Dairy Cowsin US

According to investigators Tn the department of agriculture. the average net cost of raising a dairy heifer 1 year old on Wis consin farm is S39. g and of 9 year heifer S61.41. These figures are applicable to other dairy dis tricts in the North and East where land values are similar to those in Wisconson.
 There are in the United States over 21.OOO.OOO dairy cows. These figures give some idea of the importance of this economic problem to the country as a whole, for these cows must be replaced every few years.

 If the foreman of any gang finds that one of his men is not doing satisfactory work, instead of dismlssing the individual out right, he must send him to a clearing house where his case is investigated and he is given an other trial in some other depart ment, unless he is found to be wholly inefficient. These shifts may take place a half dozen times before the man is finally let out or retained.
 The company is determined that the additional money receiv- ed under the new plan shall be devoted to reasonable purposes. In order to determine this a large number of investigators are em- ployed. This plan was followed in order to secure men who had already demonstrated their ability to handle men successfully. The investigators get on intimate terms with the men they are studying and learn to know the conditions under which they live and how they spend their time and money. If it is found that a man is not proftIng by the addi- tlonal money he is receiving he must prove that he can or else he no longer participa tes in the profit sharing plan.

SNOWFALL IN THE
 WHITE MOUNTAIN

Snow-dop is still beng con- piled by the United States wea- ther bureau. by Section Director Briggs.
 In the White Mountains. where a survey of a representa- tive area was made, March q, 27 the snow on the north slopes ranged from a trace at the 5000 foot level to about 50 inches at 10. 900 feet, while on the south slopes there was but little snow below 5000 feet and at 10000 the depth was about 15 inches. The extensive flats of high ele- vations situated along the Little Colorado Divide held from 20 to 30 inches of snow. The average of a large number of density measurements gave an equiva- lent of 0.33 inch of water for one inch of snow. As no exact data for this section have hereto been secured, the lower limits of snowfields in an average season can only be approximately as- sumed from the reports of forest officials and others who are fam iliar with conditions Tn past 'yeIrs. From these it is estimat ed that the average snow line at the end of March is probably be- tween 500 and 1000 feet lower than that of this year which would mean a vastly greater ex tent of snow area oyer the water shed.
 Reports indicate that the snow conditions on the Blue, the Gra- ham. and the San Francisco ranges are about the same as in the White Mountains, while on the Chiricahuse the depths are somewhat less. There is little or no snow left in the Tonto and the East Verde watersheds. i Drifts from 2 to 4. feet remain on the plateaus north of the Colorado river. A few inches remain on the Huacbuca noun tains.
 The streams, swollen from the. February rains, subsided toI moderate stages soon after the beginning of the month, and thereafter maintained a steady flow.
 The run-off into the Roosevelt reservoir amounted to about 73.- 900 acre feet, as compared with 85,0O0 acre feet during March, 1913. Last year, although there was much more snow to draw from, conditions were. distinctly unfavorable for run-of, owing to the persistent cold. Rep.
