Water; snow at Rock Creek According to W. C. Bertsch, chief operator of the Rock creek power plant there is now 278 inches of water in the stream flow taken at the headgate of tho Eastern Oregon Light and Power company on Rock creek. At this time last year Mr. Bertsch savs there was . nnlv inn I inches. There Is now about one third more. Feb. 28 and 29 of this year u rain fell at the plant which started a stream flow of 300 Inches, continu ing for the first week of March. , The weather period has been much colder and tho creek has dropped to the above number of inches at this date. I For the six months period ending reo. 29, 1931-32, lncludlna tho. months of September, October, No vember, December, January and February records show that there has been 13 inches of precipita tion, an excess of 754 Inches over the same period of 1930 and 1931. This Is taken from the regular weather report which is sent from the plant to the Portland weather bureau. There Is now 36 Inches of snow at the plant on Rock creek, which compares with 12 Inches at this time a year ago. Mr. Bertsch says that with no frost in the ground the run-off Is being taken up. Farmers were able to' begin their spring work last year by the 18th of March. This year they will be do ing well if. they get started.. by April a,. Path wheels and bobsleds are , used for means of travel at this time In tho Rock Creek-Muddy Creek com munity. Severe Weather In Wallowa. Extremely severe weather during past several nights In the Wallowa vicinity has greatly delayed the melt ing of the snow, which still covers the ground to a considerable depth ln all parts of that community, writes G. C, Meek, correspondent. Rapid thawing, Which took place some 10 days ago, caused some of the south slopes along the 2ow foot hills to become practically bare of snow. However, with some snow squalls coming since that time, much of this Is again covered several Inches deep with new snow. With the freezing continuing new grass is said to be making a rather slow growth and but little chance yet of getting any of the stock off the feed yards. Cattle Taken Out Clay Boyd of lower valley started for Mud creek the latter part of the week with some of his cattle which he expects to put on grass there. Wert McQlnnls also took some of his stock out at the same time, intend ing to put a part of them on the breaks and take some of his milk cows to the ranch on Powwatka, where they will be fed hay for a time yet. Reports from tho Promise and Powwatka sections state that many of the nearby breaks are becoming bare at this time, making it possible to get much of the stock on grass. The most of the stockmen of this community feel that It is much too early In the season to take chances on taking the stock any great dis tance to range, where they cannot be looked after closely, because of the danger of ticks becoming bad as soon as the weather becomes a little milder. An Hauling Hay i A number of fanners of the com munity have been busy recently haul ing hay td their farms which has shipped in during the past few days from outside points. A large part of th-s hay received recently has been chopped. In a number of Instances this Is being fed in connection with grain and Is said to be providing ex cellent feed for cattle and sheep. Some lcs;s of cattle and sheep are reported by sorM of the farmers at this time. The past winter ap pears to have been an exceptionally severe one -on old sheep. Many of them have remained In fairly good condition until the post two or three weeks. Since that time they have lost flesh rapidly, resulting ln rath er heavy losses from some flocks. Road conditions are beginning to get quit:; bad and at a 'number of places in the community at this time sleighing is becoming thin and dirt roads becoming quite deep In mud. This makes travel with any kind of rigs quite difficult.
