SAVANNAH. Ca, Sept. BIN
the southwestern section of the
city on Thursday night during a
heavy rainstorm, there was.a rain
fall of frogs. At least that is what
the natives say and they have the
frogs to prove 1t. They are very
small frogs and very lively. They
were not on the streets when night
fell Thursday but they were there
in thousands on Friday morning
and those who have seen them
want to know where they came
from IL the rain didn't bring them.
Several of the frogs have been
caught and exhibited in different
parts of the city as curiosities.

Taft Talks at Independence

INDEPENDENCE, Kan, Sept. Is
President Taft spoke here today from a
platform that stood between two eims
planted in 1888 during the first Harrison
campaign. One tree bore the legend on
a printed card Ben HarriFon; the
other "IIevi P. Morton
i've been studying your history" said
the president, land I know you have TO
come through hell to get to heaven. l
have been in Coffeyville this morning.
This sally to the rivalry between In
dependence and CoffeyvilIe provoked the
crowd to continued laughter.
The president spoke on the need of
uniform laws in the state for subjects
that cannot be regulated by the federal
government He laid special emphasis
on the need of uniform marriage and
divorce laws.
ITS very awkward, said the presi-
dent, for a mansto be married on one
side of state line and not on the other.
Now, we ought to have some uniform
law that would strengthen the mar
.riage laws. II Is possible to make di-
vorce dificult and prevent colusicn in
obtaining it,"

Washington, June 17,-Last bulletin
gave forecasts of disturbance to cross
the continent June II to 81, warm wave
16 to 20, cool wave 10 to %. The spe-
cial features of this disturbance will
be the part it will play in the clos
ling days of the great high tempera-
ture period of June. Its cook wave
will bring relief, start the temperature
downward and cause some rain that
may be the entsring wedge toward
breaking the drouth where it shall
storms will break loose in some places
while this disturbance is passing.
Next disturbance will reach the Pa
cific coast about June %, cross the
Pacific slope by the close of June %,
great central valleys "a to &c, eastern
sections %. Warm wave will cross Pa
cific slope about June %, great central
valleys "a, great central valleys ~.
eastern sections 80
This disturbance will develop more
than usual force and in some places
will bring on severe local storms.
Cooler weather will prevail and
drouth will be broken in some places.
Very cool weather may be expected as
the cool wave of this disturbance
comes in.
Drouth conditions will probably con-
tinue about and south of the upper
great lakes, but on large parts of the
continent the drouth will give way as
July enters. But the crop season of
1911 will be noted for good rains in !
spots while severe drouth prevails In |
others. This condition comes from
thunder showers, also called electrical
storms. General rains that are so
vastly beneficial to the growing crops
have not been expected for this year.
1t is very difficult to locate these
spots where thunder showers will fall
and other spots where drouth will pre-
vail. In fact it cannot be done. All
we can do is to forecast the drouthy
which usually include some
severe local thunder storms.
very much prefer that all my work
shall so out through the newspapers.

Where your paper publishes my work
that is the place to get 1t and II your
paper does not publish my forecasts
you should subscribe for one that does.
During the next twelve months ex-
pect to advance my forecasts rapidly
in efficiency. | now have all the ele-
ments for making forecasts and a lit
tie more experience will add very much
to their value. Heretofore ! have re-
lied on monthly rainfall records. am
now beginning to use the daily rain
fall records and will be much better
able to say what time in the month
nand also in what month the rains will
fall or the drouth will be most severe
or the drouth be broken and the hot
and cold waves will come.
On the plains within 200 miles east
of the Rockies lie the finest wheat
lands the world ever saw. The only
defect is in rainfall Those lands will
produce well about one-third of the
time and when they do produce their
best yields, there is no surer and
quicker way to make fortunes. 1t is
better than the richest gold mines on
earth. | now believe that the years of
plenty on those plains can be foretold.
That great wheat belt stretches 400
miles northward from New Mexico and
Texas to the northern parts of Al.
berta and Saskatchewan in a strip 200
miles wide and covering nearly 300,-
900 square miles. Those vast rich
wheat lands produce best when the
lower valley lands of the Mississippi
produce least because when good rains
fall in those valleys at the right time
of year to make good wheat they have
drouth on the highlands of the plains. 7!
The reverse of this is also true.
| am confident that | could, by do
ing lot of hard mathematical work |
on the rainfall records. select four |
years out of which three great wheat |
years would be assured for those |
plains states.
That method would bring immensely |
rich returns and save the great losses
that come in the drouth years. But !
have not the means to support me in
such an undertaking. The Carnegie
millions are being used up to discover
new and far away clusters of stars
while no one comes to the support Of
he great possibilities referred to
ibove.

widening and the interest is greatly in
creased Larger congregations attend.

and two were united with the church.
The outlook is good. We are already
having good meeting. The evangelist
spoke at the morning service of the
part cody women took in the work of
our Master when on earth. Their
faithfulness and liberality were en-
phasized. He showed them to be the
Lords truest helpers.
Last night he spoke on Christ On
Trial in the Human Heart" and took
the scripture. What shall | do then
with Jesus which is called Christ" as
a text. He preached powerful SER
mon 10 an attentive and appreciative
audience. Stress was laid upon the
fact that Christ was on trial then and
is on trial now before us, but on the
last day we will be on trial before Him
