1t is an innate characteristic of the
human race to be interested in the
abnormal, and this is particularly
true in regard to the weather condi-
tons. Abnormally warm and cold
periods last, as a rule, about three
days. The mean of the three consecu-
tive warmest days at Kalispell is 74.2
degrees, July 1924, 1900; the mean
of the three consecutive coolest days
was O.3 degrees, November 1921, 1900.
Precipitation.
The average annual precipitation is
1851 inches, and is quite unevenly
distributed throughout the year; all
the months of the year received some
precipitation. The time of distribu-
ton of rain is of more Importance to
crop growth and vegetation than the
total rainfall. One inch of rainfall
is equivalent to about 100000 gal
Ions of water to the square mile.
May and June have the most liberal
precipitation, and February the least.
The spring rains begin about May
-, at time when most needed, and
continue until the middle of June.
The greatest rainfall in "a consecutive
hours was 1875 inches, May IL. 1900.
The average snowfall for this station
is 1873 inches, and was distributed
throughout the year as follows: Jan
uary, 6.8 inches; February, 8.4 inches;
March, 28 inches; April, II; May 2.6
inches: October, 0.5 inches; Novem-
Der, SO inches and December, 9.6
inches.
CIoudiness.

Written for the Bee.

The climate of any place can only
be obtained, after a series of obser-
vations covering a period of sufficient
duration to enable us to eliminate
those accidental or periodic condi-
tons which frequently occur as local
weather changes.
The topography of section ex-
erts, to large degree, controlling
influence upon it's climate and short
resume of the topographic features
of the F1athead valley will furnish a
partial explanation at least of the
moderate climate experienced in
this valley. l am justified in saying
moderate, when we consider that this
valley lies wholly above the 4Sth degree
of north latitude and has an annual
mean temperature OF 43.5 degrees.
The Flathead valley has an average
elevation of about 5000 feet above
sea level. It's surface is practically
level with a gentle and gradual slope
from north towards the south and is,
with the exception of about eight
miles ACROSS the Flathead lake, COM
pletely surrounded with mountains of
various altitude, ranging from foot
hills of 500 to 700 feet above the
surface of the valley upon the north
tn 70 00n f0ot Rv, ho
kootenai range along the east. The
Kootenai range extending north and
south upon the east side of the valley
rising very abruptly to an altitude of
nearly 5000 feet, and the large body
of water lFlathead lake, upon the
south, are the most important topO-
graphic features. This lake plays an
important part in regulating the tenn
perature of the air, and acting as a
reservoir, from which the atmos-
phere draws it's moisture, this moist
ure is in turn precipitated as rain or
snow over the entire valley.
The most important elements COM
pretended by the term climate" are
Temperature, precipitation, clouds
and wind.
Temperature.
The mean annual temperature as
determined from the records of the
weather bureau station at Kalispell
since it's opening-May, 1899, is 43.5
degrees. May and September have
practically the same temperatures.
The coolest month is February with
a mean temperature of 23.4 degrees;
and the warmest is July, 63.7 degrees;
the mean temperature for the remain
ing months are: January 25.6 degrees;
March, 1878 degrees; April 45.2 de-
grees; June 58.5 degreesfi August
57.8 degrees; September 534 de-
grees; October 42.6 degrees; No
vember 1914 degrees; and Decem-
Der 1871 degrees. It is seen that only
the three winter months have a mean
temperature below the freezing
point of water. The highest tempera-
ture recorded at this station is 92.5,
degrees, during the latter part
of June, 1900; the lowest, 10
degrees below zero, February Is
1900; giving an extreme range
of temperature for the year of
1915 degrees. The greatest change
in temperature during any one day
was A degrees, July 10, when the
temperature rose from a minimum of
A degrees to maximum of SO de-
grees.
The variability in the temperature
|. e., the difference between the mean
temperature of any one day and that
of the preceding day, is best calcu-
lated to show the equability of climate.
The mean annual variations is 3.8 de-

PEACE PROMOTERS.

Speakers at the Mystic Gathering Re-
 fleet on the c. A. R. and the Regular
 Army.
 Mystic, Aug, 16.-The sessions to-day of the Connecticut Peace society were more largely attended than on previ- ous days of the meeting. The forenoon session. which began at 10 o'clock and which was presided over by James H. Earle, of Boston, was occupied entirely by addresses the speakers being Frank M Sheehy, of Boston, Charles R. Has tings, of Philadelphia, secretary of the Universal Peace union; Rev. Scott M. Hershey, of Boston, and Rev. Matthew Anderson, of Philadelphia.
 Throughout the addresses ran a thread of criticism of the Grand Army of the Republic the troops of the regu- lar army and what the speakers were pleased to characterize as the "imperl- alistic tendencies of the United States government"
 One of the speakers referred to the members of the Grand Army as pau pers upon the bounty of the govern ment."
 This afternoon there were adopted resolutions memorializing Sunday school associations and peace societies to further the cause of universal peace.

THE GYPSY MOTH.
Circular on the Post Issued by Prof, B.
 F. Rooms of Storrs College.

i Circular on the Post Issued by Prof, B. | F. Rooms of Storrs College. | Professor B. F. Rooms of Storrs Agri- 1 cultural college has sent the following
 circular on the gypsy moth to the state papers:
 Frequent reports find their way into | the papers of the state and others | that a colony of the gypsy moth has | been discovered in this place or that,
 and that the people of the locality are
 much alarmed, etc, etc. All such re- ports as far as have been investigated, have proved to be erroneous as far as the gypsy moth on con- cerned just as the famous Kissing Bug" scare several years ago was all fake. Yet the recent report from Rhode Island that a colony of several acres, we'll established, has been dis covered suggests that it would be well for us in Connecticut to be nthe alert against the pest. All are familiar with Massachusetts experience, and the many thousands of dollars it has cost tllc oIetle lO CUIlpdl It. Op pun NuilSul- tation with Secretary Brown of the Board of Agriculture he approves of my plan and authorizes me to ask the people of the state, whenever they dis cover what they suspect is the gypsy moth, or any other pest, to promptly send me a few specimens with a note as to where they are found, what feed- ing upon, etc, etc., and l shall at once inform the sender whether it is the gypsy moth etc, and if the genuine gypsy moth does appear get the state authorities after it immediately.
 DIRECTIONS FOR SENDING.
 Select dozen or so of the specimens, and enclose them in a small tin or wooden box with few leaves of the plant upon which they are feeding and mail to my address, F. Rooms, Storrs, Conn. Do not punch holes in the box for ventilation, no need of that. Do not send in envelopes or frail boxes, as these are apt to be crushed in the mails and the specimens ruined or allowed to escape.

TRANSFORMATIONS FEATrREs,

The various classes of tickets, suiting the convenience of tourists, and the special features in connection there with offered by the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, give an exceptional opportunity to combine with trip to the exposition, visit to large number of prominent scenic points.
 In the use of the low-priced tickets stopoyers are, of course, somewhat re- stricted but holders of the season form may enjoy this privilege practically ad- libitum, while such well known locali- ties as Niagara Falls, Thousand Isl ands, Montreal, Lake Champlain and Lake George resorts with Delaware Water Gap and Mauch Chunk, appeal strongly as desirable points of vista- ton.

FIRE IN THE NINTH WARD.
Barn of Richard Heft Had a Marrow

Barn of Richard Heft Had a NarrOW
 Escape.
 The barn of Richard Heft, carpenter and builder, residing at No 90 Thomp- son street, had a narrow escape from destruction by fire last evening. The barn is a two-story one situated on the lot at the near of the house. On the east side of the barn are the stalls and nn the west side a place for wagon and buggy. About o'clock last even ing James F. Dixon, also living in the same house, smelled smoke. An inves- tigation showed a fire in the buggy, which had large cushions and high stuffed back. An alarm was immedi- ately sent to engine house No. 6, which responded quickly, and the chemical soon put out the fire. MT. Heft was away from home at the time. He is building a two-family house on the next %1ot west of his residence, and had a lot of holdings and timber stored directly over the buggy. The workmen had also left their tools and chests in the barn. Beyond a slight wetting there was no #damage to the latter. The horse was taken from the stall as soon as the fire was discovered The origin of the fire is supposed to be due to part of cigar left in the buggy or the careless use of matches.
 It is fortunate that the fire was dis covered early, as later at night, or with more headway, considerable loss would have occurred.
