Show RECORD SNOW FALL The heavy snowstorm in the valley last Friday evening established a new record for late years. While the storm was of short duration, there was not time lost during the "working" "work-ing" hours, and it is estimated that ihe total precipitation for that evening eve-ning was close to eight inches. The storm was general throughout the uouth part of the state and in Colorado, Colo-rado, and the farmers and those looking for such conditions in preparation prep-aration for the coming season are jubilant. Reports from the mountains moun-tains to the east are to the effect that the snow is heavier than is usual at this time of the season and .with nuch yet to fall and be packed away iihe chances for a shortage of water :'or the coming season is very meager. |
