of the crossroads have not been broken
out and travel is difficult on some of the
main highways. gu ...- e...a
In some sections the trees are laden
with snow and ice almost to the breaking
point, in fact many limbs and branches
already have broken down. Rain which
froze to the trees gave foundation of
ice to which the snow cllngs, pending the
limbs low under it's weight, in some places
forming beautiful arches across the high
way. At various points it has been neces-
sary to shake off the snow in order to make
passage over the highways possible.

30 years had he seen so much snow on the
trees, it being seven to eight inches deep
