ChenOOk Winds.

The chenook wind is one which blows
over parts of Wyoming, Montana, Da-
kota and other parts of the Northwest,
and has a most beneficial effect upon
the climate of those regions, The che
nook blows from the west-northwest,
never varyingIts course, and rapidly
evaporates or absorbs, without seem
ing to really melt snow or ice which
may lie in its path. The theory usually
accepted as accounting for the existence
of this wind is that it is current of air,
warmed under tropical sun on the
Pacific, flowing along the Pacific coast
towards the north, and DETECTED from
its course by the passes of the Rocky
Mountains But there are in this
theory points which are not easily
reconciled with observed facts, and
William B. Cav, civil engineer sta
toned in Montana, has been making
some observations in the hope of recon
Cling ascertained facts with theory.
He thinks that there is nothing in phys
ical or in meteorological science teaching
that a wind from the west-northwest
could be heated by the the surrounding
temperature or by the climatic condl-
tons of the latitude whence it comes
He became convinced that, even if a
warm wind could originate in the al
most Arctic regions of the Far North
west, it absolutely must be robbed of all
superficial heat in its passage over two
thousand miles Of snow and ice before
reaching Eastern Montana.-Eh Chicago
