RIVER OVERFLOWS
1 LOWER BOTTOMS
! Registered Almost JO I eel On
Bocal Gauge Tuesday But
Was Tailing Above.
A very sudden and unexpect
ed rise of White River manifest-;
ed itself Sunday and Sunday
night, rising J feet more .Mon
day and registering 10-5 feet on
the local gauge Tuesday morn
ing.
The rise came entirely out of
White River, though it lias
caused the ferry at the Point
above Jacksonport to suspend
business due to back water cut
ting off the approach.
The rise is the result of hea
vy rains in North and North
western Arkansas, which sec
tion experienced a deluge simi
Jlar to that which visited the
i headwaters of the Arkansas and
! some of the Texas rivers.
! The river began falling at
Batesville Monday and not:
much higher water is expected
here. The low bottoms have
lost some corn, though from
what can be learned here, most
j of the corn in the threatened
j bottoms has been gathered.
