atmosphere Ia most favorable. cOndit-
ion when other conditions are right.
There can be no rainfall in any guam
tity except when the barometer IS
falling Any conditions favorable to
developing slow area" storms are
favorable to rainfall. Local evapor-
alton may aid this, although the in
ception Of Glow area" storms is a por-
ton of meteorological science far
from being demonstrated as yet. Our
large slow area" storms that bring
our general rains originate far from
Kansas-and generally far to the
north even Of the United States.
Your correspondent writes about
the clouds being attracted downward.
It is an axiom of meteorology that
when the air moves horizontally, no
matter if heavily charged with moist
ure, no rain falls, but if there is an
upward motion Of the air, the moist
ure is carried to higher and cooler
attitudes where it is precipitated
This upward motion is evidenced by
falling barometer, or in other words
'1essening prssure."
Soil Ioosened by deep blowing or
covered with sufficient vegetation
saves moisture and reduces heat rad
iation. Ponds of water and trees
has the same effect, and all these mi
tigate the evils of hot winds. The
same agencies save all the rainfall
and return it to the atmosphere by
evaporation. AS long as there is
moisture in the soil to evaporate there
will be very little hot wind. What
ever conditin ensures the largest
amount Of moisture stored in the soil
cOunteracts most to abate the hot wind
evil.
For western Kansas it is not so
much a question Of increasing the
rainfall as of using to best advantage
what now falls.
Central Kansas did not materially
increase its rainfall since settlement,
but it saves and utilities twice as
much now as when first occupied.
The building of ponds and planting
largely of trees are to be commended,
but to accomplish any noticeable
good the pillow must literally be used,
for so long as there is hard compact
soil lightly covered with vegetation
there will be hot winds.

About Ponds.
"a. R. Hilton in Topeka CapitalJ

ca. R. Hilton in Topeka CapitaI)
Your correspondent ''Zac," of Dodge
City, whose letter appears in this
mornings Capital, says, "The evap-
Grating moisture from these ponds
would make the atmosphere near the
surface of the earth so dense and
heavy that the hot winds from Texas
would be upheld by it," etc. This is
at variance with known laws of phys
icaI science. Moist air is lighter than
dry air-hence, moisture evaporated
at the surface Of the earth ascends.
and dry air, having greater density,
sinks and remains nearest the sur
face, hence the hot wind, instead of
being above the moist air, is ALWAYS
underneath, and on the earth's sur
face.
If hot winds come from Texas.
where do they stay over night. when
the wind ceases to blow and the air is
cool? I think that it has been salts
factorily demonstrated that hot winds
are local, and can exist only so long
as conditions are favorable, such as
high temperature, clear sky and a
hard dry light-colored soil with short
light-cOlred vegetation-an combln-
ing to radIate the suns heat back in
to the atmosphere, Hot winds do
not travel far or long over a moist
surface or one heavily coated with veg
citation. When the hot winds mass
over the bufalo-grass country these
do much damage, but soon exhaust
themselves. Trees and ponds are
helpful in checking hot winds. but
need to be supplemented bv the
greatest agency of all-large areas

hundred and sixty acres can be 50

Of ten acres in extent can be success

ten times more moisture annually.
But evapOrating moisture does not
always bring rain-it simply puts. the

The annual reports submitted to
the national encampment show that
the Grand Army is steadily increas-
ing in numbers and works of mercy.
Its membership was never so large as
it is now, and It's charities are com
mensurate with the organization.
Those who are addicted to vulgar de-
nunciation of the union veterans as
pension grabbers" and Subsidy beg
gars," will do well to exercised self
restraint. The fact that the Organiza-
ton has expended during the last
year 1921, 25O18 for the relief Of 28,-

of its character. The Grand Army is
