USEFUL SNOW.
But For 1t Much Of the Earth Would
BE Little Better Than "A Desert.


If ae .he condensed moisture of the
atmosphere were 10 fail as rain and
none Of it 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 ana well watered lowlands.
1t is III the extensive regions where ir-
rication is 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 ravnes. Thus in ma
lures great icehousc a supply Of mois-
ture is stored up for the following sum
mer.
All through the warm months the
hardened snowbanks are melting grad
ually In trickling streams they stead
lily feed the rivers, which as they flow
through the valleys are utilized for ir-
rgation If this moisture fell as rain,
it 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 in 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 pictur-
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 to attach less Importance to its
service in soil nutrition-for some re-
gions which have no snow are exceed
ingly fertile-than to it's worth as a
blanket during the months of high
winds. 1t prevents the blowing off Of
the finely pulverized richness Of the
top soil. This, although little perceiv-
ed, would often be very great less.
In natures every form there is mean

A Humorous Turk.

A typical Turkish humOrist was Kho-
ia Nasreddin Effendi, who lived in the
fourteenth century. OF him this story
is told:
zone Friday the khoja's fellow vii
layers insisted on his preaching a ser
mon in the mosque, which he had new
er done. not having any oratorical
gifts. He mounted the pulpit sorely
against his will and. looking around at
the congregation. asked in despair, oh

going to say to your They naturally
replied. No. Well, | am sure | don't.
he said and hurriedly left the mosque
The congregation We're, however, deter
mined to have their sermon and next
Friday forced him again into the pull.
pit. When he again put the same ques-
ton, they replied by agreement. Yes
oh, then he said. if you know
needn't tell you and again escaped.
On the third Friday the villagers made
what they thought must be a successful
plan. They got the khOja into the pull
pit and when he asked what had now
become his usual question replied,
Some of us know and some Of us
don't Then replied the khoja, let

An Interesting Letter From Mr.
Charles 7. Inman.

City Poor Director Joseph Kendall
is in receipt of Il letter from Mr.
Charles T. Inman, who is en- route 10
the Pacific coast. Mr. Inman is ac-
companied by his wife.
A portion of the letter, written at
San Antonio, Tex, follows:
We have had a delightful trip so far
and the weather has been perfect
1t has not been uncomfortably warm
at any time. We spent all day Thurs
day in Cincinnati, and left there in the
evening for New Orleans, reaching
there at 1880 Friday evening. Thought
of you many times as the old river
would come in sight. Spent Saturday
looking at the sights. Visited the old
French market, the levee, the old
cemeteries, etc. Sunday at 1915
crossed the river to Algiers and took
train forbS Antonio, passing the
Bayoas and cutting across them,
through the rice plantations and the
cane fields and then on to the great
cotton belt of Texas. Just think OF
the size Of this great State. 1t takes
us two days and two nights to cross
1t, going at II 40 mile an hour gait.
Distance, 1,124 miles across to El Paso.
Reached San Antonio yesterday morn,
ing, and spent n fine day seeing the
sights. The Lord had plenty Of dirt
when he made this State of Texas,
but did not fail to beautify even this
boundless eXpanse of the earth's sur
face for as far as eye can reach, you
see the delicate tints of the rainbow
pearl and dew drops in the profuslon
of wild flowers and roses that carpet
the fields and prairies. We leave in a
few moments for El Paso, our next
stop. From there we make n short
side trip into old Mexico. Lille Is
enjoying the trip every moment, and is
feeling much better.

City Dependents
Thrown Out of Employment.
This Saved Wage Expenses,
But the City Has to Keep Them.

the increased police force. The depen-
dants who lost their jobs Immediately
and with great sagacity have thrown
themselves upon the City Poor depart
ment, Thus it becomes true that while
the city saved the money they got as
wages, the taxpayers are obliged to
contribute money to keep them in idle
ness, which condition up to date has
caused none Of the dependents to bolt
the ticket or commit suicide
lnasmuch, however as the poor fund
is provided by the whole county it,
seemed pleasing to the Board to per-
nit it to bear a large burden, but
city taxpayers incidentally pay the
fiddler the larger part of his salary.
At present the Poor department has
to its credit more than $4,000, so
what's the use Of kicking?
