MIGHT
COOLEST FOR
z YEARS
AT ZERO
IN EARLY MORNING
Temperature Climbs Rapidly as
Day Advances and Worst Of
Cold Wave Has Passed Is the
Belief,

There is probably no one in Albu-
querque who will deny that saturday
night was u very Geld night. Few
people, however. are aware of the
fact that a new low temperature rec
ord was set for Albuquerque during
the twelve hours from shutdown to
sunrise. At $3.50 O'Clock sunday
morning reliable thermometers showed
a temperature of zero, the lowest tenn
perature recorded here for twelve
years last past. AZ : O'Clock the
temperature was > above, this also be-
Ing lower than the last record, which
curiously enough was ON the third day
OF May. 1902. when the temperature
dropped suddenly one night to 3 above
zero, during a blizzard of short dur
alton,
Zero weather is not cold weather
for many parts of this country. Den
lVer had Is below at the same time and
all northern New Mexico was well be-
low the zero mark But 1t was suffi-
GENTLY cold to suit Albuquerqueans
The oldest citizen didn't remember a
night so cold and people who sleep
out Of doors and in tents were forced
TO hunt for more cover and light their
oil stoves. To a good many health
seekers. who were unprepared for the
extreme cold weather, the blizzard
now passing cause much discomfort.
Water DiDes all over the city were
frozen during the night, wherever
they were exposed, and In several
cases reported the entire water service
Of large houses was put out of COM
mission.
The Woodward green houses in old
Albuquerque suffered severely from
the cold. The main water pipe which
feeds the boiler of the heating plant
frozc during the hight and the entire
plant went out Of commission, doing
| considerable damage to tender vegeta-
bics. A number Of instances we're re-
ported where water pipes broke and
the cold snap will at least bring good
times for the plumbers, who will be in
demand all over albuquerque today.
Sunrise brought a decided change In
weather conditions. The thermometer
~ose rapidly and az 3 O'Clock yesterday
afternoon a general thaw set in. Al
though the cold last night was again
severe IL was not equal to that of the
night before, and the worst of the
blizzard Is believed to have passed.
Warmer weather Is the prediction for
today and tomorrow.

lists and engineers for a great many years.
Attempts at retaining the peat bogs to

Peat has been successfully used as a fuel,
but due to the large amount of water con-
tanned in the peat. 1t is necessary to dry
It for q long time before II can be burned.
Peat constitutes a fairly serviceabls fer
tliAer; but due to the large amount OF
tsnnin, organic acids, iron salts, and gases
contained in the peat, 1t Is necessary to
cure It by long exposure to the atmos-
phsre before It can be applied to the soil.
The tAnnin and organic acids in the green

would permit the farmers 10 drive various

to illuminate and heat their homes, and

Despondent because of the trouble into

stay there and got into jail in Omaha again
Tuesday morning. He is now in the county
Jail under careful guard.
