tablish any definite conclusions in regard to the influence of the for est upon this factor
 The wind movement in the forest during the year 1909 was only 52 per cent of that in the park
 The evaporation in the forest from July 1 to October 3l. 1909 was only 70 per cent of that in the park.
 The records for the edge of the forest indicate conditions of tenn perature, wind movement, and evaporation approaching very close ly those of the park.
 The silvicultural significance of the results of this study is: CD that the parks in this region, because of their exposure to frost and excess sive evaporation. are unfavorable to young forest growth; and (2) that in order to insure regeneration on present forest lands heavy cut. tings must be avoided.

INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS
Summary of Investigations Made on Weather Conditions by Forest Ex-
 aminer Pearson at Fort Valley.

The great diversity of conditions as to climate within short distances in this section of the country IS truly remarkable. The recent ex- haustive report of Forest Examiner Pearson in charge of the experi- mental station at Fort Valley, will give the reader some idea of how radical difference there is. In his report he concludes:
 The mean annual temperature for the year 1909 was 1.52 degrees c. (2,74 FL higher in the forest than in the park, while the mean monthly temperature ranged from 0.2 degrees to 2.6 degrees c. (0.36 degrees to 4.68 degrees F) higher in the forest than in the park. The difference between the monthly means is greater during the winter than during the summer. The higher mean temperature in the forest is due mainly to reduction of the minima. The monthly amx- ina are slightly higher in the park than in the forest. The mean daily range for the year was Al degrees c .(8.5 degrees F, less in the forest than in the park.
 To what extent the above condi- tions are due to the influence of the forest canopy upon radiation is a matter which demands further in- vestigation. It is probable that the cold air drainage from the San Francisco Mountains and surround ing mesas constitutes another inn portant factor. Even though it be conceded that the lower tempera ture in the park is due mainly to cold air drainage from the higher surrounding country, it is possible that the effect of this factor on the timbered areas is in turn modified by the forest canopy in dehecting the descending cold air currents. Moreover, the conditions in the Fort Valley park are not abnormal for the majority of parks in this region, for the reason that these parks are, with few exceptions, so situated as to receive the cold air drainage from the surrounding country.
 The only appreciable influence of the forest upon precipitation is in its interference with the normal distribution of rain and snow on the ground. Considerable amounts of the rain and snow collected by the trees crowns are lost by evapor- ation. The snow usually lies deep CT in the park than in the forest during the winter time. but it melts more gradually and remains on the gound later in the forest than in the park,
 The available data on atmospher- ic moisture are not sufficient to es-
