as to deserve special mention. The roofs

Rallfall Below Normal.
The early summer presented the char
acteristics common to that season.
Rainfall during this period was below
the normal, the prevailing dryness be-
ing accentuated by high drying winds;
and the supply Of water in the creeks
and reservoirs began to fan off rapid
ly. Fortunately, however a series Of
general storms occurred about the mid
die Of July that replenished the falling
water supply and soaked the parched
soil thoroughly. The striking feature
of the latter part of the summer
was the number and violence Of the
thunderstorms, the electrical features
accompanying them being generally
of a spectacular nature and the winds
of damaging velocity. The attending
precipitation was however, mcommeu-
surate with the violence Of the storms.
The first frosts Of the advancing season
occurred toward the close of the sum-
mer in the more elevated districts of
the state but the resulting damage was
inappreciable.

During the last decade OF this month
