NOVEMBER THE DRYEST.
Less Rain Fell in Past Month Than In
Any During the Past II Years

Less Rain Fell in Past Month Than In
Any During the Past 7 Years.
November this year was the dryest
month recorded by the weather bu-
rcau in its summary of II years and
the precipitation has been less by a
remarkable degree than in the lowest
record of that time. During the past
month there was a rainfall of just II
inches, while the average for II years
has been 20 inches.
There was only one day on which
there was rainfall to exceed 81 inch
or more and this is the smallest
amount of precipitation of which ac-
count is taken. Despite this fact
there have been IL days, over one
half OF the month, which have been
cloudy. There were nine partly
cloudy and only five days wholly clear.
The statistics recorded above give
some idea of the cause of the great
drought which the country is now
suffering
The condition of the weather has
been remarkable as regards tempera-
ture. The temperature has been more
uniform than is usually found dur
ing the month of November. The
highest temperature was G6 degrees
and the lowest %. The average was
AZ and the average for Il years was
A, making the past November by an
average OF two degrees n day colder
than the average month in the time
in which the conditions have been re-
corded.
The preyailingdirection of the, wind
has been northwest. On November
% the wind came from the northwest.

SANTA CLAUS ON COLD WAVE
Ram, Snow, Sleet and Billiards Are
Promised in December.

Promised in December.
Rev. Irl r. Hicks says December
has in store for most parts of this
country as well as other parts of the
earth, some if not many severe win
ter storms.
First storm period. reactionary by
the LIST well defined change to fall
ing barometer, warmer weather and
areas of rain will be advancing from
the west Change to colder, with rain
turning to snow and sleet, will follow
on the western side of these disturb
ances. Freezing weather will prevail
generally for few days after these
storms.
Second storm period, regular
Change to warmer and from the 9th
/ to 10th general rains will move east
ward over the country. While cleo
trical storms are probable at the first
look for sudden and sweeping change
to much colder, bringing a cold wave
out of the northwestern.
/ Third storm period, reactiOnarY.
The probabilities are that very rough
and unsettled weather will continue
after the preceding period but change
to warmer, with falling barometer and
more decided storms of rain and snow
may be counted on from the 18th to
18Th.
Fourth storm period regular. Gen
eral storm conditions will appear at
the beginning of this period. From
the country eastward, while in all
western and northern parts of the
rain. About the 22nd the storms will
assume the character of billiards in
many parts of the country. High,
cold gales from the northwest will
bring up the rear of these storms,
sending a cold waye into most parts
of the country by Christmas day.
Fifth storm period, reactionary.
Storminess will continue in a general
way from the preceding period but
this tendency will quicken into more
decided storms of wind and snow on
and about the 25th and 26th.
Sixth storm period. About the2Sth
the barometer will fall again, the tenn
perature will rise and as the month
goes out more storms of rainand snow
will move eastward. These storms
will wind up in the opening days of
January and be followed by the regu-
lar change to colder.
