Vancouver, Wash., Jan. 18. Abou $
Inches of snow fell in Vancouver last
night and is the heaviest snowfall re
corded here in years. Wires are down

the surrounding country; - Those fortu
nate enough, to have sleighs are in their
glory today s and many unique devices
for transportation on runners are In ev
idence on the streets. . - -v -
Floating Ice In beginning to make its
appearance in the Columbia river and
it la thought by tonight river traffic
will be impeded. Acres of floating ice
is said to be coming down tho river
from above tho Cascade mountains. - .,
. Fear is felt that should tha snow go
off with a rush much damage will re

Rldgefleld. Wash., Jan." I8.-Aa! large
stHp of dirt road near La Center Wash.";
which is being kept in shape with a
split log drag is in just as good condi
tion at this time of the year aa ever.
according to reports of those who dally
traverse trim piece or road, '
The road is being kept In shape by
the: various ranchers as an experiment
and, but little work is required to keep
it properly surfaced so that the drain
age is good and the water does, not
gather,; The residents of that '-community
"believe that with the use of a few
drags all ofthe dirt joads of the jgun
try oanTerTteptr.InsIiapo'durlng the

' vThe principal thing, they point out Is
to keep a crowa In. the road so that the
water will drain off. Jf this Is done
there in no danger of mud liolea bclnj
formed, while very llttlo mud itself will
gather to impede the teams.
