Clouds and the Weather.

# When two weather prophets diso.
gree does It argue error or inconpe-
tence In either? No, says the author
of Storms and Storm Signals in.
Yachting. The data upon which they
base their predictions do not always
bear one Interpretation. Thus
d Because the clouds indicate weather
In a different manner according to the
geographical location OF the observer,
and also because they are In them
selves but byproducts Of the weather.
and are not causes, weather predic-
lions from clouds at sea should be TAX
en- with plenty Of reservation OF judg-
ment. To say, for instance, that at a
Fred sky at night sailors delight" Is
very tuneful and possibly truthful
where knowledge is conspicuous by Its
absence, but red sky at night may
mean almost anything from a surplus
of moisture In the air, meaning prob
ably rains, to a volcanic eruption 1000
miles away which has sent great
clouds Of dust into the air, causing the
red color by reflection and refraction
Of the light rays. ..$5

Smyrna Eia...

smyrna figs ripen by the beginning
OF August. They are not picked. but
when they reach a certain maturity
they begin to dry. and consequently
they drop on the ground. In the morn.
ing everybody on the plantations goes
around with buckets gathering the
fruit. which they carry to a certain
place where the ground Is covered
with dry leaves and straw (sergei)
and on which they spread the fruit,
exposing It to the sun, allowing 1t to
remain there from two to three days.
It takes about three days to dry the
fg It north winds prevail, as the at
smHosphere is then very dry. II, how.
ever, westerly winds are blowing,
which means heavy dew at night, the
fruit must remain exposed to the sun
from five to seven days. This Is d
dangerous period, as rain or even IA
shower might ruin hundreds Of tons OF
fruit lying on the ground. Heavy dews
sometimes are just as detrimental.
The proper atmosp heric conditions to
insure crop Of large sound, rich figs
are west winds In June and July, fol-
lowed BY north winds In August, and
from then ON an occasional west wind
every five or six days. III

Curious School Customs.

curious manner. The diligent student
is allowed to smoke a cigar during the
lesson. When the whole class has Civ

Mexicans are allowed to light ciga-
rette for the occasion. Needless to say,
the schoolmaster himself smokes a
cigar Of size and quality proportion
ate to his superior position. But the
scholars are not allowed to drink, this
privilege being accorded to the master
only On his desk he always keeps "a
