VALLEY VISITED
BY FIRST SNOW
: STORM OF YEAR
..Medford and tho vnlloy had its first
taste, of wintry weather today and
enjoyed tho unusual wpeetacle for this
ylclnlty, or snow on the ground.
; The snow began fulling- about 9:30
l&Ht night and continued to fall off
and on all night until by Ji o'clock thlH
rnornlng 1 l inrhes--had fallen. It
continued to snow intermittently dur
ing the day. However, the snow was
for the most part of the soft, large
flake variety, much of which melted
away fast. There wan about three
quarters of an Inch on the ground
ourly this forenoon, and the melting
snow on the puvcmentu and side
wulks formed a bIubIi which required
careful going oil the part of automo
ullen, and formed sloppy walking.
; There was a heavy fall of snow In
tjie mountains last night and part of
today. Tourists who camo over the
ftlsklyous last night reported thlH
morning that in their estimation there
was from 10 inches to. a foot of snow
at the, summit when they crossed
'Over. TTowever, tourists who crossed
the Sfsklyous this morning reported
hore about noon that the hiiow depth j
Ot the summit when they croHHod was
not .more than six Inched. South bound
tourlttts arriving In tho city last night
say they ran into snow storms near
Canyonvllle and other p luces enroute,
but 'that there was only a sprinkling
of snow on the highway.
The sun appeared at about 2 p. m.
today giving an apparent promise that
the snow storm was over. Fnlr weath
er is the prediction for Hunday.
