-CREATEST PRECIPITATION
IN sHosHoNE COUNTY

A circular letter issued by Edward
l.. Wells. director for the Idaho Sec
ton of the U. S. weather bureau.
gives the following facts about the
unusual weather conditions prevail
ing in January.
The month was much colder than
usual having the lowest minimum
as well as the heaviest
snowfall on record for January. Only
twice since records have been kept
has the mean temperature been lower.
The temperature was below normal
over practically the entire state, the
deficiency amounting to more than s
degrees in places. The temperature
was variable. Ehe cold period that
eliminated on the 9Th was the most
severe in recent years. While it was
in progress the Boise river was frozen
over in places and the Snake river
was filled with floating ice The pre-
cipitation was unevenely distributed,
being unusually heavy in the north
ern counties and below normal in the
south. Most Of the precipitation oc-
Cured as snow. Precipitation was
unusually frequent from the Sth to
the Gath, and during that period traf-
fic on branch railroads in the noun
tains was impeded. Ehe ground re-
NAMED frozen throughout the month
So that, except where blocked with
snow, wagon roads were good.
Low Temperature Noted.
The mean temperature was % de-
grees, which is degrees below nor
NAL. The highest monthly mean was
800 degrees, at Garnet, Gilmore coun-
ty, and the lowest was 1913 degrees, at
kllBOre, Fremont county. Inc u!SHeSt
temperature was 81 degrees, al Lew
iston, Nez Perez county, on the 3rd
and the lowest was AZ degrees below
at Pierson, Custer county, on the 9Th.
The greatest daily range was II de-
grees at Pierson on the 9Th. The
greatest monthly range was Sc degrees
at Pierson.
The average precipitation was 2.5G
inches, which .0S of an inch below nor
NAL The greatest monthly was 1911
inches at Grand Forks, ShoshOne
county, and the least was .25 of an in
CHI, at Oakley, Cassia county The
greatest amount in any 24-hour per-
iod was 2.20 inches, at Moscow. La
tab county, on the 18TH The average
snowfall was 29.1 inches. The great
est snowfall in any 24-hour period was

This extensive operation employs a
force of 600 men all told and yields
10000 tons Of ore per month that af-

purposes of about $1.62 per ton Of ore
mined, which amounts to splendid an
nual dividends in the aggregate. This
comparatively narrow margin of pro-
fit per ton, however, would be serious
ly affected by any material drop in
present metal prices. due to tariff
agitation or increased mining costs,

The Morning mine Of this company
still continues to develop in "A very
satisfactory manner from a standpoint
of ore tonnage, but the refractory ma

During the middle of the year this
great mining institution seemed to be
feeling the effect OF weak develop

close of the year. however, current re-
port indicates it's early acquisition of
some of the choicest developed ore re-
sources of the district and It's con

This company employs a large army
Of men and has one of the most eff

ments of any mining company in the
United States, which is a big capital

This mining organization has been

who after a number of years service
with this company, resigned during
the summer and his place was taken
by Mr.. Harry l.. Day, former owner
manager Of the famous Hercules mine

organizers and operators in the dis
