Snow Gradually
Embracing Areas
|0f Northwest

Snowfall in the Glacier Nation
al Park area is gradually extend
ing in various directions, W i h
prospect of it's embracing all Of
northwest Montana.
Motor vehicles from the park
this week had indications of pass
ing through snowstorms.
Up to the present t h e has
been only a slight trace of snow
in Browning, that b ell G two
weeks ago. This week there has
b n considerable windstorms
laden with dust.
Since there has been practic-
ally no moisture on the Reserva-
ton during the f a | |, grassland
continues to harbor fire hazard.
The blessing of snow would n o t
be displeasing at this time, since
it would cloak areas dense w t h
vegetation and prevent its being
laid waste by flames.
Two years ago at this t i m e,
this section already had endured
a month of winter rigors, which
continued until late the following
spring.

Street BIading
Is Under WAY

Heavy equipment is now in
use by the Town of Browning in
blading streets in d ire need of
improvement. Earlier in the week
the east and west street extend
ing from the high school property
in Moccasin flats was improved.
Among o t h e improvements
completed recently in connection
with the drainage project W a S
that of cleaning out the ditch ex-
tending eastward in front of the
Tribal Council office.
At least half dozen truckloads
of debris and other accumulations
were removed in other to get it
down to a proper depth for flood
water drainage. People in h e
west end for the last several
years had been making it a prac-
tice of using the ditch as a gar.
bage dump, with the result that
its flood water capacity had be-
come greatly reduced. Last
spring t h e Agency installed
larger culvert beneath the road
way connecting with Browning's
Main Street. The original culvert
had to be removed last spring ir
order to permit a larger flow Of
flood water.
The work as we'll as that which
is under way at the present time
is in charge of Ernest Gray.
