Snow in Mountains

Not in eight years at least has
there been as little snow in the
mountains at this time of the year
than there Is at the present time.
This is the word brought down by
Mr.. McCahan, an employee of the
Water Supply and Storage company.
located at Chambers lake. The snow
storm Of Wednesday deposited about
two and one-half feet along Grand
river. while there was two feet at
Chambers lake.
And this condition, together with
the order of the state engineers Of
fee prohibiting the storage Of water
in the reservoirs. is responsible for
the somewhat discouraging outlook
for the irrigation season next year.
There must be plentiful supply Of
snow and plenty of rain before next
spring II the farmers are to have
anywhere near sufficient water for
their needs.-Fort Collins Express.

ways let them look upon real spout
ing oil wells owned by some reput-
able company. Up to date the de-
partment has Investigated all Of the
Burr Brothers oil properties except
Buick Oil, and has found them all to
be worthless.
Besides spending some of their
clients money in private car trips,
Burr Brothers paid out considerable
sums to such newspapers as would

the raid was made the inspectors
found evidence that the concern had
recently contracted for 100000
worth of newspaper advertising"
In this stream of capital flowing
through the mails into the Golfers of
fraudulent promoters the New York
Evening Mail discovers lone factor
in the high cost of living to which
due attention has never been given.
1t says:
"It helps to explain the circum-
stance that capital. nowadays. fails
to accumulate as steadily and as
rapidly as 1t did some years back.
All business. particularly the rail-
roads, have felt the difficulty of Be-
curing the funds they required to
enlarge their plant and make vari-
Gus betterments. In a sense the
country seems to be living from
hand to mouth-that is, 1t is spend
ing about all that it makes, and has
little left for anything beyond the
routine needs. The operations of
the get-rich-quick concerns show one
of the ratholes-a big one-through
which surplus capital disappears
Other concerns using the mails
are under investigation, we are told,
and other raids and arrests are to
follow, the postmaster general hav-
ing announced that ''the government
will drive from the country every
wild cat scheme to separate gullible
investors from their money-so far
as it is possible to do so."
But how much depends upon that
qualifying clause, remark many pap
! ers; and the New York Evening
World exclaims: What a furry
would there be in Wall Street and
in the highest financial circles we're
such an effort to be fearlessly, intel
ligently and comprehensively made!"
The suppression of these fraudulent
operations. thinks the New York
Journal of Commerce. depends even
more upon the enlightment of the
public by their exposure than in the
punishment of those caught in con.
Quoting them.

OF STATE WILL
BE HERE IN JANUARY

Preparations are we'll under way
by the grocers and retail merchants
of the city to entertain the delegates
to the Colorado Retail Grocers asso.
citation on January 16. II and IS.
The annual convention is to be held
for the first time in Greeley. and the
meeting is one of the most import
ant from a commercial standpoint
ever held here.
From 100 to $50 delegates are ex-
pected. most of whom will bring
their wives. 1t is planned to have
the entertainment provided to In
clude the ladies so that it is probable
that the wives of the resident mer.
chants will be called upon to act on
entertainment committees.
The convention is the fifteenth to
be held by the organization. which
was formed to look after the inter-
ests of the retailer and consumer.
1t fs claimed that the retail grocers
have done more for the people at
large than any similar organization
in the state.
The program has not yet been
completed, but 1t will include . big
banquet the evening of January IS.
The headquarters will be at the Cam
field hotel and the sessions will be
held in Camfield hall.
The recently organized Greeley
Traffic club will hold a special meet
ing at $3.50 O'Clock on next Monday
morning to plan for the entertain
ment Of the delegates. The stores
will all be closed on Monday 80 that
a large attendance Is expected. In
addition to considering plans for the
convention, the proposed parcels
law will be discussed and probably
some action in the premises will be
taken. 1t is considered likely that
the merchants will oppose the law.
