Records Show Falsity of the
Statement That Conditions
Are Usually Bad"
BY J. CECIL ALTER,
Observer, U. 8. Weather Bureau

I" HAT Old Timer is pessimist for
sure who says it "always"
rains or SHOWS during state fair
and conference week, for the
fact of the matter is, that ont OF the
past thirty.eight October conferences
there have been twenty-five with scarce
~ cloud in the sky during the entire
conference, and without a drop OF rain
or a fake of snow Four other con-
ferences have been held without a
disturbing storm in the daytime, leav-
ing only twelve October conferences
with rain in sufficient quantity to dis
turb lady without an umbrella.
OF the rainy conferences, only three
had rain on each day of the entire
conference, and the rain on one OF
these DAYS was very light sprinkle,
AZ shown in the accompanying table.
Six ''rainyD conferences out of thirty
eight bad two rainy days each and sew
en- of the Erainy' conferences have
had rain on but one of the conference
days, and the quantities in these cases
WAS usually light.
Therefore, it is suspected that the
person who would call the October
conference weather 'bad' - as rule,
would do SO because it is 'bad' for
the dry-farm crops. From 1874 TO 1878,
Inclusive, not q drop of precipitation
marrcd an October conference day;
and from 1893 TO 1S99-Seveu years
in succession, the October conference
weather was the ideal, royal October

First October Conference.

In passing, it is recalled that there
was no conference weather 1T all in
1858, for, owing to the disruption Of
Utah affairs by the coming of John
ston s army in that year, no conference
was held. And while we are remines-
cing. it is of interest to recall the first
autumn conference held in Utah. which,
like most others. was held during fine
weather. OF this conference Apostle
Woodruff (later president of the Nor
mon church) says: Sunday, the 22nd
august, 1870, VIC held general con-
ference. when the public assembly re-
solved to call the city (not yet one
month old) The City Of the Great
Salt Lake, ,, President Woodruff says
later in his journal: 1.-The conference
rcassembed on the 9th of December
(lS4I) and lasted four DAYS. In the
log tabernacle (located where the As
sembly hall now stands one thousand
persons assembled, and chose Brigham

Absence Of Wind.

II is quite the usual thing to get some
hard wiDdstorms during October in
Utah, but the record does not show any
of them on conference days since 1873
So far as the records tell us, there has
been one sleetstorm, which was during
the early forenoon of Saturday, October
6. 1900. Light snow fell during the
evening of the last day of conference
in 1880 October 81. No hard rains dur
ing an October conference arc on
record.

a sort of diversion on Tuesday, Octo-

OUR ADVERTISERS.
(By r, M. b.

A N advertisement that will tell the
n public who you are and what
you sell, is as necessary to the
success of your business as the pay
ing of rent or any other fixed expense.
The fact that you know your trade
and have a good stock of merchan-
disc at fair prices will draw you some
trade but not as much as you will get
if you continuously tell the people in
an attractive fashion. Attractiveness
means good display of type, well
printed upon good paper-clear, bold
facts along with clear, bold type.
Mr.. Merchant. how much business
did you ever give to the manufacturer
who never sent you catalogue,
wrote you a letter, or had a traveller
call upon you? I want you to digest
this whether you have found profit
in patrOnizing the columns of The
Observer or not. A phone call to the
office will bring to your place of bus
mess one who is specially equipped
to aid you in planning your advertis-
ing campaign. His services are free
to you. The space only is for sale.
New announcements worth reading
are by the following firms, some of
them being recent additions to the
advertising columns and others who
have changes of prices and offerings:
c. II. Morris, The Campbell Store,
Harry Marshall, Dr. Gray Phil Be-
gin, J. c. Hayter, The Dallas Variety
store, Dallas Mercantile Co., and the
Fidler Store.
Some of these advertisements are
filled with prices worth your perusal.
Some of them come from advertisers
who have but recently learned the
advantages to be gained from wise
investment, and The Observer ad-
smith urges you to read them.
