The MOST SNOW
Little to Be Seen on the
PrairieS, the Chinook
Taking 1t Off

There is more snow in Lewiston
than in any other point in the sur
rounding country, according to state
ments of farmers in the city from the
surrounding country.
The reason is that a high chinook
prevailed at all upper points through
out the week. and has cut the snow
rom the roads and fields, while here
N the valley there has been no wind
ana the snow is still covering the
ground.
We generally start from home in the
snow and reach Lewiston in the mud,''

'nis morning we reversed the process.
we started from home In the mud, and
ended in Lewiston in the snow Any

The same is true of the Tammany
