RECORDS ARE FRACTURED
Rainfall Equal to Four Feet of Snow
Has Fallen Since First of Month.

Only IS days old, and already the
wettest May in 10 years, and with
one exception 1885,, the most moist
In 81 years, is the meteorological
record of the present month. The
total precipitation for the past IS
days was 3.75 inches. The total for
the month in 1896 was 400 inches,
and the forecast for today is prob
able showers"
From all parts of southern Idaho
come cheering reports. The cattle
men and sheepmen are. assured of a
better range than they have had for
years. The fruitgrowers who were
worried over their water supply few
weeks ago, now have enough mois-
ture to carry them through nicely
and the water users who feared a
shortage are now breathing easy.
Storage Increasing.
According to George II. Bliss, the
project manager, the Arrow Rock
reservoir contains 7S,4O0 acre feet of
water. 1t will hold one hundred
thousand more and as the users who
hold prior rights are not taking
water at present, more storage is
possible. The surplus water is be-
ing diverted to the reservoirs. Deer
Flat reservoir contains 116,764 acre
feet, Indian creek is also CARRYING
considerable water and conditions in
the territory it serves have improved
amazingly
The reclamation service officials
are hopeful that additional rams la
ter in the season will add to the sup
ply II Arrow Rock storage is drawn
upon heavily there is a possibility of
shortage even though the present sup
ply is ample. Economy and COOP
GRAFTON are still necessary to insure
sufficiency.
The precipitation since the first of
the month is equal to about four feet
of snow. 1t has damaged the early
strawberries somewhat and will re-
tard the ripening of the second crop,
but the damage thus far reported is
not serious and is compensated for in
other ways.
The sheep shearing plants have
been shut down for days on account
of the rain, but the woolgrowers are
not in a hurry now that they are as
sured of an abundance of range feed.
They can take their time getting their
flocks into the mountains.

RAISING BABY PHfASANTS
W. r. Priebe Has Success With Game
Birds.

w. r. Priebe has an interesting
sight at his home on Seventh ave-
nue. east, in large brood of baby
Chinese pheasants, which he has
Matched from eggs with the aid of
several biddies. Some time ago, Mr.
Priebe secured several hen pheasants
and started to raise the rare game
birds for the market. This spring all
of the hens have been laying and as
result over fifty eggs have been Civ
en- over to the Matching powers of
tame hens. The first of this week the
first setting began to break through
the shells and twelve tiny little baby
pheasants are now scratching for
worms, while several other broods
are expected to join the crowd within
a short time. The little pheasants, do
not resemble the full grown birds in
the slightest and would pass for ordi-
nary chicks save for pronounced and
uniform stripings on the back.

Have Taken MOsCiSka Thirty Seven
Miles From lemberg
FIGHTING LASTED ENTIRE WEEK
Teutons Have Made Gains on Long
Et
Line and Repulsed all
Attacks.

London, June 16.-The Austro-Ger-
man rush in Galicia is on again. Both
Berlin and Vienna lay claim officially
to progress along practically the en-
tire southeastern front, and Lemberg
seems again to be in danger.
Mosciska, to the east of Przemysl
thirty-seyen miles from Lemberg, on
the River Wysznia and on the rail
road running between Przemysl and
Lemberg has been captuerd by the
Austro-Germans after d desperate
struggle lasting since June s, and, ac-
cording to the German contention,
the Russians are falling back south
of the railroad. All the Russian coun-
ter-attacks have been repulsed, with
gains for the Teutons from point
north of Przemysl into Bessarabia.
Far off as this front is from Eng
land and France, it is being watched
more closely than the western front,
because it would appear that these
operations are being pressed in an at
tempt to clear Galicia of the Rus
slams, preparatory to a breathing
spell in the east, which is likely to
be followed by crushing blow aim
cd at Italy.

President Still Hopes to Arrange

OBREGOA DID NOT DIE
carranza's General Reported to
Be Recovering from His
Wounds.

Washington, June 16.-The Mex
days Cabinet meeting. The replies
from Carranza and Villa came up, but
no decision of moment was reached.
II is understood the President gave
expression to hope that Carranza
would enter into peace parleys with
Villa, but he had no information to
offer that Carranza would meet his
enemies.
The Administration is said still to
look with disfayor on Carranza and
disapproves the action of his agents
here in entering upon campaign of
advertising designed to win recogni-
tion for Carranza.
A statement given out by the Car
rama agency indicates that the Con-
stitutionalists have no intention Of
compromising with the Villistas.
The agency published despatch
from Vera Cruz, stating that three
delegates from the so-called convent
ion delivered note yesterday to
Gen. Gonzales in behalf of the conyen
ton, asking him to suggest plan for
uniiication of conyentionists and
Constitutionalists.r Gonzales replied
that the only plan practicable was
for the conyentionists to acknow-
ledge the sovereignty of the Constitu-
tionalist Government headed by Car
rama.
Gen. Obregon did not die of his
wounds at Leon as stated in recent
dispatches. a telegram received at
the Carranza agency today states
that Obregon is in Lagos, that he is
recovering rapidly and expects to be
ON his feet in a few DAYS.

OO0,OO0) making with previous sums
a total of eS62OOO,OO0 ($4,310,000,-

poses,
In Introducing the measure Prem
ier Asquith remarked that from
April to June II the expenditure
had been at the rate of c2,660,0OO
($13,3000OO) daily. He estimated
that the total daily expenditure dur
ing the currency of the new credit
would be not less than E3,0OO,0OO
,($15 100000, for the reason that. as
The war extended its area, Great Brit
aims financial obligations to the Al
lies would increase.
In a general survey OF the situa-
tion the Premier referred to the re-
construction of the Government. He
declared he would not have been jus
: tilted in taking the course he did in
this regard under the pressure of out
side influence or because of tempor-
airy embarrassment. The task was
as unwelcome as could fall to the lot
OF any man.
After paying tribute to his late
colleagues Mr., Asquith claimed both
for himself and his new colleagues the
staunchest adherence of their re-
spective political parties. He ad-
mitted the word coalition had not
pleasant favor in the vocabulary OF
British politics; previous departures
from The British system Of PARTY gov
crnment lad been found wanting in
dignity and success. Up TO the last
moment he had not been without
doubt as to how he could best re-
spond to the call of public duty.
"The situation was without parallel
in our history, the Premier said
4rhe demand which ii would make
upon the energies of the nation and
upon the patience and foresight OF
the Government and the confidence
