DRIEST OF NOVEMBERS
Rivers Low and Wheat Fields Are
Parched

The month just closed, was the
driest November on the local record
and. with one exception, the driest
month Kansas has experienced at any
time of the year since records were
begun in 1887, according to the de-
tailed summary Of the weather bu-
reau issued by s. D. Flora, state me-
teorologist. The report shows that
but .O1 of an inch fell at Topeka.
Combined with October preceding
it made the driest two month period
in seventeen years.
The river at Topeka made new
low record, when the stage dropped
to 2.6 feet on several days as a re-
suit OF the general absence Of mois-
ture in the watershed. The Smoky
Hill is at its lowest mark both here
and in western Kansas.

piver Lowest in l6 Years

Salina Union The water In the
Smoky Hill river today reached the
lowest stage in 10 years, according to
Henry Brooks. vice president OF the
Western Star Mill Co. The water
began receding Saturday, observers
state. and since that time the decline
has been rapid.
Mr.. Brooks ascribes the low water
level to the drought. Few springs
feed the river, the water supply com
ing from smaller streams emptying
into it. Mr.. Brooks states that the
turbine wheel in the pit at the dam
has not been operating for the past
9 weeks.
The low stage OF the river is also

Of the water, 1t Is almoset impossible
