Every body believes In Melbourne"
wrote a Goodland correspondent OF

Tho committee of citizens who made
the new contract with him by which

evolved gigantic scheme by which

good will toward men prevails.
Melbourne keeps his secret well. He
will not say how he made his discovery

safe Is that his series of experiments

The rainmalSer admitted that n
scheme ha been submitted To him for
making rain twice month over given
territory in northwestern Kansas. The
details, which the rainmalxer failed 20
supply, were furnished by young
man by the name OF Montgomery. who
sees millions in it,
The season In which the drought is
most seenly felt in Kansas is the late
spring and early summer. After IL
has been demonstrated that Melbourne
can produce rain under the coalitions
which apply To this altitude and
climate, IA contract will be entered into
by which rain will be guaranteed over
limited territory once every two
weeks during May, June and July.
The company which is TO have Mel
bourne under contract will represent
vast land interests, and Eastern in
vestors will pour their money into the
