snow storms it has experienced in
years. Starting early in the morning
the storm increased in severity
throughout the day With a gale blow
ing forty miles an hour and the air
thick with snow, the singing particles
made it almost impossible to face the
storm. Telegraph and telephone serv-
ice alone withstood the storm. The
steam roads are tied up, interurban
traffic is at standstill on some lines
and on other lines almost completely.
Sixteen inches of snow fell, according
20 the government records, between 7
o'clock in the morning and Z O'Clock at
night. The only relieving feature of
the situation was the fact that the
temperature was mild, standing at 25
degrees most of the day.

ALGERIA'S WINE CROP YIELD
PRODUCT, Distinctly inferior to That Of
Previous Season, VIII Total Only
About 1853, 502, 800 Gallons.

The vine crop Of Algeria is distinctly
inferior to that of year ago. The Of
fetal statistics of the vintage will not
be issued for several weeks; but, ac'
cording to the general estimate the
yield approximates 6000000 hecoll-
ters (15S,502 800 gallons), compared
with 8,7S1,266 hecoliters (231. 975, 100
gallons) IN 1916.
The seasons unusual dryness, which
lasted from spring until the full ma

Gladly stronger. Ply lloxera and other
plant diseases did considerable dam
age to the vines, and the late siroccos
further tended to reduce the output.
The lack of labor was also handi-
cap, especially in the department Of
Oran, which was unable to draw upon
Morocco to any extent.
Prices range much higher and the
return to the wine producers promises
to be good. Transportation facilities
to France-which country takes a
large percentage of the crop--are far
from normal. and there is likely to be
a marked shortage in barrels and bot
ties.
