Big Owens lake receives as much or .uore
water than the Humboldt S,uk. 1t is
not true, however, that tn. quantity of

lake ID now some four feet higher than
eleven or twelve years ago. Tue amount
OF snowfall in the mountains is the ouly
thing governing it. Iu Summer heat the
total amount OF evaporation from its vast

Some ascribe the fact Of the water slslue
to an increased amount of snow on ths

believe that the turning OF Virginia creek
into the lake has caused the change,
while some hold to the theory that some
