Cities warmer Than the Country.

Those who happen to live at a little
distance from the heart OF the city, says
Science, must frequently have noticed
a lack OF accord between the readings
of their own standard thermometers and
the published observations of the Signal
Service observer of their locality. The
reason of the discOrd is plain; viz, the
pertrubing action of the heat which the
city emits: and, however gratifying 1t
may be to the outsider to find himself
superior to the Government observers,
it is very little to the credit of the
Weather Bureau that this particular
source of error was not long since recog-
nized and avoided. The remarks OF
Professor Whitney on this subject, as
applied to observations made at Lon
don, are pertinent and convincing. He
saws: at is a well-known fast, that
cities are considerably warmer than the
more thinly inhabited country, other
wise under similar climatic conditions
Statistics prove this to be true; and
there could be no doubt that such
would be the effect of an immense ag-
gregation of population within limited
space, even if there were no statistics
bearing on this question. Many mil.
lions OF tons of coal are burned in and
about London during every year; and
the whole mass of brick of which the
city is built Is heated during the entire
winter, and more or less in the sum-
mer many degrees above the natural
temperature. There can be no question
that conditions such as are here in
Dictated vitiate all observations made in
or near large cities, with view to the
determination of any possible secular
variation of the temperature
