SNOWFALL LIGHT
in TAHOE REGION

Last reports received by the wealth
er bureau from Tahoe station con-
tanned the information that the snow
cover there was twenty-five inches
deep on the last day of the year.
1t has not been the practice of the
weather bureau to issue bulletins on
December snowfall and the records
therefore do not show normals for
that month, but it was stated at the
weather bureau today that his is
far below he average. The measur-
ment was taken Immediately after
a storm and the snow had not had
an opportunity to settle. On De-
member BY, 1922, the snow cover was
forty-eight inches deep at that sta
tion and on the corresponding year
1t was thirty-four inches deep

TO GET AUTOS
ON TAX LISTS

Methods of getting Nevada's auto
mobiles on the tax roll were discussed
at length In the tax commission
meeting held in the Governors office
at Carson Monday. The fact that
more than $1,000 automobile license
plates were purchased from
the secretary of state last year
while approximately only half that
number were placed on the tax rolls
give the commissioners considerable
concern. A method whereby the
secretary of state will keep the tax
commission and the county assessors
advised of the auto licenses issued
and thus enable the county tax col
leetors to get the property on their
books. will be worked out and given
a trial.-Carson News.

AUTO SMASH ON
RENO HIGHWAY

Two automobiles were badly wreck
ed so feet of fence was torn down
and an electric light pole was snap
ped off near the ground Sunday wnen
a head-on collision occurred on the
Reno-Carson highway near the old
Wright ranch near Huffakers, reports
the Reno Journal.
Pete George, Carson Valley In
dian, accompanied by two other per
sons turned into the highway from
the old Glendale road and was
travelling south In his Chevrolet. A
Cadillac car owned by c. Kyle OF
Sparks, the drivers name not known
to the police, was headed north and
the two cars came together, as a
result, 1t is said by officers who made
the investigation of the Cadillac be
Ing on the left side of the road.
When the Cadillac smashed into the
Chevrolet 1t headed directly for the
roadside and tore down about 80
feet of fence. Several pickets pierre
ed the radiator. Before the car could
be brought to a standstill it struck
a large electric light pole and snap
ped II off close to the ground.
No one was injured with the ex-
ception of the driver of the Cadillac
who received a cut on the hand from
broken glass.

WATER MAY Be
SHORT This YEAR

The present prospects for an
abundant supply of water for the ir-
rigation of crops in Carson Valley
during the coming season, Is not as
encouraging as it could be. With
less than three feet of snow now on
the ground in the watershed of the
Carson river an amount far below
normal. Coupled with this, weather
experts have predicted that January
would be a dry month and indica-
tions bear them out in their pre-
dictions.
Farmers tell us that 1t is the early
storms inthe mountains that really
count and with early SHOWS a feeling
of security abounds. The snowfall
during the past few years has not
been above normal and II anything
1t has been less. Even with a
normal runoff there has been no
real suffering by agriculturists in
Carson Valley for lack of water but
1t has required careful distribution
to prevent a shortage
In speaking of present conditions
a few who are optimistic calls at
tention to the fact that some of the
heaviest storm of which there Is
record occurred during February
and March. Late storm may not
pack snow In the deep canyon as
well as early storms, but that Is no
sign that dry year is looming be-
cause of the present shortage. Feb
ruary and March will bring plenty
of snow these men predict and there
is nothing to worry about, which is
probably correct.
There never has been a real water
shortage in Carson Valley and 1924
is not apt to be an exception to that
rule which has stood for sixty years.

terfered with range feeding in North
ern Nevada, live stock is reported in

conditions to be in good shape all
over the state. Temperatures for the
week ending last night continued far
below normal, the report says.

eeding week. The lowest tempera-
ture for the week was twelve de-
grees below zero, at Elko. The low
est at Winnemucca was two degrees
below zero. and the lowest at Reno
was ten degrees above zero. There
was considerable cloudy weather.
but precipitation was light and scat
tered.
Snow depths on the ground in the
mountain districts remain about the
same as reported last week, the
slight increase In snowfall being OFF,
set by settling. A slight increase Is
noted in snow depths reported in the
mountains of Elko county. but there
was no increase in depths reported in
the Sierras.

lures and the snow cover on foot

cellent for sheep. Cattle and sheep
are reported to be in good to ex-
cellent condition in all sections of
Nevada
Winter grain is reported to be in
poor condition, and fall sown rye is
frozen in patches In the vicinity of
WA where the snow cover was too
light to afford proper protection
Roads are unusually good for this
season of the year. because of the
light snowfall. There are few
mountain districts where roads are
not passable and valley roads are
mostly In fair to good condition.

In the double-header basketball
game played here Saturday night the
Douglas girls defeated the Yerington
team by the decisive score of 26-5,
while the Douglas boys, although de-
feating Yerington by score of 26-
% by the score kept by Hans Jepsen,
forfeited the game to the visitors,
a condition brought about by careless
score keeping of the Yerington Of
fetal.
The Douglas girls romped all over
the Yerington visitors and at no time
was the results of the game doubtful.
The local girls played skillfully and
their team work was faultless. They
defeated Yerington by wider margin
that did the crack Reno team. This
leads to the belief that the Douglas
girls will hold a high record before
he season ends.
In the boys game Yerington and
Douglas proved to be evenly match
cd. Both teams played corking
good game and because of the
close score, 1t became exceedingly
interesting.
At the end of the game 1t was an
neunced that Douglas had won by a
score of 1925. Later in checking up
the two score books, the Yerington
official had 27-25 in favor of Yering-
ton. One Yerington player was cred
tied with two free goals, and the
player admitted that he did not make
them. This put the score a tie. For
lack of proof, the referee ordered
five minutes more play. The Doug
las boys had already changed clothes
Coach O'Brien, believing the record
kept by Hans Jepsen to be absolutely
accurate, refused to go on the floor
to decide the unreliable score kept
by the Yerington official. preferring
to- forfeit the game. which they did.
II is unfortunate for both teams
that faulty score-keeping developed.
Such instances does not tend to de-
yelop the friendly relationship that
should exist 1t has. however. re-
suited in the fact that henceforth
a more careful system of score keep
ing will be developed.
