The New Haven Caledonians at Lighthouse Point yesterday afternoon met the crack Ansonia team in the Connecticut Association Football league series and defeated them by 10 0. For some time 1t has been question in the minds of followers of the game as to whether the Calcdo- nlans or the Ansonia team was the better of the two Accordingly yes tcraays game was awaited with great interest by the fans. Ansonia won the toss and played with q strong wind in their favor. Stevens for New Haven Set the game in motion by kicking off for the Caledonans. For the nrst ten minutes play was of a give and take nature, each team playing fast and determined game. By smart piece of forward work the New Haven players carried the ball down the field Stevens dribbling through the Ansonia defense, and scoring the first goal or the match. Shortly after this the To- calls broke away again and Vanentine made q pretty run. He passed to Stev- ems, who scored the second goal. On kicking off New Haven again took the game in hand and had the ball in front of the Ansonia goal, where Ross sent 1t through. This finished the scoring in the first half and the score | h l. fo. nf hA nlans. With the wind in their favor New Haven played the visitors to stand still during the second half Tho local forwards simply played rings around the strangers back d. vision, and kept up constant bom- bardment on the Ansona's goal But | for the hard work of Mulfrey In front | of the sticks the score would have been much larger. Is this period Stew ems added three more goals and Val entine two For New Haven the half backs played very strong game, Smith, Fraser and Coull doing excel lent work. The forwards, including Ross, Stevens, Valentine, Thompson and Clark played splendid game. The backs and goal keeper did what little they were called upon to do in excellent style. The right halfback for Ansonla played a hard game and was without doubt the best of the vis- itors' eleven. The result of the game still leaves the New Haven Caledoni- ans with an unbroken record of wins and adds two points more to their standing in the league table. Lineup and summary:

Where Water Is King
BY H. PAUL DIRECTOR

In this western TeSion, This land Of the
bright and brooding sky, we may give
newer and fuller meaning to the
Pslamist David's words. Il will look
up" For who of us could fail to sense
how completely we depend upon the
waters that are in the armament
above?''
Water is king the world over. But
in moist regions people are not remind
ed of the sovereignty of the aqueous
liquid as we are in the arid west. Here
we are dependent upon rainfall in such
ways as to suffer chiefly from a short
age of II. In humid areas, they are
damaged rather from oVerabundance
of water than from its scarcity. They
labor to get rid of it; we strive TO con-
: Serve it. They watch its increase with
foreboding. We look up in thankful
ness and expectation at every indication
of sky that is mOisture-laden.
King of the Earth.
That water is the chief arbiter of the
destinies OF the earth as a whole is APP
parent when we reflect that il covers
three-fOurths of the surface of the
globe. and that its currents constitute
the grand arterial system of this planet.
But not content with this general pre-
dominance as a liquid, water rules in
In the silent regions of the poles its
frozen masses cover land and sea with
layers that are often mountains high.
This snow and ice layer holds also in its
frigid grip the entire northern sides of
the higher and more inaccessible noun
tain ranges of the temperate regions as
we'll as the highest peaks i'm the torrid
zone. But above all this, and even
more important, it reigns in the gaseous
state with a sovereignty still more alb

fine weather or the gloom of sombeT
skies. and is arbiter even of forces that

Scause the death and decay, of every
]living thing.
Moisture of the Air.
Did you ever wonder why the sky is
blue? It is because of the moisture,
mysteriously, magically suspended in
it. For no one knows just why water
floats and fills the atmosphere. But
since the sky always has this lovely
blue tint, the Vapor of water can never
be entirely lacking from the atmo-
sphere. The moisture will condense as
dew il piece of glass is exposed TO any
current of air warmer than itself Take
any cold substance into a warm room
and it becomes covered with moisture,
for the same reason shat the outside of
a glass containing ice water on a
summer day is quickly coated with a
thin stratum of dew. 1t is only on OF
near the ground that dew forms al
night, because the air next to the
ground is colder than the air higher
up. When the nights are clear, the tenn
perature of the air, instead of dimin-
fishing the higher We go, increases up TO
certain height. A thermometer nine
feet above the soil registers over four
degrees lower throughout most of the
night than one placed fifty feet high

then, that heats or cools the air above
it at night; but is this true IN the day
time also?
Why High Places Are Cold.
We know from common experience
that on the tops of high mountains the
air is cooler than in the valleys, and
that the tops of the highest mountains
are covered, even in the tropics, with
perpetual snow. But why should it get
colder as we get nearer to the sum- the
source of the earth's heat? This change
is primarily due to the action of the
earth's atmosphere. While the suns
rays are passing through the air to
reach the earth, not much of the heat
is retained in the air unless the air is
very cloudy. That is. the soil. or the
rock, of the earth gets hotter than the
air. When the earth has been heated
by the suns rays. il proceeds TO give
out its heat to the cooler air in contact
with it. Now, however, the air can alb
sorb more of this heat, and can reflect
more of it back to the earth, than it can
when the heat comes directly from the
sun. The power of the heat radiated
from the earth appears insufficient to
pierce the atmosphere; and on its re-
turn Journey from the earth toward the
sun, the heat is largely retained by the
atmosphere or is reflected back to the
earth. This is especially true if the at
mosphere contains much vapor OF wa
ter. Moreover, the heat is naturally
greatest where the atmosphere is the
most dense and heavy. But the air is
heaviest in the lowest places, in the
valleys and at the sea level, since in
these places it must be pressed down by
the(weight of all the air that is above
it. Therefore the layers of air that
are heaviest, which are also the low
est. will retain the most heat; while
those that are higher and therefore
lighter, viii retain less of the earth's
heat. and will cit the earth get cold at
great elevations, because of the loss
of the heat radiated from the earth it
self Compressed air becomes hot be-
cause its heat (motion) is driven into
a smaller space. Feel the tube of BIZ

1t is true that we are nearer the sun,

is the atmospheric vapor, then, that
regulates the heat and cold of high and
low places; and the former are colder
because they lack moisture, rather
than warmer because they are nearer
the sun.
Moisture in the Soil.
But with us moisture is king in the
ground beneath as well as in the air
above. Most of the western desert soils
are naturally fertile. They contain an
abundance of plant food, which may
be made available if sufficient water
can be stored in the soil. Usually there
is sufficient rain and snowfall in win
ter to produce fair crops on the dry
land, even when no rain falls during
the growing season, provided, how
ever. that the winter moisture can be
stored. For irrigated farms, we store
water in reservoirs somewhere above
the lands to be irrigated. For dry
farms, we store water in soil reservoirs
beneath the surface of the land. Ali
that is necessary in order to do this, is
to have a uniform soil of sufficient
depth. say, six feet or more, before
reaching hardpan or impervious clay
or porous gravel. A soil alternately
clay, sand, gravel, etc, is not good for
dry farming, since the water is likely
to sink through it, A thinner soil than
six feet will hold the water, but it will
get too hot if the water is kept, say,
within twenty-four inches of the sur
face by a hardpan at that depth. The
water must sink to a considerable
depth in order that it may be drawn
up by the plants as needed.
How much annual rainfall is required
for successful dry farming? 1t has
been shown. that at least nine inches
of precipitation will generally be nee
essary: but it is better to await the
publication of the proceedings of the
arid farming congress before making
any new statements. Meantime, let us
see how much water as rain is really
available in different parts of this
state.
Rainfall in Salt Lake City.
According to the weather records of
Utah, the largest annual precipitation
for Salt Lake City was thirty-eight
inches in 1866. This was an excess of
21.S6 inches above the normal rainfall,
which averages 1919 inches per year.
The smallest annual precipitation since
the weather records have been kept
was in 1890. when the rainfall was only
1902 inches-a deficiency if eli inches
for that year. The figures reveal an
extreme variation of nearly twenty
eight inches between the greatest and
the smallest amounts of moisture fall
ing in the years named. In this city,
the largest precipitation occurs in
March. 90 inches; April, 2.21 inches,
and May, LIZ inches. Next come De
cember with 1.64 inches, October with
la, January with LA. November with
1.36 and February with LIS. The great
er part of the winter moisture falls as
snow, large portion of which is nat
urally stored in the mountains for our
use in irrigation during the summer.
