The trumpeted successes of the ''cloud-com-
pelhng experiments are stoutly denied by a
Chicago newspaper man who was on the spot
This representative of the Farm Implement
Ne,cs, who tells his True Story of the Rain
makers in Texas" in his own paper, says that it
is probable that more atmospheric conclusion
was made by the jack rabbit hunters in the
vicinity in one day than was caused by the
combined efforts Of the rain-makers. He dis
poses seriatim Of the claims made by and for
the experimenters and shows that while the
rain-maker might have been success at some
thing else he was not success at rain making
This is too bad Taken in connection with the
statements of scientists it disposes of a fad
that would have been a great thing if at the
same time it could have been fact.
