Kite Flying in Wet weather.

In company with Prof Moore, chief of
the weather bureau, watched the flying
of one of the large box kites which are
sent up to a height of several miles above
the earth to get records of the air. The
is made of two boxes, containing square
cells upon a wooden framework fastened
together by wires. Tied upon 1t was one
of the recording instruments which
have already described.
The kite was sent up from the revolving
kite house. This is about thirty feet high
and IT looks for all the world like Dutch
windmill without the arms. The whole
side of IL can be opened, and II is arranged
so that 1t can be turned around to have
the door in the proper wind direction for
flying the kite. The kites are sent up
fastened to steel wire as fine as a plano
string and so strong that a single strand
of it will support 20 pounds. Notwith-
standing this, ii Is not as thick as a darn
ing needle The kites are reeled and I'M
reeled by means of an electric motor, and I
was told there were four miles of wire on
the reel today when the kite was let out
II assembled to a distance of perhaps a
mile and half At the present time,
the kites are flown on the first Thursday
of every month at a large number of
weather stations in different parts of the
world, and the records Of the upper air
thus gotten will be sent here for scientific
study and deductions

New Phx.icai Laboratory.

One of the most interesting of the scien-
tific workshops here will be the new physi-
cal laboratory which is now building. This
will be under the direct charge of DR..
William J. Humphreys. of Johns Hopkins
university and late professor of physics in
the University of Virginia. who is also the
chief of the scientific station here. DR..
Humphreys is noted as a physicist, and he
will have here one Of the finest laboratories
of the world for studying the ionization OF
the air upon the precipitation of rain or
snow. By ionization is meant the broken
up atoms of gases which are supposed to
form the nuclei or centers of condensation
of raindrops He will also investigate the
relation of the dust notes of the air to the
same problem. He will measure the
changes in the electrical potential Of the
earth and air, and endeavor to learn some-
thing more definite about the forces oper-
ating in thunder storms. He will study the
chemical compositions of air taken from
various portions of large cities and else
where. and also from the plain In front of
the laboratory and the Loudoun valley be-
low. He will also have his seismic instru-
ments and instruments for measuring the
heat of the sun and for the investigation
of other interesting problems that concern
the practical meteorologist.

cherries TO grow large and juicy. Isn't
that worth watching?"
The little boy nodded his head. He remem-
bered buying cherries I'm the market last
summer, and they were good.
An hour later grandmother came out
and found him still sitting on the bench
beneath the cherry tree looking intently
up into the blossom-covered branches.
THE blossoms haven't flown yet" he
said. in a patient little voice. do you
think there will be any cherries grown
before supper timer
mot until after many supper times, lit

will be days to wait; so run away and
play and the cherries will grow fast
enough"
The next day the petals began fiuttering
down. Gods wind and rain came TO
strengthen the tree. and by and by the
sun painted red and redder the cherries
along the slender boughs. Edmund at last
might taste them. Three OF four days later
ne sat on the bench. holding his first bas-
ket of cherries. his own little basket, quite
full. He was just lifting bunch OF our
big beauties when he spied his neighbor
Effie. coming down the lane. The first
thought that came into his curly head was
TO run and hide. for Efie hadn't any cher
ries. and he was sure he had not enough
for two. Then he remembered that God
had made them and that God wanted his
good things shared.

scripe the delicacy of the instruments al
ready installed.s Take for instance the
automatic recorders, which are sent mile
or so up in the air inside box kites to
chronicle the temperature, humidity and
other conditions of the atmosphere, as well
as to write down the velocity VI he wind
from time to time. The aluminium box
containing these instruments is SO small
that you could put It in your hat; but its
machinery is such that It keeps n record
of all these and other things as long as 1t
is In the air, giving the different Conditions
at every altitude. The instrument in the
box which measures the humidity of the
air is one human hair, and thai the fine
silky hair of a woman. The hair has be en-
so theated that its oily particles are re-
moved. and it records the changes in mos
ture by IT'S expansion and contraction The
thermometer which records the difference
In temperature Is a little metal bow with
a liquid inside, which also expands and
contracts. and all the instruments OK this
kind are such that they must work In
temperatures which vary from 100 degrees
below zero to 100 degrees above It. As the
kite goes up into the air It soon reaches
the freezing point. and the atmosphere
grows colder and colder as it rises. The
ink must be such that 1t will not tresze
and the oil must work down 10 100 degrees
of cold. In the shops here saw instru-
ments for testing such machinery down
to 100 degrees below zero. One. iemem.
