld, who are guests at tho Hill home, went to Rialto yesterday to spend a couple of days with Mr.
