Tlavor-Crîsp* CHICKEN Snow Survey Shows Ample Water Supply (Continued From Page 1) Beulah indicate expected flows of 90,000 acre feet (110 percent average) on the former and 75,000 acre feet (115 percent average) on the latter. State Snowpack Variable Statewide, Oregon water users will have average to excellent water supplies in 1965, April through September, despite near ly two months of severe drought preceded by two record-breaking early - winter floods. Mountain snowpacks are highly variable in water content, but they all lie on watershed soils that are very nearly saturated. Stored water supplies are up to a high of 83 percent of capacity. The next evaluation of water supply conditions will be made about May 7, from snow surveys and other data. All forecasts are made on the assumption that normal condi tions of temperature and precipi tation prevail during the runoff period. WEEKEND SPECIAL!
