SNOWFALL
IS LIGHT
IN HILLS
NOVEMBER REPORT SHOWS DE-
FICIENCY ON ALL THE GREAT
WATER SHEDS IN THE STATE
LOWEST IN MANY YEARS

At the end of November, accord
ing to the monthly bulletin of the
Chronological service OF the weather
bureau, the amount of snow in the
mountains of Colorado was less
than usual at that period, in fact,
the least in many years. During
October the precipitation, prin-
cipally in the form of rain, was in
excess of the normal on the water
sheds of the western slope, all of
which have their drainage into the
Colorado river. A deficiency was
general on the Arkansas water shed
and on that of the Rio Grande, ex-
cept in upper part. For the South
Platte an excess was general. For
November, taking each water shed
as a whole, there was less than the
average, the deficiency being mark
ed on all the water sheds of the
southern half of the state.
At the close of November the
average depth on the South Platte
water shed was three inches, aver
age altitude was 5000 feet; North
Platte, five, $500 feet; Arkansas,
two, for $500 feet; Rio Grande.

PRAIRIE DOGS
ARE CAUSING
MUCH TROUBLE
Pests Seem to Grow Worse in Spite
Of all That Is Done to Ex-
terminate Them

Platteville, Dec. 1S.-Prairie dogs
have been giving the farmers of the
state considerable trouble in the
matter of doing damage to their
crops. and the state entomologist
and agricultural experts have been
urging the farmers to become more
active in the work of exterminating
the pests.
Treating their burrows with pois-
oned grain has been recommended
as the best method of exterminat-
ing these rodent pests. This can
best be done in the late fall or early
in the spring, although it may be
done successfully in the winter If
there are sunny days.
Dry farming districts have suf-
fered most from the prairie dogs, as
in those districts they cannot be
controlled by irrigation. They are
not particular about their diet. II
they find themselves situated on
farm lands they feed on vegetables
and grain. if on hay or grazing
land they proceed to destroy much
of the grass. and II they are located
in fruit district they burrow down
among the roots of the trees, killing
many of them and greatly weaken
ing others.

SATAN IS
FAR away;
NOT HERE
CHICAGO EXPERT TELLS DEN.
YER BROTHERHOOD AND EX.
PLAINS HOW TO GO ABOUT
GETTING RESULTS

Satan does not lurk in the pool
table or the dance and the sooner
ministers come to realize this and
make healthful recreation as we'll
as popular education part of their
church programs, the sooner the
world will be saved. according to
Henry f. Atkinson, noted Chicago
sociologist. who arrived In Denver
yesterday for brief stay.
AS secretary of labor and social
service for the Congregational
Brotherhood of America, Mr.. Atkin-
son has travelled all over the coun-
try in the past few years studying
conditions in the various cities and
trying to get in touch with the
laboring men and women of the
community. An essential part OF
the program which he has outlined
for the advancement of the church
in each city is the opening Of club
house which will belong to the peo-
Pile. where they can come and go at
will and find amusement.
AS the population of Denver is
too large to be accommodated by a
single great community" club.
such as has been opened in many
smaller cities, MIR. Atkinson advo-
Gates the opening OF small club
houses in the various parts of the
city. either in the Easements of
the churches, or in the school build
ings or small rented building.
We cant save men by preaching
to them on Sundays" said Mr.. At
. kinson yesterday. We must give
them chance to live in this world
instead OF being satisfied to let
them exist while trying to save in
dividual souls for the world beyond.
The church no longer asks the peo-
pie to join it. Instead 1t joins the
people and Identifies itself with
every movement for their welfare.
There are twenty Congregation
al churches which l have visited re-
Gently in various parts of the coun-
Try which have opened community
clubs. and which are behind every
reform movement-politic social
or economic-which is put on foot
In those cities. Although their
work is not done with the idea of
increasing the church attendance.
because the pastors are satisfied
with the service done in these other
ways. nevertheless. the attendance
in all those churches has Increased
about 100 per cent. And the prayer
meetings are always crowded with
men because the subject for discus
sion is generally a live question of
the day that is bound up with the
welfare of the people.

CUT SALARIES
AT J0HNSTOWN

Johnstown. Dec. 1s.-At the
meeting of the town board Monday
evening it was decided to cut the
salaries of the town clerk and the
police magistrate on account of the
heavy expense incurred by recent
improvements made by the town.
The clerks salary was decreased
$40 month, and that OF the police
magistrate was lowered IS p>>
month.
The mayor OF the town gets no
salary at all, nor do the members OF
the town board. They work for the
interests of the town. and because
of the heavy expense that comes
with the new lighting system and
sewer system they have not asked
for salary.
1t is expected that 500 feet of
hose will arrive here from Denver
this afternoon. to be used by the
volunteer fire company which Is to
be formed. A demonstration will
be given soon after the hose arrives,
probably tomorrow.

w. Doty. Cyrus Neal, F. N. Hall and
