High winds and rain struck Hunt¬ ley last Wednesday, June 25th. The most severe damage was caused to the Custom Farm Service liquid Feitilizer plant on Main Slreet. Here, severe winds sucked out the front wall of the second story on the Main Street side of the building. Workmen froni the concern had the wall   removed   the   following   day
and at the present time are finish¬ ing  up work  enclosing the second story store  front.
A tree on Church Street in front of the H. D. Catty Company was blown down striking a telephone cable. The cable was repaired that eveaipg by Illinois Bell Telephone workmen,  who at 2;00 a.m., acci¬
dentally set off the Huntley fire alarm. The alarm again was trig¬ gered accidentally on Sunday, June SOth   during  a thunderstorm.
Lightening is blamed for burning out the Huntley water pump meter, causing a loss of pressure through¬ out the community. This situation has since been remedied.
