A HELP OR A DISADVANTAGE

THE HEAVY SNOW OF THE PAST

WEEK WAS A HELP FOR SOME AND A LOSS TO OTHERS

winter months. Owing to the production and depositing of the snow, occurring as it does over so large a portion of the earth’s surface, phenomenas of great magnitude and importance take place. Owing to the innumerable reflecting facets of the minute crystals and the quanity of air caught between the crystals, a layer of snow is a remarkably nonconductor of heat. For this reason the covering of snow on the ground forms an almost perfect protection and warmth for plants against the freezing that would occur had their heat radiated into the air. This is one solved reason why the snow fall with which Putnam County was the victim , was a help. Had this snow lost its heat into the atmosphere there would have resulted a freezing period and the wheat and | other plants such as alfalfa, would

have frozen.

i At the center of a tiny flake of snow one might see tiny globules or - tiny tubes in which another very nec- : essary plant food called nitrogen is carried. In passing through the air ,

these small globules collect a certain and that class of ^ part of nitrogeon and as nitrogeon is ! make their way through

small flakes of snow.

plants would be deprived of their foods, had the nitrogen radiated from the snow before reaching the earth, and the same freezing would take place following the melting of the

snow.

The snow has many other advantages in the extreme northern country such as road ways over which to pull sleds and other ways of transportation. Therefore there are many advantages of the snow fall in Putnam county other than just one of natures plans to beautify. Although it is an impending danger to traffic

During the heavy snow which fell in Putnam county from Sunday noon to Monday night, the loiterer who pro bably conversed with his friends, found and heard from nine out of every ten he met, many distastful remarks regarding the seven inches of snow that fell on the 152,600 acres of land in Putnam county. Some said that it kept him from working on his farm, others said it was hard on his crops, and still others stated that it was a blessing that we received the

snow fall.

Then comes the question as to which one was right. Was it a help or was it a disadvantage? To start with scientists say we must know just how much snow the county received as to weight; where there are any plant foods carried by the snow or whether it was harmful to the crops. To begin with there was approximately 30,720,000 tons of snow distributed on the land of Putnam county. To think of it, this does not seem possible but if it all fell at once it could wipe out the entire inhabitage of the tract of land on which it fell. So enoumous is the weight of

this snowfall that it would several hundreds of trains through days to remove it

Then comes the question is it only a plan of nature for beauty purposes or is it any help to the crops? There are several plant foods illvolve(i in the snow and many who think it is a
