WEATHER SHOULD BE DRY
If Statistics Of Previous Years arr
Authority.

Rainy weather from last Wednesday to
Friday seriously interfered with the
preparations for the street fair, and
there was much anxiety concerning the
weather for carnival week. However,
yesterday the sun shone all day and the
weather bureau reports indicate contin-
ued fair weather.
In this part of Kansas it is a very I'M
common thing TO have much rain during
the first week of October, and it has
never rained to amount to anything dur
ing this week when there was a heavy
rainfall the last week in September. So
every indication is for pleasant dry
weather this week. Dr. Johnson is as
confident of this as if he had already
passed through the week and found it
dry.
But DR.. Johnson has good reasons for
being so sure. He has reports from the
observation stations all over this part Of
the United States which assure him in
making the statement that there will be
little or no rainfall during this week.
Then the records for years back show
that this particular week in October is
generally dry. While the following re-
port shows some rainfall for this period
with two exceptions, where there was
any precipitation at all it was hardly
enough to settle the dust.
In 1899 nc rain from September IS to
October Is
In 1898 no rain until October us

In 1897 no rain.
In 1886 no rain until October e-.15 inch
In 1895 1t rained on the 3rd, 4th. 5th and
9Th. CThis was the only water fall for a
period of three weeks).
In 1894 1t rained on the 1st, but COM
paratively dry remainder Of the week.
In 1898 it rained .02 inch on 5th.
In 1892 no rain.
In 1891 there were heavy rains at first
of the week.
In 1890 practically no rain.
In 1889 no rain.
1t Will be noticed that the years 1895
and 1891 are shown to have been wet
In these two cases the rainy days hap
pened at the first Of October. It being Cry
before and after. But the atmosphere of
southern Kansas has already precipitated
its moisture and We can calculate on
several dry days.

FOR THE LAST EFFORT
Cudahy Committee Meet To-
morrow to Form Plans.
EXPECT TO RAISE AMOUNT
Necessary for the Fund by
Tomorrow Night.

Tomorrow morning the committee in
charge Of the soliciting for the Cudahy
packing house proposition will meet and
plans will be laid at that time for the
final effort toward raising of the amount
required for the bringing Of the Cudahy' $
to this city.
The committee members are confident
that with united force the balance OF
the $4,000 can be raised within day or
even two days at the most and Monday
after the meeting every man Of the COM
mittee will go out to secure the remaining
sum.
Last night about 500 had been secured
in additional to the other amounts re-
ported. This sum was made up Of dona-
tions from business men consisting Of
800 down to So But it all counts. The
sum total to be secured at the present
time only amounts to few thousand dol
lars.
The committee, should they be unable
to meet the entire amount necessary on
tomorrow, will go out again on Tuesday.
They are all enthusiastic over the pro-
ject. A member of the committee said
yesterday: "We will raise the money
necessary to bring the Cudahys here
within the next two days. 1 already
know of some persons in this city who
will give heavily toward the plan, and it
will only take a few Of such people to
make the matter a CO." The members
of the committee have all been busy with
other affairs during the past week and
we have not been in position to work this
thing as we wished. However, by our
meeting tomorrow we will get out and
the matter brought to a favorable close. !"

Exercises Were Held Yesterday
Afternoon In the ArmOry.
The graduating class Of the school Of
agriculture held its class day exercises
in the armory at the experimental sta
ton in st. Anthony Park yesterday after
noon.
The history of the class, from the time
that II entered the school fresh from the
farm in 1897, up to the present hour, was
given by Albert L. Pfeiffer, of Olivia.
Miss Celia Pratt followed with an In
teresting paper on The Art OF Cook
cry"
Improvement Of Farm Crops was the
title of the address given by Alexander
Boss Of Zumbro Falls. He called atten-
ton 10 the fact that, although Minnesota
was supposed to have such a fertile soil
yet the average Of wheat was but 1919
bushels per acre, while the English and
German farmers, with inferior soil to
work upon, succeeded in producing almost
twice as much. The speaker laid the
failure Of so many farmers to the poor
selection OF seeds and to a lack Of knowl-
edge as to the proper methods of farm
ing.
The class prophecy was given by Ger
hard L. Busian, of Dover, in the form
of supposed newspaper clippings dated in
1913 and 1914
The class poem was read by Miss Villa
Wilcox, Of Hugo.
The exercises closed with an address
to the class by Prof. Shaw, who has all
along been known as its godfather. The
graduating exercises will take place at the
school this afternoon at 2 o'clock
