Everything that makes for friendship and love

trying to introduce into this country. The "card

One Of the Weather Bureau experts in Wash
ington, Professor Alfred J. Henry. has given
black eye TO the widely prevalent belief that
evaporation from the Salton Sea accounts for
the remarkably heavy rainfall in Arizona dur
ing the greater part OF the last two years He
calls attention to the fact that the downpour
really began about three months before there
was any serious lnundation of Southern Cali
fornia from the Colorado. and then says that the
excess above the normal precipitation through
out the territory in 1905 represents a volume OF
water twelve times as great as that which ac-
cumuIated in the salton basin. If any evidence
in sur-rebuttal can be presented. it is now In
