This great drought may begin lit
tie earlier or little later than indi-
Gated, 1t may continue well up into
july but large sections will get good
rains some Hme In July. BY proper
cultivation farmers can pull their crops
through the June drought and where
the heavy. rains OF July strike they
will be able to make good showing
up to the last of July.
In above chart the trebel line rep
resents normal temperature forecasts.
Where It goes above the trebel line
temperatures are expected to be high
er. Where IL goes below treble line
temperatures will be over. The broken
zigzag line Is rainfall forecast. AS it
goes higher indicates greater proba-
bility or rain and where it goes low
er the reverse Dates are for meridian
80. Count one or two days earlier for
west of line and as much for east Of
1t because weather features move from
west to east.

Rainfall of June will be of immense
Importance. A great and general
drought will prevail east of Rockies.
The exceptions will be Cuba and
southern Florida, southern Texas,
southwestern Louisiana, parts Of Mary
land, Virginia, South Carolina spots
in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and illinois.
The drought will be general while
the exceptions will be ony small Sec
lions. The worst part OF the drought
will cover northeastern Texas, Okla
homa, Arkansas. eastern Missouri,
southeastern Iowa and then a broad
belt northeastward including all the
northern states, from the Dakotas
eastward and all the provinces from
Manitoba eastward. I am in doubt
about the western provinces west of
Manitoba and the states west of the
Dakotas. From Des Moines north and
west, in the state the drought will be
severe east Of the Rockies.

peared not only in the audience as chief
guest Of the king and queen, but also
on the musical programme i'm the dual

the German emperor, king Of Prussia.
Wilhelm III. The following English
translation of the words is given:
Hail! Aegir, lord of pillows,
Whom Nick and Nix obey;
To thee in morn's red dawning
The host Of heroes pray.
We sail to dread encounter;
Lead us DER surf and strand,
Through storms and crags and break
ers,
Into our foeman's land.
Should water sprites threaten,
CIR If our bucklers fail,
Before thy lightning glances,
Make thou our foemen quail.
As Frithjof on Ellida,
Crossed safely DER the sea,
On T. our Dragon shield us.
TT ~ons, who call on thee.
When hauberk rings on hauberk,
In battles furious chase,
And when the dread Valkyrie
Our stricken foes embrace,
Then may our song go sounding,
Like storm blast out to sea.
with dash of swords and buclxlers,
Thou, mighty Lord, to thee.
