Show UNUSUAL STORMS IN MILLARD COUNTY This week has been the stormiest that Millaid County has experienced in years. Last Saturday a regular "cloud burst" passed over the county, soaking some sections almost equal to a good irrigation and causing every swale to be filled with rushing water. At Cove Fort, it is reported that travel was actually stopped on the state highway for several hours, although the road was not seriously damaged. So heavy was the downpour down-pour that drivers' vision of the road was cut off. At Flowell considerable damage was done the road by flood waters, while under the Sevier canal project farmers are reported to have used the water that drained into the canal for irrigation purposes. Although the heaviest storm oc-cured oc-cured Saturday, there has been almost al-most continual storm ever Bince. Not a day has passed but there hs been storm clouds and electric storms at different places in the valley, and on several occasions the whole valley has beeu drenched. Progress, Fillmore. |
