USEFUL SNOW.
But For IL Much of the Earth Would
he Little BETTER Than Desert.

But For IL Much of the Earth wOuId
he Little BETTER Than n Desert.
II all the condensed moisture Of the
atmosphere were TO fall as rain and
none Of II as snow, hundreds Of thou
sands OF square miles OF the earth's
surface now yielding bountiful crops
would be little better than a desert
The tremendous economic gain for the
world at large which results from the
difference between snow and rain Is
seldom realized by the inhabitants OF
fertile and well watered lowlands.
II is in the extensive regions where ir-
rlgation is a prime necessity in agricul-
ture that the special uses Of the snow
come chiefly into view. All through
the winter the snow is falling upon the
high mountains and packing itself
firmly into the rayines. Thus in ma
ture's great icehouse a supply Of mols-
ture is stored up for the following sum
mer
All through the warm months the
hardened snowbanks are melting grad
ually. In trickling streaIas they stead
lily feed the rivers, which as they flow
through the valleys are utilized for ir-
rigation. III this moisture fell as rain,
II would almost Immediately wash
down through the rivers, which would
hardly be fed at all in the summer,
when the crops most needed water.
These facts are so well known as to
be commonplace I'm the Salt Lake val
ley and in the subarid regions OF the
west generally. They are not so well
understood In New Jersey or Ohio,
where snow is sometimes a plctur-
esque, sometimes a disagreeable, fea
ture OF winter,
In all parts Of the country the notion
prevails that the snow is of great value
as a fertilizer. Scientists, however, are
inclined 10 attach less importance TO It's
service in soil nutritiOn-fOr some re-
gions which have no snow are exceed
ingly fertile-than TO Its worth as q
blanket during the months OF high
winds. 1t prevents the blowing of OF
the finely pulverized richness OF the
top soil. This, although little perceiy
ed. would often be a very great loss.

SUIT TO REMOVE
AN OBSTRUCTION
Chinese Society Owning Prop
erty on Beretania St, Seeks
Relief in Court.

The Ket On Fui Kon Society has
brought suit against Gnau Chong in
the Circuit Court praying for an in
juction enjoining defendant from erect
ing any structure or building on prop
erty claimed by plaintiff on Beretania
street. The plaintiff states it is cor
poration, and the successor of a certain
voluntary association known as the
Tong Hing Kun So Society. The asso-
citation was seized in fee simple of GER
tain pieces of land at Kamakela, Ho-
nolulu, containing an area of 5.445
square feet, having frontage on Ber-
etania street of about sixry-eignt feet.
having acquired the same by deed
from the Tong Hing Kun So Society,
which purchased the same on or about
the 9th of July, 1894. and the plaintiff
has been in possession of the premises
since that date.
At the time of the purchase of said
land by the Tong Society, Beretania
street, Immediately in front of the
premises, was an open public thorough
fare established and maintained by the
Hawaiian government, and was and Is
an ancient right of way over which
the public had been accustomed to
pass and repass for more than twenty
years then last past, and has never
been closed according to law; but the
petitioner claims to be entitled to use
and enjoy the same as a public thor
oughfare. On June 1, 1896, certain I'M
lawful distractions were erected on
Beretania street in front of the prem
ises of the Tong Society, and the socie-
ty had brought legal proceedings in the
Circuit Court of the Republic Of Ha-
waii to have the same removed. which
were pending, when during January,
1900 these distractions, together with
all the buildings on the premises Of the
plaintiff were destroyed in the great
fire commonly known as the Chinatown
fire.
Gnau Chong has within the past
month started to erect other unlawful
structures upon Beretania street, i'm
mediately in front of the PLAINTIFF
premises, and intends to erect and
maintain a building there, already par
tally erected
