Hail Devastates Umatilla County Fields in Two Sectors
Oregon records a violent hailstorm in two sections of Umatilla County last Saturday afternoon. Hail up to two inches long smashed wheat and alfalfa, with three quarters of a mile wide path and up to three to four inches deep on the ground. A cloud burst followed, flooding gulches and washing away bridges, houses, machinery, and livestock, threatening Athena’s water supply after the reservoir dam was washed out. The Cunningham Sheep & Land Company suffered heavy losses with fifty to one hundred acres of alfalfa ruined. farm teams were forced to abandon in-field operations amid runaways.
