Skating on Wallowa lake
was perfect last week. The
whole lake was frozen over
with ice about two inches
thick and clear as crys-
tal. Large crowds of skaters
were on the ice, continuing
their sport in the moonlight
far into the night.
Sulfur spread on alfalfa
land has been proved to
increase the yield very
largely, in tests made in
other parts of Oregon. It will
be tried out this season on
Wallowa county fi elds on a
large enough scale to give an
idea of whether it will be as
valuable here as elsewhere.
Bounties on 752 coyotes
and 59 bobcats and lynxes
were paid by the county in
1918. The aggregate amount
paid was $2,598.
A roaring Chinook yes-
terday morning wrecked
buildings and blew down
trees in a wide stretch of
country around Joseph and
Enterprise. The most seri-
ous damage was done to the
Joseph school building, the

demolished. The railroad

Logging and sawmill
operations were at a vir-

to a combination of market
conditions and the severe
cold and deep snow. With
temperatures ranging to 35
below zero in some sec-
tions and snow in the tim-
ber fi ve and six feet deep,
logging crews have found
it impossible to operate
with anything approaching
effi ciency.
The Enterprise fi re depart-
ment answered 14 fi re alarms
in 1948 and held fi re losses
down to $5,355 for the year.
Fire at the A.J. Oliver
ranch destroyed the barn

With the progress that is
apparent in the planning for

the gondola may be called
for by the end of January.
