Too much emphasis is usually laid on the probable effect of winter snows on the spring floods in the great river valleys of this country, according to the weather bureaus of the United States departmeht of ag- riculture. Most snow melts away gradually and is carried " to the va- rious rivers in such normal fashion that the effect is nut important. Once in a while, in a small river valley, if 'rheavy snowfall that is not densely packed melts rapidly, due to a sud- den wave of. high temperature, and the thaw is accompanied by heavy rain, there will be a flood condition. But the factor which actually causes floods is’ the rain. No serious floods traceable to melting snow alone have been known in the larger rivers, but very bad floods have resulted from the formation of ice gorges. These; are frequently seen in the Missouri} above Sioux, City, Iowa, or in the; Susquehanna, near Wilkes-Barre,: Pa., and in other places where the nal turtsr-hpoeraphy of the district orl, the shape of the river bed is favor-i able to their formation. When ice; actually forms a dam across a river,) holding the water mack behind it,’ trouble may be expected when thei ice breaks‘up and releases them sud-, denlv. I WINTER SNOWS NOT USUAL FLOOD CAUSE "One of the most important fea- tures of the loss of leaders by the rural districts is its bearing on demo- cracy. We of the United States have supposed that we believe in democra- cy. But can true democracy flourish where large numbers offfarmers, In.. borers, or any other group fail to think for themselves and to produce outstanding leaders? Such depletion has probably taken place on a large scale in almost every old country where the people have long been on the soil. That is presumably one rea- son why social classes have become so strongly intrenched sir, such coun- tries, and why democracy is a farce in 1 countries like Turkey and Russia.' Even if the peasants are still capable of producing leaders in as large num- bers as are the townspeople, those leaders do not stay on the farms. De mocracy can permanently succeed only where there is relative equality among all the great groups of socie- ty." ts,,ittltii'd "The persistent loss of leaders." he says, 'Und the resultant slowness and conservatism of the rural population so far toward. explaining why the farmers are continually Aeritieed on the altar of commerce ind manufac- turing.
