Some damano xns done to the grain by tlio hail, but fortunately tlio path of tl hail stones vag narrow and only a very small por tion of- tho fields suffered from the uyore threshing. llcada of grain which f Stood in the path , of the stornf were about half threshed out and ninny of the stalks wore battered down. The storm approached from tlie south JYOSt, passing over the Littl'p Plain and ig4ncy Plainp and .took its courso north eastward. The hail atones fell in a narrow strip along the southeast border of tho.torm path, and the grain fields . vhioh stood along that route were dam aged in fully 50 per cent of tho yield. Tlio storm approached slowly and jnajefetically. "Writhing black clouds, peftuied with light nim: and reverbera ting witli rolling thunders swept up and overhung tho zenith.

This route alone say t lit? railroad engineers oilers the key to the big Central Oregon country, where bilities development Harrimun already has a sui vev. running up the Deschutes. When construction will be begun is, as always with Hurri man projects in Oregon, a limd matter to predict.
