Vicious Weather
Change Closes
Open Winter

! Gold icy vi n d s yesterday
cllmaxed t h seeming friendly
chlnooks of t h e previous day,
once again revealing winter
banana weather" in Montana as
a treacherous "jack-in-the-box."
The previous days thaw con-
tlnued from the afternoon
through the night, cold flakey
wind rendering the ground a
rou g h and slippery surface,
dangerous to pedestrians and
motorists, alike.
The outlook is far from bright.
1t will now take more chinooking
than is in the cards to undo what
has been done. The open winter
for stock as the result of the COM
5ination of warmth and cold can
not h e p but be at an end. In
other words, a chapter or two of
the vicious winter of 1946-47.
Throughout yesterday after
noon and continuing up until the
Chief went to prsss late last
night heavy snowfall was occur
ing. Accompanied by a brisk
wind, roads were becoming i'm
passable.
In the light of weather develop
ments, it is most likely that out
of-state shipments of h a y from
the Reservation will come to an
abrupt stop this week. Inconveni-
ences and various difficulties in
hay-baling and transportation to
the Great Northern freight depot
have began to prevail.
Around Is carloads of b aled
hay have been shipped out by rail
to date, G. N. agent McKane said
yesterday. This represents 375
tons.

jury, a profuse hemorrhage re-
sulting for time after the crash.
Since then she has been under
treatment of DR.. Stuart Whet-
stone of Cut Bank.
The Buick was severely dam
aged as to render it unfit for mail
service indefinitely.
Appearing before Judge Lukin
last Saturday, Chadburn asked
postponement of the trial, pend
ing securing of an attorney.

Open Water Taps
Suggested By
Mayor Norman

! That domestic water convent
ences of consumers of the Town
of Browning may not continue to
be impaired because of freezing
temperatures, NJ yor Norman
mas suggested that aps be left
partly open during h e severe
cold, the flow being an i d to-
wards preventing freezing.
In connection with his sugges-
ton he said that water m 7
readings for this month would be
based upon the quantity charged
for in December. In this, way he
said, the excess water that would
be registered against consumers
through the running water freez-
ing preventive would not cause
their water bill to be above nor
NAL
In addition to freeze-ups, con-
sumers would otherside be put to
t h expense of having electrical
equipment thaw out their pipes.
