carried on. Daily soundings are made
of the depths of the channel, with
readings of the various meteorological
indications in that vicinity. At
o'clock every morning the substations
telegraph such data as they have taken
to the head station to which they are
attached. Here a map is issued, stat
ing river conditions up to the hour the
reports have been received and pre-
dieting future conditions much as
forecasts are made for snow, rain or
storm.
The station at Cairo is regarded as
the most important in the Mississippi
valley; for it controls, owing to it's
unique geographical situation, not only
the Father of Waters, but the Ohio and
the Missouri as well. On the forecasts
of this station the warnings regarding
conditions of the Mississippi below are
chiefly based.
At the substations gauges or measur-
ing rods, set in the stream, are i'm
portant apparatus in the work. These
gauges measure in length from fifteen
to 200 feet. In ordinary times they
are read every morning at o'clock,
in time of flood at least once an hour.
Cincinnati is said to hold the record
for vafiat ton in one OF these gauges,
a matter of sixty feet.

PLEASURE AND SACRIFICE

An alert little five-year- was visit
ing a city park with her mother for the
first time. She had noticed the beauti-
full red and white swan beats as they
passed through in the morning, and
her mother had promised they should
come back after the shopping was done
and have ride.
Shortly after dinner they stood on
the bridge over the | goon, watchi g
the boats below and listening to the
cry of the barker as he tried to induce
the passing crowds to patrOnize his
swan boats
But when the mother started toward
the boat landing, Little Elsie declared
very vigorously that she cid not w0nt
to go at all, and as her mother urged
her, broke forth into tears.
This sudden fear was so different
from her former eag"rness that her
mother could not u"de~s and it until
she noticed the boatman's call.
He was crying, "Come along, come
along-ride clear around the pond-only
five cents for ladies and gents-children
thrown in!"-Exchange

FORECASTlNG RIVER FLOODS

This year has been a bad one for
floods. The Ohio river, always uncer-
tain, went on one of it's worst ram
Iages. From Pittsburg to cairo havoc
and terror prevailed. Though of course
the rise had been predicted, little can
be done with the refractory Ohio till
the proposed dams and locks, for which
congress has appropriated $64000,000,
are constructed.
1t was in the spring of 1897 that the
United States weather bureau made the
first forecast of great inland flood.
All along the course of the Mississippi
river in scores of towns warning bulle-
tins were posted. The exact date and
extent of the expected rise at any par
ticular point were stated In many in
stances this warning was issued two
or three weeks in advance. But most
people in the towns threatened only
scoffed at what they called the fears of
scientific soOthsayers. only a few took
heed.
Then came the flood, the most over
Whelming in more than half a century.
The havoc created among the lowlands,
the damage done to streets, warehouses
and homes was almost incalculable.
More than 100000 square miles of land
were under water A hundred cities
and towns were inundated. 1t was es-
timated that the wise few who had
listened to the weather men had saved
belongings to the value of fifteen mil
lion dollars.
There was another great flood in 1908.
Twenty-eight days in advance of its
coming the people of New orleans were
warned to prepare for a flood depth of
twenty-one feet. AS a matter of fact
the actual rise at the Crescent City was
twenty feet and seven inches-pretty
accurate calculation. Memphis had to
prepare for a 4O-foot rise, and Cairo.
Illinois, for one of fifty feet. This flood,
so far as quantity of water is con-
cerned, was much greater than that of
1897, but. owing to the fact that the
bitter lesson of that year was needed.
this time only some 1000 square miles OIL
territory were inundated.
In the work of forecasting floods
the country is divided into over forty
river 'stricts, each district in charge
of weather observer. In each of
these districts there are also num-
ber of substations, where the actual
business of watching the streams is
