It may make slower traveling, but the snow which has fallen since Sun day amounts to a donation of many thousands of dollars to the dry farm ers In Central Oregon, is the declara tion of ranchers in this vicinity. Lit tle benefit, It is held, was derived from earlier snows, as what mois ture was deposited In the ground was dried out by cold and wind. It is thought that the snowfall may tcean the difference between a failure and a bumper crop. Through the Interior, especially in the Big River and Crescent neigh borhoods, the fresh snow has reached a depth of nearly 12 inches, and until today a virtual blizzard has been raging. In spite of this, however, no harm to cattle has been reported, and with an abundance of hay on hand, ranchers have experienced no trouble whatever from the fleecy precipita tion. To the north ot Bend, he snow becomes ever lighter and lighter. practically none falling on the north ern half of the lines, until lust i.-ghi. and officials entertain no fear ot a blockade.

""father Sheeban has not been ad vised fully aa to the nature ot the new hospital, but In former confer ences with the sisters it has been In timated that the structure's cost would approximate $50,000, would be built either of stone or brick and would accommodate about. 25 pa tients. The hospital, as planned by the sisters, will be thoroughly equip ped with the latest conveniences for surgical work. Five sisters will prob ably locate permanently in Bend, to direct the construction of tho build ing, its equipment and operation. ' Ever since Mother Rose visited In Bend several months ago, she has been greatly interested in the devel opment of the sister's hospital, and has followed closely local develop ment to ascertain to a certainty just what outlay is necessary to meet not only present conditions, but future necessities of the town. Father Shee han has been carrying on active work for several months in co-operation with local Catholics In bringing the institution before the people and has expressed his gratification at the way In which not only members of his own congregation have supported the enterprise, but also the assistance that has been given by non-Catholic ettizena of )h Inn-n The building, which will be under 1 way next month, represents only ono unit of the hospital structure, as it will eventually be.
