Show GREAT SKOW BUCKERS. Tin- lri'Ttvy Kitulm-s Work i:i(;li1 Tlirmi';1i Six lf-l r Snow. The Cu'ion Pacific company has had wonderfully good luck this winter with its road between Ogden and McCammon. Scarcely a winter ever passed without the ( rains b'i ng st nek in the snow on Cache Hill or o:i the sagebrush plains above Uattlc Creek, from two to leu days at. a stretch. The absence ab-sence of the wonted severe weather in these parts is not accountable for this, as (he drifting has never been heavier nor the downfall of snow greater than that recorded for ! : the present winter. The snow in ! ! the neighborhood of Oxford has ! i been from live lo six feet deep on i j the level; the deepest, say old resi j I dents, that they have seen in those ! ! parts for over ten years. The j change in the route of the road and the immensely increased power of the broad-gauge engines over the doughty little -Pulling Uillies" of yore, cut a big figure in the - matter of bucking snow. |
