will, in the future report the precipita-
ton at the close of the record week,
that is, the week end on which report
is made to Section Director of 4. S.
Weather Bureau which is on Friday.
Therefore the weekly reports to both
papers will be for the week ending FRI
day preceding publication. Thus both
will get the same, which is not the case
where you publish on different dates,
and rainfall occurs between dates and
is reported, as was the case last week.
The total precipitation for the week
ending Friday the 10, was l.76 inches.
Total for the month to that date 2.77
inches. Total for May 4.45 inches. +.
