DRIEST MARCH
With precipitation of .65 inch re
ported by Len L Gilliam, govern
ment observer, for March, a new
record dry for many years was re
corded. The month went moisture
less until the very end when a few
showers ushered in other showers
for the start of April. Both Febru
ary and March were short in pre
cipitation, Mr. Gilliam reported, and
reports from the timbered area show
a very low snow supply that bodes
ill for irrigating water later in the
season. Crops generally, to date, are
not suffering as a good supply of
reserve moisture is in the ground,
and the new wheat is presenting the
best appearance in several years,
stands being generally heavy and
free from weeds.
