About 3,000 acres of fields and orchards have been destroyed by the wide streams of lava sweeping in terrifying cascades down the broad mountain side. More than 1700 homes, including two whole villages, have been crushed and covered by the streams which sometimes were tossed as high as 100 feet in the rir.
