Enclosed with check for another
years subscription to the Journal
H. w. Judd sends US from St. John,
Wash, several items of interest
about that locality. He states that
the farmers there were blowing up
to the first of December, but on that
date about foot of snow fell, which
gave them good sleighing for the
remainder of the winter. In Febru-
ary they experienced about two
weeks of zero weather. Rain and
Chinook" winds caused roads to
be washed to rock bottom, bridges
flooded out and trains delayed.
Rural delivery routes had not been
