Barnett Farm Corn Crop Success Due to Dam on Owl Creek Watershed
Photograph of Leroy (Buck) Barnett on farm. Although he had tried every year for seven years he had bee on the place he had not been able to make a crop on the 12 acres of bottomland.

In 1948 Burnett had cut and shocked a crop of oats which he estimated would produce 40 bushels to the acre. A Flood destroyed the shocked grain. Fences also repeatedly washed out.
