People who remember the Irish famine
IN l94o-47 will recall the fact that it WI.
caused BY the destruction of the potal
crop fer two successive seasons. The de-
struction was most complete in 1847, and
the greatest suffering was in that year.
The early part ofthe season was cool and
backyard, 50 that the potato crop was at
least two weeks later than usual on the lst
OF August. Then the weather suddenly
changed to intense heat, with copious
falns and an unprecedented Development
of electricity i. the air. SIX heavy thQ..
der storms swept over Ireland Within a
lew days, aud within this time the grow
ing tubers rotted in the ground. Whole
tracts Of promising fields were lett without
a single sound potato, and the food Of Ire
land, already let scant bY the partial fail
ure OF the previous year, was almost wholly
swept away. These matters are. interest.
ing from the fact that the present season
IN ireland has been almost a precise repe.
tltlon OF the ons Of I847. May and June
were cold and dry, the latter part Of July
has been warm and wet, with a highly
electrical condition Of the atmos. here.
The potato rot has begun, but it was
hoped, up TO last accounts, that the
nllght would be limited TO The southern
counties.
