THE Too.cLEvER WOMAN.

Man unjustly accuses woman Of en-.
joying monopoly of vanity, when, as
q MISTER of fact, no woman is any
more vain than most men, and in some
respects mere man Is so much more
vain than woman that comparison is
ridiculous. A good many men spend
as much time as any belle over their
attire and the manner of its assump-
tion on state occasions, but the real
vanity Of man concerns his brains. He
likes clever woman, but the very In
slant he suspects she is cleverer than
he, he takes fright. His vanity is
hurt. Inasmuch as awe and love are
not given to rambling leafy lanes hand
in hand, and man In his superiority
likes to believe woman dependent upon
him mentally as we'll as for creature
needs, the woman who Is really clever
will never allow her cleverness to OBJ
trude itself too strongly upon men.
Wit is good servant, but bad mas
ter The girl who acquires reputa-
ton for putting on airs, or being
smart" is never popular among men.
The too-clever woman is handicapped
oy her cleverness. 1t sometimes pays
10 pamper foolish, egotistic man, and
ase wit with discretion.

There can be no long felt or deepl!r
serious depression from financial panic
in a country whose agricultural pro-
duction is increasing at the rate Of
$500, 100000 year. Nearly $4,000, O00,-
600 of new wealth was brought up out
of the ground in the year just coming
to a close, or $50 per capita on basis
of 10O,OOO,0OO population-an increase
of more than a third of a billion over
the the soil production of 1907. These
are farm values based on prices paid
the producer, and the increase has
come despite the fact that cotton and
hay the second and third crops in i'm.
portance, measured by aggregate
value, have experienced a heavy slump
in price as compared with the prices
prevalent year ago.

This country that laid the rails for
the great railroads Of Russia, that has
bestowed upon the cars realm many
of the implements Of its industrial
promotion is being looked to by the
douma for other assistance Of the
same nature A bill has passed the
parliament providing for the establish
ment at Washington of Russian ag-
ricultural agency for the purpose of in
PRODUCING American methods and ma
chinery. This is but another evidence
that America leads the world, and the
nations are sitting at her feet seeking
instruction in the modern art of get
ging to the goal without going in cir

The sad plight of an old couple
driven from the home they had given
to their daughter is pitiful testimony
to the heartlessness of children who
are humored, petted and pampered
into selfishness by indulgent parents.
The daughter who turns her aged par
ents into the street is like the hus-
band who borrows his wife's girlhood
savings and spends them on other
women. In each case the fault is in
fathers and mothers who permit their
children to grow up selfish. Parents
and wives who are tempted to sacri-
fee the little substance which guar
antees their independence should be-
ware. Love is blind, and there is dan.
ger in intrusting common sense to a
blind guide.

TO GAUGE SNOWFALL
Weather Bureau Is Establishing
Stations in Rockies.
Will Give Farmers Flood Warnings
and Estimate Water Supply for
Observation-Disclosures viii
Be Valuable.

Denver.-That Uncle Sam is not
disposed to overlook any point when
1t comes to aiding the developers Of
the country is evidenced in the estab-
lishment of snow gauging stations at
many points in the Rocky mountains,
under the direction Of officials Of the
United States weather bureau. The
amount of snow that falls in the
Rocky mountains determines the
amount of water in many of the prin-
cipal rivers of the country, and hence
has bearing on the floods that dew
astate the middle west in some spring
seasons. The snowfall in the noun
tains has much to do with determining
the success or failure of the vast ir-
rigation enterprises that have sprung
up in the west. The mountains act as
vast reservoirs. When the snowbanks
are piled high in these natural reser-
voirs the farmer who depends on IT.
rigation knows that there is no danger
of shortage Of water in the coming
summer. But If the main range shows
few snow capped peaks and the gull
lies contain few white drifts then the
farmer realizes that he must husband
every drop of water
1t is for keeping accurate and de-
pendable records of snowfall that the
government is establishing these snow
gauging stations throughout the Rocky
mountains. Statistics will be kept and
comparisons will be made each year,
SO the people in the Mississippi val

ley will know whether the flood dan
ger is at maximum or minimum and
the western rancher will not have to
guess at the amount of water that will
be available for irrigation purposes.
Then, too, in the Rocky mountains are
springing up water power enterprises
that dwarf Niagara by comparison.
Through the government estimates of
the snowfall the promoters of these
enterprises will be able to figure ap-
proximately the amount of water pow.
er that will be available.
F. H. Brandenburg, one of the vet
Grams of the weather bureau service,
who is in charge of the station at Den
yer, has established most of the snow
gauging stations in the mountains. He
has spent the greater part of the win
ter at the task. More than 30 stations
have been erected by Mr.. Brandenburg
In Colorado alone.
This has been an exceptionally
good season for beginning the work
of measuring the snowfall" said Mr..
Brandenburg, IF the amount of snow
has any bearing on the subject. The
snowfall in the Rocky mountains has
been the heaviest in many years. In
some places in the mountains the
drifts are 40 or so feet dep and five
feet on level is a common occur
renee. Some of the snow gauging sta
tons have been established at tre-
mendous attitudes, as at Boreas Pass.
La Veta Pass, etc, but most of them
are well below the timber line"
One Of the new snow measuring sta
lions has been established at Steam.
boat Springs, in Routt county, where
accurate estimates of the snowfall on
the western side of the Great Divide
will be made. A few weeks ago the
telephone line out of Steamboat
Springs would not work. Linemen
were sent out on snowshoes and with
provisions drawn on sledges. The
linemen returned, stating that they
found the tops Of the telephone poles
40 feet below the surface Of the snow
in many places. A temporary line was
fixed by stringing wire from the tops
of the tallest trees. ,Jackson's Hole.
south Of Yellowstone Ma.
tional park, has had an unprecedented
fall of snow this winter. So deep have
been the drifts In the mountains that
the elk, of which there are thousands
in this big game paradise, were driy-
en- to the valleys below. Finally the
state had to appropriate $4,000 to
feed these elk.
When the government has estab-
lished snow measuring stations along
the entire crest of the continent. from
the Canada line to the Rio Grande.
the results should prove most interest
Ing as well as valuable. The nation
will be able to determine just how
great resource 1t has in its snow
fall each year, or how great a men.
ace is threatening the farmers In low.
err attitudes, where floods are common.
The food menace will be checked
gradually as reservoirs are construct
I'd to catch the run-off from the Rocky
SHOWS each season, but then
he snow gauging statistics will be val
liable, showing, as they will, how
much will be added to the reservoirs
through the winters snowfall.
