quantity of snow available for the water supply3 The water supply may be approximately estimated by measur- ing the snow deposits, and by making melting tests of the snow to find out the quantity of water it contains. When the snow accumulations at the source of a dream are measured and tested for water, and then compared with measurements and tests of pre- ceding years, the quantity of water which summer will release from these accumulation may be approximately estimated.
 For several years Prof. Carpenter
 State Engineer, has been trying to find out the chief factors which conserve the water supply. About three years ago he sent me to the watershed of the Platte with instructions to measure, test, photograph and to note the loca- tion of the snow deposits. The writer has made similar investigation of the snow deposits at scores of other places in the State. During 19O3-04 in- .vestigations were carried on during autumn, winter and spring. I rambled the snowy range" from Wyoming to New Mexico. During these rambles I observed the wind and weather,

ResoIutions.

At special meeting of the directors of the New Haven County National Bank, held at it's banking house Fri day. May 5, 1905, the following minute was read and adopted: .t....-sssS5~
 We have heard with true regret of the death of Henry D. White, in point of service the senior director of this bank, and desire to express our deep sense of personal loss by reason of the sad. event and our sympathy with his afflicted relatives. ss
 For forty years MT. White had served as faithful director of this bank and by his wise counsel, conservative judg- ment and deep interest he has contribut- ed largely to it's welfare and to whatever degree of confidence it has attained in this community. We realize that it will be difficult indeed to fill the vacancy in our board caused by his death. He was a loyal, public spirited citizen, a faithful friend and honest man, one who will be our civic life, and especially will he be missed by the surviving members of this board, to each of whom he was a valued friend.
 . His daughter and other relatives have our deep and respectful sympathy in this sad and sudden affliction which has removed one so near and dear to them and on whose support they so strongly relied. ...sa '..
 Voted, That we will attend his fun eral in q body and that a copy of this minute be sent to his family, and also entered in full on the records of this bank. +4

watched snow fall, drift and disappear,
 looked at the soil conditions, saw the living forests and the burned areas, and made pages of notes concerning
 natural phenomena. On these trips I wear medium weight woollen underwear, overralls and a
 canvas coat. While on snowshoes I
 have my feet in German socks and
 arctic overshoes. carry camera, a barometer, thermometer, compass and a foldinug axe. The only food carry is either raisins or peanuts. eat light
 1y while on the go and can if necessary l live for a week upon a pound of raisins.
 I have many times travelled for three days in succession without eating a bite. The result of measurements thus far , made suggests that the area of deepest. snow fall is not far from il 900 feet
 above sea level. In other words, ascend
 or descend from timber line and the quantity of snow grows less.
 March seems to be the month of
 greatest snowfall, and the snows of
 this month generally are very wet.

 summit peaks are above the storm
 clouds and do not receive any snow.
 Crested Butte and surroundings seem to have the most snow. In this region
 an annual fall of thirty feet is not un-
 common, and fifty feet has fallen in single winter. The normal snowfall at
 Swandyke is eighteen feet, and during the snowy winter of 1900 snow fell on IF consecutive days.
 There is common belief concerning the water supply which I believe erro- neous, and it is that "early snows make late water" Very few of those who have had much experience with moun- tain snows will agree with this. The longer snow lies upon the ground, the greater will be the loss of its moisture by evaporation. Colorado winds are ever thirsty, and no matter how firmly a snowdrlft may be packed its firm con- dftion will not prevent the winds from sucking much of the moisture out of it. have assayed hundreds of snowdrifts melted a portion to find the percent age of water--and fnvariaibly I have found the greater percentage of water in drifts which were best protected from wind or which were not old. In time evaporation will change com pacted snowdrift to a crystal cavern.

Duties os a Colorado Man Who Holds
 This Unique Position.
 So far as I know, Colorado has the only ''snow observer" in the world, writes E,nos A. Mills in the Denver Republican. The duties of the snow observer are mostly confined to meas uring snow accumulations at the head waters of the streams. Most of these measurements are made in springtime, after the snowfall on the range is practically over.
 At the source of mountain streams snow commonly falls through nine months of the year. By the beginning of June the snow of the preceding months are for the most part found in irregularly shaped deposits of various sizes and depths. These deposits are found either where the snow accu- 1nulated most deeply or where the snow was best protected from the melting sun or the evaporating winds.
 Irrigation into tests are affect ed by the quantity of snow. It has be- come important to know in advance the
