FOREST SERVICE COOPERATES
WITH THE WEATHER BUREAU

PORTLAND. ore. Dec. lS.-A CO.
operative arrangement has been made
recently between the Weather Bureau
and the Forest Service. whereby some
Of the forest rangers are to take
monthly readings OF the depth OF the
snow in the remote mountain regions
Of the national forests.
It has been difficult. In the past.
for the Weather Bureau TO ascertain
the extent OF the snow fall in these
high regions. Not only are the noun
tain areas sparsely settled, but they
are little frequented. especially in
winter.
BY this plan OF cooperation. some
forty rangers in Oregon and almost
as many in Washington will make
regular observations. The Weather
Bureau has supplied each ranger with
one or two snow scales. This instru-
ment is simply a graduated rod s to
IL feet long. and is set up in a rep
resentative locality. The ranger will
visit each snow scale in his district
once a month. and read the depth OF
the snow as recorded by the scale.
Some OF the scales are set in high. in
accessible places. which will necessi-
tate a climb OF five or six thousand
feet. In one or two cases. IL will
take the ranger two days to make the
circuit OF his snow scales
