Signal Service and AgricnIture.

EDS. RECORD UNION 1t is presumed that
the object of the Signal Service is to render
material aid to commerce and agriculture.
| am not prepared to say, nor in fact do |
know, the beneficial effect of this institu-
! ton. on commerce, but | do know that as
far as agriculture in this locality is con-
cerned its effects are equal to zero True
the " weather indications appear on the
bulletins regularly, but of what use are
they? | will venture to say that there is
not one farmer in thousand that can by
inference reduce these scientific hero
glyphic representations to basis of use
or common sense.
The prosperity of this State depends
largely upon the success OF the grape crop.
The grape, as every one knows. is subject
to injury by frost, especially at this time of
the year. Now if "probsn is to be of any
use to the people of this State at all-espe-
cially to the agricultural interests-woud
we not expect that probable and "pre-
cautionary information would be regu-
larry made public, so as to render efficient
a costly system, if efficient il can be ? As it
is, the only safeguard possible is for the
interested party to be Signal Service
bureau " on his own hook" by watching
all night, but we can do this well enough
without the Signal Service. Such little
points as directions how to test the accu-
racy OF thermometer: at what degree to
start the fires; the difference in degrees
between hol ling the thermometer three or
five inches from the ground and two to
three feet. ETC., etc, would be in order. It
would be in order to speak plain English
and use no outlandish hieroelyphics.

sections of the Southern States the service
gave special agricultural information.

tlemen of the Signal Service Bureau, let's

Sergeant Barwick,s Report.


The northerly wind of Yesterday appears
to have reached velocity of and exceeding
% miles an hour at only two Signal Service
stations along the Pacific slope, these
being Sacramento and Keller, the latter
registering maximum velocity of 40 miles
per hour, while in this city it reached sc
miles per hour as the highest velocity. Be-
tween o'clock Sunday night and o'clock
Monday morning maximum velocity of
- miles per hour was reached: between 4
A. NJ. and y NJ. yesterday, SO miles, and
from II NJ. to o'clock last night Sc miles
per hour was the highest registered. The
average velocity from o'clock Sunday
night to II N. yesterday was so miles per
hour, which was quite high average for
so many successive hours
A great many citizens complained both
on Sunday and yesterday about the wind
being chilly, although the temperature of
the air by the thermometer was higher
| than when a southerly wind was blowing,
but the dew point of the atmosphere is
| really the temperature that one feels, and
during the north wind Sunday and yester-
day it ranged from $50 to Az, which was the
| actual temperature we felt, thereby chilling
the body considerably. The dew point
shows the evapofating power of the at
mosphere. A wind that causes rapid
evaporation produces a greater degree of
cold-that is, the perceptible temperature
felt by the body. The dew point, with a
SOUTH erly or a moist wind, is very close to
the temperature of the air, while with a
dry wind it is far below it. For
instance, yesterday the difference be-
tween the temperature of the air and
the dew point was from zoe to 25o.
while the same velocity of a southerly
wind would cause the difference to be not
more than from GO TO 80. Wet one hand
and go into the dry noriherly wind and see
how much colder it will become than the
hand that is perfectly dry, which is an ev-
ldence that the evaporation of water pro-
duces cold, which is practically demon
strated In the case of the wet hand and
constantly demonstrated in The Signal
Service by the dry and wet-bulb thermon,-
eter. That is, we always keep one Their
momeer covered with a hollow wicking
with one end in water. By the capillary at
traction the water travels up the wicking
and keeps the bulb of the thermometer al
ways wet; by the evaporation of the water
around the bulb of the thermometer. pro-
ducing cold, that particular thermometer
reads from half to 15o more than the
thermometer that is kept perfectly dry.
When the atmosphere is dense fog both
thermometers stand alike, showing the air
at that time to be completely saturated and
no evaporation is going on.
There is high barometer in Oregon and
low one in California, and falling from
Tatoosh to San Diego, with northerly
winds from the straits of Juan de Fuca to
the Mexican line. As long as such a high
barometer continues north of this State and
low one in this State, just so long will a
north wind blow; the greater the differ
ence in the barometer the faster will the
wind hurry along toward filing the vacu-
UNI caused by the low barometer.

hand. and in an iRsolent manner demanded

Just as he was finishing the last speech the
husband of one of the ladies, former
hotel proprietor, came out, and told the
spotter he guessed he would spot him. Suit

The newspapers are freely discussing
whether or not Speaker Gibbs is ineligl-
BILE to the office of governor, the last
legislature having increased the salary
of the chief executive of the State from
81 $500 to S., 900. Mr.. Gibbs has resigned
his seat in the legislature, presuming
that that act will release him from the
provisions Of the constitution which
provides that mo Senator or Represen.
tative shall hold an Office under the
State, which had been created, or the
emoluments of which had been increas-
ed during the session of which he was
u member, until one year after the ex-
piraticn OF his term of office in the leg
islature." 1t is difficult to understand
how Mr.. Gibbs hopes to have his disa-
bility removed by SIMPLY resigning his
seat as a Legislative member and speak
er of the House. When the salary of
the Governor Vas increased he Was a
member OF the legislature, and his term
of office, for which he was elected, does
not expire tor nearlya u Yet. And
# reports be true, MIR. Gibbs had his
optics Oh the su~Dernatiuiiai seut beiure
any move was made to increase the
salary. But whether or not Mr.. Gibbs
- eligible under the constitution through
increasing the emoluments of the office
to which he aspires, will make but little
difference with his candidacy. for the
position is practically bevond his ability
to fill. When the convention meets, j,
is more than probable that his name
will not be found among the seriousl y
considered candidates.
