To look at the national budget one could get the impression that America must bribe foreigners with $1,250,000,000 to aid them; that the people are so pooi that the federal government must spend $1.807,000,000 on welfare and social security; that there are so few houses that the gov ernment must build many of them; that American farmers are so destitute that they need $2,- 366,000,000 from the government to exist; that it requires $1.418,- 000,000 to keep transportation and communication working.

A large part of this fell Wednesday when .93 inch came In the form of six inches or more of wet snow. Wednesday night there was an additional .15 inch. The snow of last Thursday came to three three Inches. Weather for the week has been favorable to absorbtlon of w'ater by tbe ground which is not fro zen but pretty well filled with water. Excpet for a minus five degrees last Thursday night the mercury has been betw'een 22 and 28 nights and usually below 40 during the days. Melting has been slow and con tinuous; the roads are clear ex cept during storms. The Dalles received a 17 inch snowfall Wed nesday that blocked roads there for a few hours. Snowfall farther down the Columbia gorge has been deeper. Prospects, as given by weather prophets are for continued warm weather, some rain and westerly winds, w'hlch, if not too warm and strong will make it possible for a large part of the snow now on the ground to be retained. ________ - C i Cattlemen Schedule Annual Meeting The Sherman County Cattle men's association annual meeting was set for February 18th at a recent meeting of the executive committee.
