SEEDING DELAY
IS NOT SERIOUS
Field Operations Will Be
Under way in Two Weeks
is Belief.

With weather condition favorable
to the disappearance Of the 10 inches
OF snow which fell Monday, optimistic
farmers are OF the belief that not
than a ten-day delay in seeding
operations will result.
The general impression among
business men who have talked to
county farmers seems to be that a
two-weeks delay will be the result Of
the heavy snowfall, but some believe
that it may be three week before
seeding operations begin in full swing.
According to of the farmers
today. the water will not remain on
the fields long after the snow has
melted. All of the bitches are now
open. he said, and drainage can be
easily effected. With the exception
of a few low spots. which always hold
water until after the regular seeding
is done. he believed that the land
would be in condition to work within
two weeks,

Street Repair Work /.
Temporarily Stopped

Repair work on the street approach
to the DeMers avenue bridge has been
temporarily stopped because of the
thaw. A fault in the earth caused by
traffic, rains and the ~freezings and
thaws Of several years had caused the
approach to sink several inches below
the normal level. and fears were en-
%tertained that a slide Of the river
bank underneath might follow. Wa
ter mains, beyond being bent by the
pressure. were not damaged. but a
leak was found in the gas main,
which has been remedied. Re ballast
ing will be completed as soon as the
snow clears away and the ground is
favorable for working. No incon-
venience to traffic is caused by the de-
lay.
