''Wc are naturally receiving

While the announcements con
ccrning it. already made, have
emphasized the fact that it will be

no way conflicting with our present
standard product, there are doubt

who have been led to believe that
the difference in price between oul

some of your prospects may be dis
posed to defer their purchase OF

"In order to dispel any uncer

that the supplementary car will be

Heavy Snow in West

Denver. Col, May g P-The northern Rocky Mountain states to- day lay under one of the heaviest snow blankets on record for May following sharp drops in tempera- ture yesterday that transformed rain into binding blizzards at some points.
 The storm extended to the inter- mountain area, leaving two inches of snow at Salt Lake City. It was the sixth time snow had fallen there in May since the establishment of the weather bureau in 1874. The snow changed to sleet yesterday ming. The precipitation totaled 2.S inches. Aside from damage to or chards, property loss was light.
 Air mail, train and automobile traffic was delayed in Wyoming by a snow fall of from three to ten inches. High winds formed drifts that marooned motorists and threatened livestock. Sheepmen in the little Laramie valley, where lambing is in progress, feared heavy losses. A cloud burst at Fort Lara mic. Wyoming, drove virtually all of the 200 residents from their homes to a school house, when an irriga tion ditch overflowed.
 Snow also was general in Mon- tana where an unreasonable storm has ragged for nearly q week.
 Northeastern Colorado was GOV cred with a light blanket of snow driven by stiff wind. At Denver the snow melted as it fell and at Pueblo only rain was reported. Air mail planes from here and from Pueblo were forced 10 return 10 their fields. On the Palmer Lake divide between Denver and Colorado Springs many motorists were ma rooned in drifts.
 From the northern line of New Mexico to Fl Paso high winds were reported.
