Trade Winds.

The causes Of the trade winds are the
displacement OF the air at the equator
and the motion Of the earth. The cold
air from the poles is constantly flow-
ing toward the equator. thus produc-
Ing northerly winds In the northern
hemisphere and southerly winds In the
southern. These winds are detected
from their natural course, however. by
the movement Of the earth as 1t re-
wolves on its axis from east to west.
and as the rotation OF the earth Is
more rapid at the equator than else
where it happens that the speed Is
there so great as to outstrip the, move
ments of the air from the poles, force
them into another direction and give
rise to the currents known as the trade
winds.-New York American.
