PHOENIX, Dec. 18.—According to reports of stock and range conditions made to the Weather Bureau the north-central counties experienced the coldest weather of the season during the past week. Daytime temperature however, was sufficiently high to materially reduce the snow covering leaving a large part of the range bare.
Monday morning three inches of snow lay on the ground at Grand Canyon, two inches at Pinedale, and patches of snow in the vicinity of Williams.
Monday evening six inches were reported at Flagstaff, two inches less than the week previous. Very little feeding is being done except where the ground is completely covered with snow or where stock are being for market. Large numbers of cattle are being fed in the Salt River valley, silage forming a large part of their daily ration.
