WINTER SNOWFALL
WAS Glow NOMINAL
Abundance Remains in High
Regions, Says Report.

There was a snowfall of rs inches.
OF over l4ia feet, last winter at
the Hehgen Dam ranger station in the
Madison watershed. it being heavier
there than at any of the other stations
in the Montana section, according to a
snowfall bulletin just issued by the T..
S. department Of agriculture weather
bureau.
On the Bitter Root watershed the
fall at Corvallis was so inches, Stew

fem that section is that there is more
81 ow at high attitudes there than since
| 1899 In the Missoula watershed, Race
Track and Dry Cottonwood, both had
the same amount, ia inches. In the
Fiathead watershed Swan Lake re-
ported fall of 1874 inches and the re-
Port is that the snow in the mountains
Is very deep and sufficient for mod
e.ate water supply.
The snowfall for the winter of 1917
and 1918 in the mountain districts of
Montana was less than normal and
considerably less than for the previous
two years. At the end of March very
little snow remained on the ground at
moderate elevations. However the
prospects for plenty of water are fav-
orabte for the reason that in the high
attitudes there was a good fan and at
the end of March very little Of it had
melted. What little melting has taken
place has consolidated the snow into
deep and solid banks and drifts. The
4! catcst depths at high elevations at
the end of March appear to be in the
Bitter Root and the Cabinet ranges
and the least in the Little Rockies.

LIBRARIES AFFECTED

Five Books in Enemy

The order of the state council of
defense on Monday abolishing the use
Of German in the public and private
schools Of the state and also in the
pulpit, together with the removing OF
all German books from public and pri-
Sate libraries will chiefly affect the
university here. Only one church, the
German Lutheran, has occasionally held
services in German.
The high school last week abolished
the teaching of German. The Mis-
soula public library has only five Ger
man books. They are German Bible.
a book containing works of Faust and
Goethe. q book of Heinc's poems.
Hanffs "Marchen' and a book named
"Balladen and Romazen." They have
not been taken out of the library many
times and were gifts. The library
also has a German English dictionary,
but it is not thought that it will come
under the ruling.
At the university library there arc
go books written in German that will
have to be removed.
Stop Glasses at University.
Instruction in German has been dis
continued for an indefinite period at
the State University. The action
went into effect at 1890 o'clock yes
terday, in compliance with instructions
sent to President +. O. Sisson by the
state council Of defense. Though no
instructions to sthe effect have been
yet received at the university it is
reported that the librarian will be re-
quired to remove all books written in
the German language from the library.
Sixty eight students arc registered
in the German classes offered at the
university. OF this number several
arc taking the subject as a major
study, others as a minor. The dis
continuance of the classes will, how
ever not prevent any of the 1913 senior
class from being graduated in June.
Classes viii be substituted in those of
English. French and literature. in
stead of those German classes in which
n large number of students are reg
istered. Such snbsttutions will not
be made for the classes in which but

LINER MAY TAKE
PRESIDENT OVER

The question OF the transportation
OF President Wilson and his party to
France to attend the peace confer
ence is understood to have been taken
UP at a conference between the Presi-
dent, Secretary of the Navy Daniels.
and cambridge Colby. OF the United
States Shipping Board. at the White
House today.
1t was pointed out that the pres
ence of Mr.. Colby, who is a high Of
fetal OF the Shipping Board, indicated
that arrangements were made to carry
the President and his party to Europe
in one of the large passenger ships
under the Jurisdiction of the board.
Although there has been a concert
ed effort on the part of officials to
induce President Wilson to make the
trip on one OF the American battle
ships, it is thought that this proposal
has been rejected by the President
as too elaborate. Secretary Daniels
was at the conference, il was said, to
arrange for convoy facilities for the
